Great Pyrenees puppies and dogs in Arvada, Colorado

Daisy, great pyrenees, female, 9 yo, 95 lbSweet Daisy was surrendered by the breeder because she was not fit for breeding any more. She spent her life in a kennel with a dog run and was quite cautious at first to go cross country in our big yard. Now she enjoys the freedom to run and the smell of rain and grass. Good with dogs. She is super sweet, calm and a little shy at first. She would love to be part of a family at last. She is our favorite and brings lots of joy to everyone she meets! Daisy needs a fenced yard with least 5' tall fence as she can run very fast and far. Adoption fee $325.

We are a non-profit organization and we are completely 100% volunteer run. We DO NOT have a shelter and only approved applicants can make appointments with our foster homes to meet the dogs we have.Our volunteers will not discuss dogs we have available for adoption UNTIL you have an application on file and are approved to adopt."I like big dogs and I cannot lie" If you're singing this remix, you don't want to miss out on Kaya -- 86lbs of fluffy perfection! Personality | Kaya is a sweet and loving girl with a smile and soulful eyes that make anyone who meets her fall head over heels! She loves to be by your side and give you hugs! She will jump up on people, but in a gentle way without putting her full weight on you, so she doesn't knock you over! She's a typical large breed that doesn't realize she's a large breed. ;) Her foster family is teaching her that she doesn't get pets and attention when she jumps and she's learning what "down" means. She loves people and will let out happy whimpers when her foster family gets home. She has a lot of love to give to whoever is lucky enough to adopt her and clearly gets attached to her people quickly. :) Her breed is unknown, but she could easily be a purebred great pyr based on her beautiful white coat, giant size, and calm demeanor. Anyone interested should read up on the breed before adopting. Don't miss out on this amazing girl! Story | Rescued from a NM shelter.Other Dogs | She is friendly and playful with small dogs and large dogs. She prefers to be fed separate from other dogs. Cats | She is fostered with a cat. She loves the kitty and has been gentle with him. Children | Friendly! She's very calm and likes to calmly sit by her humans for pets. She's already eye level with most kids so she probably wouldn't jump on them and is calm enough that she likely wouldn't accidently knock any children down when excited. Her excitement usually comes in the form of getting right up next to you for pets! She's also been very tolerant of her foster mom bathing her and brushing out very matted hair, which means she likely will be very tolerant of little kids being in her space.Training | Kaya is a very intelligent dog. She is quickly learning basic commands like sit, down and stay. She sleeps through the night in the crate as long as the crate is in the bedroom where she can see you.Kaya hasn't been destructive at all and has done fine when left roaming the house alone for a few hours. She does like to counter surf (and can reach everything), but all she has grabbed from the counters are dishes to lick clean and hasn't chewed any of them up. She is the perfect motivator to wash the dishes instead of letting them sit in the sink! She will bark when she hears loud noises outside or someone knocks on the door, which is typical for her breed since they were bred to guard. Interested adopters should read up on the breed and understand their tendency to bark to scare away predators and protect their livestock (aka their humans)!Leash | She walks very well on the leash and it's usually a "loose leash." When she does occasionally pull, it isn't with her full strength. So far, she has never pulled hard enough where it's difficult to keep hold of the leash, despite her size! She walks much better on the leash then her much smaller foster brother and is mostly just happy to be by your side. She has not shown any reactivity on the leash towards other dogs, squirrels or people and probably would do just fine tagging along on hikes and to breweries! Activity Level  Low - medium. Great Pyrenees require regular exercise and mental stimulation. They are bred to protect livestock and are very loyal to their families. She has done well with a few 15-30 minute walks a day and mostly just wants to hang out by your side. She usually naps on the wood floor near the humans, probably because it's cooler then the dog bed with her thick coat! Health Notes | Healthy! She is up to date on vaccinations, spayed and heartworm negative! She has a beautiful, white coat and will need regular brushing to keep it from matting. She's very tolerant to getting groomed, even when brushing out sensitive spots. She was underweight at intake, but has a healthy appetite and is quickly getting where she needs to be. She hadn't been weighed recently, but she is probably heavier than 86 lbs now. Thank you! | Adoption Donations |  Our adoption donations are $475 for dogs 8 weeks to 1 year, $425 for 1-6 years, $375 for dogs 7-10 years, and $250 for 11+ years of age.

