Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. My name is Daffodil but my foster family calls me “DILLY.” I'm a Great Pyrenees mix and my approximate date of birth is 09/22/2022. While I'm excited to meet you now, I am scheduled to be spayed on April 29th and pending how I heal, will be ready to come join your home shortly thereafter! I’m a big gal. If you’re a lover of big dogs, I’m definitely the one for you. I have all the benefits a large dog can offer: Protection, cuddles, soft fur, a beautiful profile, lap warming abilities. All of it. I’m definitely a Great Pyrenees mix because I love to protect my home and do security checks around the property. When my foster human kiddos play outside, I will gladly babysit them and hang out with them until the end of time. I even have chickens in my foster home and I do a good job of protecting them too. Squirrels beware though, I’m on duty and I will chase you! In my foster home I live with 4 cats, a lot of chickens, 2 adult humans and 3 kiddo humans including 1 baby. I love all of them and do great with everyone! Cats, I definitely can live with, but I also like to chase them so sometimes they don’t like that. Because I’m so big, I do accidentally knock the baby over once in a while. Oops. I can’t help it and I don’t mean to do it! I am potty trained and kennel trained. I sleep in my kennel perfectly at night and don’t make a peep. If I need to go potty, I either use my doggy doorbell or I sit by the door to get your attention. I am probably the best dog to walk, like ever. My mom says I don’t pull a whole lot, I pay attention to her signals and I greet people nicely. I’m still skittish and scare easily, so sometimes I get frightened by loud noises, but that’s about it. I had a rough start before coming to rescue. I was found pretty skinny, weighing in at 48 lbs when I should be between 80-100lbs. For this reason, I LOVE food. If you need to teach me a trick, food works great. I’m so smart it only took me 4 days to learn both sit and shake paw. Imagine what else I could learn! I absolutely LOVE the sun and laying in the grass, where after releasing my "zoomies", I drop down on the ground, close my eyes, and take in all the smells and warmth. I can't wait to experience my first summer! When I'm inside, I love to fall asleep on the couch (taking up the entire thing) or lay on your lap. I love my squeaky toys and kong full of treats. Anything to keep me busy is awesome, because I’m smart. Smart dogs need to have jobs or be kept busy. Some input about me, and where my best fit would be: - A busy house would be a great fit for me! - I seem to do great free roaming when the humans are gone, but I can also kennel if needed. I do the kennel at bedtime. - I would do best in a home without cats. - I LOVE kids. They are so lickable. - I do great with other dogs, BUT they do still scare me, so I can be really shy when meeting them. After I get to know them though, it’s PLAY TIME! - I need an owner that understands that smart dogs need jobs. Couch potatoes need not apply, I need interaction and stuff to do. - I went to a Brewery with my fosters and did so good in Public. If you want a dog for outings, I would be a good fit. - Outdoor adventures are a must. - I’m a Great Pyrenees, so although I’m super smart, I can be stubborn and listen when I feel like it. If you know anything about Great Pyrenees, you’ll know this is exactly how we all are! - I'm a fantastic walker and will definitely need lots of walks to exercise my giant legs. I don't pull all that much, unless the kids are way ahead of me and I want to catch up to them, otherwise, taking in those smells is something I look forward to everyday. - I’m loyal beyond words. If you pick me, I’m in this for life. I’m yours. I hope to get a chance to meet you soon so that we can start our life together while I'm still a young and a growing girl!
