Great Pyrenees puppies and dogs in Ashland, Virginia

  Jumping Jack Junior is a dog with a huge smile and the most handsome good looks ever.   He is a Golden/Great Pyr mix that is only one year old and weighs 61 pounds.  We are guessing his breed but he seems more Golden in size and then more Great Pyr in appearance.  This boy is joyous and couldn't be more of a free spirit and  with an inviting personality to come and play with him and let him love your family.  Junior found himself in a Texas shelter because his owner was evicted from her home.  The two small 15 pound dogs living there with Junior, also lost their home and are in the shelter.  Junior has been a great big brother to these small dogs and he is most certainly now willing and able to be a friend to other small dogs and animals if needed.  He has no aggression in his soul and he is NOT reactive to any new encounters with other dogs when on a leash.  He is passive and fun loving and adores meeting new people to become his friend.  He is leash trained and housebroken and just one of those gorgeous A+++ dogs that you really need to consider taking home if you like the bigger than life luxurious dogs.  He is a Jumping Jack Prince of a dog.... Junior promises to be one of your best decision when adopting a dog to be by your side for the next 15 years.  If you are interested please don't hesitate and contact Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrtennessee@gmail.com   We can adopt him to Tennessee residents and also can transport him to northeastern families.  Just mention when you live when inquiring and asking for an application.    PLEASE NOTE:  Our dogs are transported from Tennessee to meeting places in the states where we have posted.  Further information about us is given on our Adopt-A-Pet site.  The adoption fees vary and will be provided as well as noted on the application you receive.  Contact us at 615-661-5333 or ccrnewengland@gmail.comMay 19, 2025, 1:16 pm

Approximate Age: 8 years old Approximate Weight: 56lbs Fancy Pants Francis; This 7ish-year-old boy is known for his overall chill demeanor, but don't be surprised if you catch him doing tornado spins while joyfully tossing his toys in the air because even a refined man such as himself needs to have some fun from time to time. Francis is very friendly with other dogs (and cats!) Francis is currently in search of a nice and quiet home where he can feel comfortable. He is the perfect combination of independence and affection, often finding his way onto your lap for a few minutes of snuggles. It's important to be aware that Francis exhibits protective tendencies. He has bitten people when they have entered his space, so it’s best for him to be crated when guests visit. Outside the home, he is friendly with strangers. Francis thinks he's a canine traffic cop. Cars and bikes that whiz by are a potential menace to his neighborhood. A stern 'Leave it, Francis!' usually brings him back to reality (and his doggy bed). If you are a patient and understanding adopter, Fancy Pants Francis would be thrilled to become a part of your family. He promises to bring joy, snuggles, and plenty of memorable moments to your life.