This cowboy is Paul ❤️ Paul moved in a few weeks ago after being dumped at pet cemetery with his siblings & a ball- A ball that we quickly learned was blocking his tummy. Surgery took place & with some recovery time Paul has really shown himself to be more than just good looks. He has been on neighborhood walks, social excursions in town, hikes, & fly fishing outings. While these activities hit a solid comfort zone for Paul, his willingness to participate is probably because he wants to be with his people & foster brother, Trout. Paul truly is one of the sweetest puppies ever to stay with us. He prefers to spend his time doing nice things with nice humans/dogs to have the nicest days. When Trout offers the regular activities (like chase & wrestle), Paul participates.He usually will not initiate. He only plays defense (no offense), which has the effect of quickly stalemating each match 😂. His preferred activities include; hikes, catching grasshoppers, unsuccessful rabbit & squirrel chases, nice naps next to his foster brother, eating good meals, running to the ice maker when heard, having a dedicated spot on the sofa & bed, touring the kitchen on food-smelling strolls and always having an eye on his foster mom. We expect foster puppies to have accidents, & needing a crate but Paul has already graduated from both. He is potty trained & although he is crate trained, he does not necessarily need one. He and Trout have been left alone up to 3.5 hours with zero issues (He is not a chewer). You may be wondering if Paul has any vices. He truly is the easiest pup I have ever fostered. He’s great around people (kids included), and walks with a loose leash. Paul does enjoy meeting new dogs, but doesn’t like a lot of dog commotion (ie hyper active dogs), but as he continues to gain more confidence, I believe this will subside. If you know someone with a social dog who would love to add another pup who is an extreme outlier on the sweetness scale, let them know about Paul. Paul is neutered, microchipped, & up to date on shots. His adoption fee is $350 to help cover his vetting.

There is no puppy sweeter than Sally. This girl exudes love and affection and wants to be constantly cuddled! Or playing; playing is great too, according to Sally! She enjoys various toys, romping and exploring, and socializing with other dogs of all sizes. Having this girl around is endlessly entertaining! You won’t be able to stop yourself from smiling at her derpy tongue sticking out, her speckled belly, or her habit of building a toy mountain to play with and sleep in.    Sally gets along wonderfully with the cats in her foster home. That said, because of her size (25 lbs and quickly growing) and youthful exuberance, Sally is not an appropriate pup for a family with young children.    Sally is a gangly girl; right now she’s all awkward, adorably floppy, long limbs, not unlike a baby deer. She is quite active, and will probably be that way throughout her life. Though we can’t be sure, Sally looks to be a mix of Pyrenees and Australian Shepard, which would explain her loyal and intelligent personality as well as her larger size. These breeds require outlets for their energy and smarts, so consider that before adopting a dog with such heritage. However, Sally is highly trainable. Her potty habits are perfect when given ample yard time, and she sleeps through the night in her crate. She loves to please her people, so training possibilities are endless.    If you’re looking for a loving, active canine companion, beautiful Sally may just be your girl!    If you would like to adopt please apply at https://www.circle2rescue.com/dog-adoption-application/  The adoption fee of $350 includes the spay/neuter, vaccinations, deworming and microchip.   Please note, Circle 2 Rescue cannot guarantee the breed, composition or ages of our dogs as we usually have limited history prior to them entering the rescue.  ##2015146##

Dale is a 2.5MO Pyr weighing about 20lbs.  We are not sure if Dale and his siblings are purebred but we do know and dad were both Pyr (we just cannot confirm they were both purebreds) since nobody did a breed DNA test.  We are guessing Dale and his siblings will be about 70-90lbs when full grown (same size as their parents). Dale came to CO with his 5 siblings when their family had an "oops" litter and didn't know what to do with 6 growing puppies.  We required they get their two current dog fixed so this does not happen again, and took the pups so we could find them good, loving homes here in CO.  When the pups came in they were in pretty rough shape.  They had been living outside in mud, with barely any room to get around.  Once they had a good bath, consistent heatlhy food, a few vet checks, they started to feel and look amazing.  They are now happy, healthy, playful, and loving pups ready to find their forever families.  Since coming to CO they have all been well socialized with other dogs and humans are doing great, and are truly the sweetest. Dales foster says he is the more adventurous, playful, and exlporative pup.  He loves to play in the yard see what the world has to offer.   If you are interested in adopting Dale or one of his siblings, please fill out our adoption application at brighterdaysdogrescue.com ##2043230##

Brennan is a 2.5MO Pyr weighing about 20lbs.  We are not sure if Brennan and his siblings are purebred but we do know and dad were both Pyr (we just cannot confirm they were both purebreds) since nobody did a breed DNA test.  We are guessing Brennan and his siblings will be about 70-90lbs when full grown (same size as their parents). Brennan came to CO with his 5 siblings when their family had an "oops" litter and didn't know what to do with 6 growing puppies.  We required they get their two current dog fixed so this does not happen again, and took the pups so we could find them good, loving homes here in CO.  When the pups came in they were in pretty rough shape.  They had been living outside in mud, with barely any room to get around.  Once they had a good bath, consistent heatlhy food, a few vet checks, they started to feel and look amazing.  They are now happy, healthy, playful, and loving pups ready to find their forever families.  Since coming to CO they have all been well socialized with other dogs and humans are doing great, and are truly the sweetest. Brennan is a little more reserved and a Momma's boy.  He loves to snuggle and is probably hoping to be a giant lap dog.  He also absolutely LOVES playing with the other dogs and his siblings and romping around the yard, just like Dale.   If you are interested in adopting Brennan or one of his siblings, please fill out our adoption application at brighterdaysdogrescue.com ##2043244##
