Great Pyrenees puppies and dogs in Plymouth, Minnesota

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Thank you for stopping by to see me!  Please fill out an application to set up  a private meeting.    Nolan is a lovable golden retriever mix with a heart full of sweetness and a dash of uncertainty. While he sometimes believes he's the confident leader of the pack, he truly thrives under the guidance of a gentle and assertive human who can help him understand his place. Nolan enjoys slow introductions to other dogs, showing a preference for females and getting along well with both big and small pups once friendships are established. Though he’s had a few scuffles with male dogs, Nolan has a protective instinct that shines through when he senses his pack needs safeguarding. He'll step in to block any potential trouble, showcasing his natural guardian qualities. He can be quite the chatterbox, so a home without shared walls would be ideal for this talkative boy. Nolan absolutely loves his food, but he can be a bit possessive around other dogs during mealtime, so he eats in his kennel where he keeps everything tidy. He’s making great strides with potty training, but since he’s only experienced a boarding environment, he may need a little extra supervision as he transitions to a home setting. This sweet boy is looking for a kind, patient owner who understands his needs—preferably someone without cats and older, respectful children. Nolan doesn’t require a fenced yard, making him a great companion for someone ready to show him the love and leadership he craves. If you’re looking for a dog who is ready to bond and be a loyal friend, Nolan is waiting for you! Please note that some of our dogs are obtained from shelters, surrendered to our care, or released from breeders. Each animal's bio is based on our experience of the animal within our care, an educated guess based on physical characteristics, temperament and information shared. Each dog receives basic grooming when coming into rescue, but for some dogs they have not received grooming attention until recently and grooming may be required shortly after adoption. This will be at the adopter’s expense, so we encourage you to research the breed and be prepared for grooming expenses. Underdog cannot guarantee hypoallergenic or non-shedding qualities of any dogs in our rescue. Some of the animals come from situations where they are lacking experience in a home and confidence in humans. In turn, they require another companion dog and/or a fenced in yard in their forever home in order for them to feel safe. If you are interested in a particular dog whose bio states those needs and do not currently have them, please understand that your home might not be the right fit. Please use the filter on our Adoptable Dogs page to find the perfect match for your home.    ***Be sure to check your spam/junk folder as sometimes our emails end up there***Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.If you have other questions about me you can email Underdog Rescue at <inquiries@underdogrescuemn.com> ADOPTION EVENTS:      Adoption events are updated at the top of each dogs animals' as their foster home signs up. Check back for updates on which events they will be attending. If an event is not listed within their bio above, the animal is not planning to attend.  Please understand that all of our pets are in volunteer foster homes and sometimes "life" happens and the foster family cannot make it to their scheduled adoption event. If you are traveling from a far distance to meet a specific animal, please understand we cannot guarantee event attendance. We recommend filling out an application and we will set up a private appointment. Private appointments are only scheduled after an application is submitted and approved. ADOPTION PROCEDURE: The first step in our process is to complete an online adoption application on our website: http://www.underdogrescuemn.com/adoptionprocess/   Note: In most circumstances Underdog Rescue will only adopt within 60 miles of Minneapolis, MN.  All of our foster animals can be seen by appointment with an approved adoption application. Contact us at http://www.underdogrescuemn.com/contact-us/ if you have further questions. FOSTER CARE: All of our animals are fostered in individual homes or doggie daycare facilities. While they are in our care, they are part of our families and given lots of love. We work on training, crate-training and socialization prior to adoption, but each bio is written by the foster as they see them, in their home. Each animal's behavior is evaluated and we have a sense of its temperament and personality, but it cannot be guaranteed. We look for adopters who will give each animal the wonderful life and permanent home that he or she deserves in time and with patience.  If you have an interest and ability to be a foster home, please visit our website  www.underdogrescuemn.com/foster-applications  and fill out a foster application. NUTRITION: Nutrition is vital to the rehabilitation and life-long health of our pets.  All of our foster animals are fed a premium diet such as NutriSource, Canidae, Orijen, Nature's Variety, Fromm, Pure Vita, Stella and Chewy's, Primal, or balanced raw diet.  All adopters are required to continue providing premium diets for the life of the animal.