Adeline is a two year old Great Pyrenees mix with double rear dew claws, a soft presence, and a calm, loyal nature. At about sixty pounds, she is a compact girl for her breed mix, and she carries herself with a gentle confidence that makes her easy to love. She is tidy, appears fully house trained, and keeps her space neat. She enjoys following her people from room to room and settles beautifully once she knows the routine. Adeline is affectionate, easygoing, and eager to please. She loves cuddling on the furniture with her trusted humans, riding in the car, strolling on a loose lead, and keeping an eye on household happenings. She will be the first to alert you when a delivery truck pulls into the driveway, and she takes her job as neighborhood watch very seriously. Once the intruders retreat, she settles quickly. She does well in her crate and will settle after a short period of protest, but she much prefers the freedom to sleep near her people. She knows several cues, including sit, down, and name recognition, and is working on off. Counter surfing is a temptation, but she responds immediately to redirection and is very receptive to guidance. She is smart, observant, and wonderfully food motivated. Adeline has been kind and patient with children, especially six year olds in her foster home. She does well with male dogs and small dogs, and she has learned to coexist with a large female dog through slow introductions. She has not been exposed to cats. As a nursing mother, her interactions with other dogs have been limited, but she has shown lovely potential for polite canine friendships. She rides beautifully in the car, walks calmly unless wildlife or significant stimuli appear, and even likes to carry her leash around the house as a prized belonging.Adeline is a gentle, affectionate companion who wants nothing more than a soft place to rest her head and a family to adore. Once her puppies are fully independent, she will be ready for her spay and for the next chapter of her life. She will make a loyal, loving addition to a home that appreciates her sweet nature, steady spirit, and watchful heart. At Green Dogs Unleashed (GDU), we are dedicated to ensuring the successful placement of our dogs in loving, permanent homes. Over the years, we have seen an increasing number of returns due to behavioral issues that could have been prevented with the right support. A significant percentage of these returns involve out-of-area clients or those who have not completed training with GDU. To address this, positive reinforcement training with Green Dogs Unleashed is required as a condition for all adoptions. Preference for this dog will be given to adopters who commit to signing up for and completing our six-week Canine 101 training class in person at our headquarters in Troy, VA. Secondary consideration will be given to a limited number of out-of-area adopters who agree to complete one private lesson with GDU, either in person or virtually, and attend a pre-approved positive reinforcement training class in their area. At the time you are seeing this post, this dog is still available for adoption. But please know that we may be working on multiple applications already, and any one of them could be approved at any time. Please READ THIS ENTIRE DESCRIPTION and complete an adoption application, if you are interested in any of our animals. Application at www.greendogsunleashed.org If you send an inquiry to ask if the dog is still available, or just tell us you are interested, your inquiry will not be answered. FILL OUT AN APPLICATION. We can do NOTHING without that. No, we cannot tell you if he would be a match for your family without seeing an application. PLEASE KEEP READING for info. */*/* PLEASE NOTE: The first communication you will receive after completing an application will be an email response, which will have instructions on how to proceed. Please check your inbox AND spam folders for the next 48 hours, for this email. We will not begin processing an application without the information requested in that email. */*/* We are happy to consider applicants from out of state on most dogs. Please read the description to see if this dog is an exception. If the applicant is approved to adopt, they MUST be willing to come to our location in Troy, VA, for a meet and greet. If all parties agree that the pup and family are a good fit, they would take the pup home at that time. For more information about our mission and for an APPLICATION for adoption, please go to www.greendogsunleashed.com. GDU does ask a minimum adoption fee of $400.00. This does not even come close to covering all expenses created by animals while in rescue. We are funded solely by the angels and volunteers willing to donate time and finances. This minimum fee includes DAPP, rabies if age appropriate,, heartworm test and preventative, if age appropriate, and flea and tick treatment, as well as neutering or spaying, if the animal is medically sound to undergo surgery. In an attempt to avoid tummy upset from a sudden change of food, the foster family may include a small, transitional bag of the food the dog/puppy has been eating. And if the dog/puppy has grown attached to a special item (like a toy or blanket), they may send that along, as well. */*/* Young puppies will receive age-appropriate vaccines, and will be spayed/neutered prior to adoption. Adopters may be required to provide additional puppy boosters and at 16 weeks of age, a rabies vaccine. Future annual vaccines, testing and monthly heartworm preventative are REQUIRED, and will be the financial responsibility of the adopter. *****Due to the sheer number of animals and applications in our program, coupled with a limited number of volunteers, applicants MUST have patience as we process applications.   If you do not hear back from us, the animal may have been adopted.   We strive to let people know but sadly cannot offer reasons for denial beyond that.  Any harassment of our volunteers will go unanswered and we will simply block you.   Our volunteers spend their time working hard to ensure the very best for each animal.   Please remember the animal, not the applicant, is our client.*****  ##2567936##

Fill out an Adoption Application Keep Calm and rub my belly is Bunny's motto!   Bunny is a 4-5 year old Great Pyrenees from Asheville NC. She is a Jetsetter, shedder, and best momma ever. She will throw herself in front of you for belly rubs and you will laugh out loud.  It is impossible to look at Bunny and be sad or mad. Her beautiful soulful eyes will melt your heart and command you to rub her belly and be happy! She is sweet and loves the indoors unlike her ancestors. Storms are not Bunny's favorite as she has seen some scary ones.    Bunny is a favorite at the vet’s office, her foster mom’s office and even the groomer! She is loved anywhere she goes. Bunny is sweeter than cotton candy and ready to live her DIVA life after motherhood.    Raising 10 fabulous babies was fun but, Bunny is ready to move on and be your sweet companion. Bunny's bark is even sweet sounding. She does enjoy letting everyone around her know she is on the job! Bunny can be left alone with out getting into any trouble and has never had any accidents in the house.    Bunny does really well with meeting other dogs! At her fosterer's office and the pet store,  etc., she is kind of a diva and is un-interested after the initial meeting. She would love to PLAY once she had the opportunity and intros to an area she is not “in charge of” (like her half of the foster home).   Click here to watch a video of Bunny.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.
