Story
Meet Hayes
Hayes is a handsome young Great Pyrenees with a heart of gold who is looking for the right forever family. After he and his previous owner were unexpectedly displaced due to a personal crisis, Hayes found his way into our care. He was clearly loved, but his early environment wasn’t the ideal fit for a growing livestock guardian breed. Since joining us, he’s had the chance to settle in, decompress, and really let his personality shine, and we’ve loved watching him blossom. Like many Great Pyrenees, Hayes is thoughtful, observant, and naturally aware of his surroundings. When he first arrived, he was cautious around new people, but with time and consistency, he has become much more confident. These days, Hayes is happy to greet visitors after a proper introduction and no longer shows the same level of concern around strangers that he once did. While he still has the independent, discerning nature typical of his breed, he’s proven himself to be a truly sweet, gentle, and affectionate boy who loves spending time with his people.
Hayes absolutely enjoys the company of other dogs and would likely thrive with another mature, well-balanced dog who can help show him the ropes. As he’s matured, it’s become clear that Hayes has many wonderful qualities that make Great Pyrenees so special. He’s loyal, intelligent, and devoted, but he will do best with someone who appreciates guardian breeds and understands their unique personalities. He’ll benefit from continued structure, training, and an owner who enjoys working with an intelligent dog that likes to think for himself. We think Hayes would be happiest in a rural or semi-rural home with a securely fenced yard where he has room to stretch his legs and enjoy the outdoors. While he doesn’t need livestock to be happy, he’d likely appreciate a quieter lifestyle over a busy neighborhood. Hayes previously lived with young children and was reported to be uncomfortable around them, so we’re looking for an adult-only home or one with respectful teenagers (13+). His history with cats is unknown. Hayes is a wonderful young dog with so much to offer. He’s loyal, affectionate, goofy at times, and incredibly rewarding once you’ve earned his trust. For someone who understands and appreciates the Great Pyrenees breed, Hayes has all the makings of an exceptional lifelong companion. If you think Hayes might be the missing piece of your family, we’d love to hear from you! Be sure to submit an adoption application through our website.
Adoption fee includes: spay/neuter, microchip, microchip registration, dewormer, fecal testing, flea/tick prevention, and age-appropriate vaccinations.
Hayes would do great in a home with…