He will do well in a fenced property or farm. He is leash trained, muzzle trained, and crate trained, however, the door often remains open. He’s a quick learner. He’s a little over 4 years old and shy of 100 pounds. He knows no, wait, down, paw, gentle, bed, belly, “get it” to eat, and sit with many more things he’s still perfecting. Dwight does get long with other dogs but would perfer to be the only dog in his adoptive home.  He loves the butt scratches but when he is sleeping her prefers to be left alone. He can sometimes be a little protective of his chew bones or food. He doesn’t play fetch but he loves chasing a laser like a cat. He prefers humans to chase him as a way of playing. He came from a home with two adults and should not go to a home with children. He’s used to a more quiet space and doesn’t do very well with loud noises. He did a great job outside watching his previous owner in his work shop. He does a great job being an outside guard dog, that’s definitely the Great Pyrenees in him. He loves to work and play. He has a ton of energy.     Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.  or    When you adopt a pet from Midwest Animal Rescue and Services, your adoption fee covers: Microchip and registration, Core Vaccines including Rabies, Distemper and bordetella, age appropriate heartworm testing or FeLV-FIV testing, sterilization, heartworm/flea-tick prevention and deworming while in foster care.  Long Distance Adoptions: Animals who are not fully vaccinated and altered are not eligible for long distance adoption. We require a meet of the pet prior to adoption, which means coming to MARS.  We do not transport to potential adopters.

Meet Kit, a Great Pyrenees/Doberman mix born approx 9/29/22. She has made such strides in the last year. She is great outside & is almost always the first one to come in when called. She now has a perfect routine but will still need time to find a new routine, as she is very routine based. She knows where her kennel is and takes 3 laps around before going in to eat but prefers the couch or your bed for sleeping. She recently attended an adoption event & was very curious about all the people & especially children. Her nose is her guide & she will come up behind you on the couch and sniff your hair or neck. She has never snapped at people & is really friendly, just in her own slow way. This is a huge milestone because she was so skittish when arriving into rescue that she would run away anytime she was approached or called to come in. She loves getting pets & has been enjoying belly rubs. Kit loves other dogs but tends to be very dominant and a little snappy when meeting new dogs for the first time. She would be fine with a dog that is less dominant or with a patient alpha, who will gently show her who’s in charge. She would also be fine as an only dog. She absolutely loves puppies & is very gentle, so the perfect scenario may be that she is the first dog & another is added at some point. She cannot be around small animals, such as birds, cats, or chickens, as her prey drive is HIGH. She definitely needs a fenced yard because her absolute favorite thing to do is run! She is not a fence jumper, so any fence that is 4 feet or higher is great for her.  Her recall is improving & when she barks, she does respond to a firm, “leave it” or “no bark”. She does bark at neighbors or dogs next door, but she can be redirected. She will frolic & play for as long as she can. She loves long walks, soft toys & sleeping on the couch or in bed. She doesn’t need to be kenneled although when she is in new places, she may chew on things she is not supposed to, such as socks, pillows, and cushions. She has not done this in a very long time but it is a nervous response for her. She would love a home where she could have more one on one attention.  Due to her cautious nature, older, respectful kids would be best. She will take time and patience to adjust to a new environment but when she does the little things will reward you tenfold. She's been in rescue long enough and would love a home of her own!       Adoption fee includes: Full veterinary exam, alter, prepaid microchip, dewormed, Rabies vaccine, DAPP vaccine, Bordetella vaccine, 4DX , flea/tick and heartworm preventative while in rescue. Adoption fee: $525.00 Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.May 17, 2025, 12:19 am

