Great Pyrenees puppies and dogs in Canby, Oregon

We saw that Haystack had been sitting in a California shelter since September 2024 and were stunned. Despite his long stint in a crowded, loud shelter, Haystack was a staff favorite and managed to not go kennel crazy. He is an easy going guy even with the stress of the shelter and we knew in our hearts that we wanted to be his positive outcome. After just one week in his Portland, Oregon foster home, this is what Haystack's foster mom has to report: "Haystack is really coming out of his shell and showing more of his personality. He is a sweet guy and getting more playful. He does well in the crate. He is a counter surfer so we are working on that. Very food motivated." - Approximately 80 pounds and likely around 6 years old - Possibly a Great Pyrenees mix. He has the double rear dew claws that the breed often has. Haystack also has some of the qualities of a livestock guardian dog: somewhat wary of strangers at first, can be protective of his person, will bark to alert that something is going on outside, slightly independent but also comes to you for affection and interaction at times. Haystack would do best in suburban or country setting as all the stimulus of a high traffic city life can put him on alert. He would love to be a guardian on someone's property. - Medium to lower energy level. Haystack is pretty happy to lounge around the house and nap with a daily walk. - Good on leash and doesn't pull much. He is not reactive to other dogs on leash and really enjoys his walks. - Fostered with kids ages 13 and 15 and does well with them. He warmed up to the kids in his foster home quickly. We do not know how he would do around younger kiddos. - Good with other dogs. He's happy to interact and hang out with other dogs. We have not seen him with small dogs yet. He has a second dog that visits his foster dog and he does well sharing the home with another dog. - No cats. Unfortunately he does have a prey drive towards cats. - Have not seem him around livestock or poultry. - Crate trained - Potty trained - Rides well in the car and loads up all on his own. Haystack is neutered, vaccinated, heartworm tested negative, dewormed, microchipped and current on fleat/tick/heartworm prevention. His adoption fee includes a free wellness exam to one of our partner veterinary clinics in Portland, Milwaukie, Oregon City or Tualatin. $150 adoption fee Fostered in Portland, Oregon APPLY TO ADOPT HAYSTACK ON OUR WEBSITE: WWW.AGAVEDOGS.ORG

Ari is a 2.5 year old great pyrenees. He is very friendly and loves meeting new people but can jump up on them or being overexcited. He is reactive with other dogs on walks (mainly wants to play) and needs some good leash training. He is fully potty trained and will let you know when he needs to go out. He is neutered. He loves to play with other dogs but has not lived with them before. He has some resource guarding tendencies with food water and bones. He sleeps in a crate at night. He would be best in a family with older kids or no kids. We have a young child and he has knocked him over (unaware of his large size) and growled when he was near his food. He is a very loving dog though and has shown no aggression outside resource guarding. He will come with a bed, crate, food dishes, and enough food for two months.

Apollo is great with dogs & loves people. He's a typical pyr who likes to play but is just as content being a couch potato. Apollo requires a tall, secure wood fence. He sails over a 4 ft fence & climbs anything taller if its a wire fence. He's very intent on seeing what's on the other side or visiting the other side :) You can't blame him, he is named after the Greek God for healing or all the spaceships we have sent into space??? I like adventure :) just take me with you when you go!! Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $450 (includes transport to your area)

Has anyone seen a white bumble bee??? Us either!! Yet, here we are..... We are quite the pair, cute and big and lumbering around the rescue ;) We r not a bonded pair, but you could get quite alot of fun and hair with two of us... well even if you only adopt one of us. We are happy dogs, each of us have a sweet, cuddly kind of energy and we r ready for your couch. So if you are looking for a big fluffy friend, adopt one of us soon!! Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $450 (includes transport to your area)