Hi, I’m Riley, a 3 year old female Pyrenees weighing about 75 pounds. Have you ever heard of a gentle giant? Well, that’s me! I am a very sweet girl that   loves to cuddle, be around my people, and relax. I’ll gently nudge your hand when I want pets. I love meeting new people, especially kids, and I’d be the happiest pup alive if my new family had a kiddo. I’ve met dogs of all sizes (20-70 pounds) and do great with them all. I’m not super active but I’ll occasionally wrestle or play tug-of-war. On rare occasions, I’ll get a burst of energy and start chasing my tail. It always makes my foster parents laugh! I haven’t met any cats or critters in rescue but I’m willing to try! I did live on a farm so it’s possible I’ve been exposed to all sorts of animals in the past. I am completely potty trained! I’m not a fan of the kennel but I’m doing better every day. Once I’m settled in my new home, I could be left out of the kennel during the day. My leash skills could use some work - I’m just a very strong girl so I will pull. True to my breed, I take my guard dog duties very seriously and I’ll let out some big barks when I hear noises outside. My foster mom thinks I’m a valuable member of the neighborhood watch! I also do well in the car. I finished heartworm treatment in May so I’ll need to be low activity until October. Honestly, that’s just fine with me because I’d rather be snoozing. I’m the best dog that would do well in most households. You’ll love me!      Adoption fee includes: Full veterinary exam, Alter, Prepaid microchip, Dewormed, Rabies vaccine (if age appropriate), Distemper combo vaccine(s) appropriate to age, Bordetella vaccine, 4DX (over 6 months of age), Flea/tick and heartworm preventative while in rescue. Adoption fee:  $525.00    Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.May 12, 2025, 9:16 am

Moose is a gorgeous young PyrPoo that will be 2 on 11/25). Smart, playful, & curious with a Pyrenees stubborn streak. He’s loyal to his family & loves everyone he’s ever met! Moose has been through 2 weeks of board & train. With consistency I am convinced he will be a rock star dog! He also has an incredibly gentle demeanor. Moose has 2 flaws - barking & jumping. (No shared walls.) Both of these things are avoidable with consistency in response & training. He’s smart though & if he knows you’ll waiver he will test what he can get by with. Moose has no known health problems, is healthy & does not have any dietary restrictions. He does on being left out while you’re gone or I can put him until the bathroom with a dog bed & bone & he will be fine. With him being a longer hair dog he will require regular grooming. He loves having doggie playmates if any size. People of all sizes are his jam! Cats some are too tempting to chase so no cats. Just a good boy looking for a new family!

Coral is a stunning 11-month-old, 71-pound Great Pyrenees mix. Found abandoned in a field, you’d never guess it from her loving and easygoing nature. She’s mellow, devoted, and has all the best traits of a wonderful family dog.Despite being a large puppy, Coral already has impressive manners. She’s fully potty trained, doesn’t counter surf, and is content to lay around with her people—when she’s not showing off her playful zoomies, that is! She LOVES to chew on her toys and would thrive in a home that offers both physical activity and intellectual enrichment.Coral is gentle and affectionate, though she can be a bit skittish around new people, especially men. With patience and quality time, she forms deep bonds and becomes a loyal companion. She does great on a leash and enjoys walks, but would benefit from continued training on basic commands, as those are still new to her.She gets along wonderfully with other dogs and has adjusted well to her foster’s cat—though future cat relationships will depend on the cat’s temperament and the situation. Coral does shed lightly, but her calm demeanor and cuddly personality more than make up for it.If you’re looking for a sweet, mellow pup who’s equal parts playful and affectionate, Coral might just be your perfect match.IMPORTANT: Please read all below, especially if you live outside of Texas, which is where our rescue is located.Apply to adopt on our website: https://www.charmingpetrescue.org/adoptAll of our animals are spayed/neutered, microchipped, and up to date on shots.ALL of our animals are located in Boerne, TX, but transport after adoption is available to other states for a $300 fee for dogs or an additional fee varying by location for cats. If you are seeing our pets posted in your state, that's because you live near a transport stop, they are not currently at that location. Petfinder lists our pets as 'Out of Town' pets at other locations, and Adopt-a-Pet lists our location as a Transport stop. Those are currently the only options they offer to make this clear, so we put this description we've put at the bottom to explain it. You can read more about transport here: www.charmingpetrescue.org/transportWe understand transport is not an option for everyone, but we offer it at the cost we pay the transport company for those who wish to adopt from us.July 14, 2025, 9:29 pm
