Greater Swiss Mountain Dog puppies and dogs in Provo, Utah

Okay, do you know that person who will enthusiastically say “YES!” to playing a game even though they have never played and do not know the rules? If Darby was a person, that would be her. She is sweet, spunky, and always ready for whatever and you know she is going to make it fun! The thing is, that doesn’t mean she is the one throwing the party- she will leave that to the confident queens, she just wants to be invited…basically, Darby is a loving, playful girl with a confident, but slightly shy side. Once she’s comfortable, her fun side comes out in full force. She loves a tennis ball! So far fetch isn’t really her thing, but carrying one around? Absolutely! Darby is estimated to be about 2 years old, she weighs 85 lbs, and given she is a rescue we cannot guarantee age or breed. Which leads to the topic of breed. Hmm…so how do I say this…we have no idea. Honestly she had us all scratching our heads so here are a few of the breeds our team sees in her either by looks or mannerisms. Mastiff, Rhodesian Ridgeback, black mouth cur, boerboel, black and tan coonhound…so let’s go with that. But if you get her DNA done please share the results with us! Darby is so fortunate and is being fostered in a loving family home complete with a set of parents, two young kids, two other dogs, and three cats. With kids age 1 and 5 his foster mom shared that he is awesome with the kids. Her foster shared that Darby licks the 1 year olds hands and wants to play and their 5 year old loves her. She did acknowledge that Darby is a big girl and has knocked over the 5 year old on accident and it is easy to see that Darby is still learning the size of her body in relation to other things. Because Darby loves the kids but truly just wants to play with them, we thing she would be happiest in a home with older children (10+) who want a dog they can play with. Her foster also shared that she has been around a other kids ages 5-10 and her behavior has been consistent across all of them, friendly and happy to be around them, and happiest if they want to play with her. In some ways she is just a big puppy and this really sounds like one of those ways. An ideal home for Darby would be one with a yard given her size and love of play. Which leads to Darby with dogs! This girl is definitely dog-friendly and is a regular at the local dog park where she always makes at least one new friend to play with. Having a playful dog in the home is going to be key to her happiness. When we introduced her to new dogs it was easy to see she is friendly and eager to make a connection, almost immediately inviting them to play. Not every dog she met was as eager to play, which is natural, but when she finally met a dog that took her up on the invite, it was amazing! She has a distinct play style and if you have a dog that can match her energy, you are likely very familiar with it. Simply, she plays hard, best described as rough and rowdy. The best pairing of another dog would be one that is similar size and energy level. A chill senior or a much smaller dog probably isn't the right match for her, but a fun-loving male dog, in a structured home? Perfect! Also, thanks to the fact that Darby is fostered, we can say with confidence that she is both house and crate trained. Darby lives with three cats currently and was introduced to our house cat. She is cat-tolerant, meeting polite caution but her playful side did show just enough that if she was in the home with a cat, a dog-savvy, confident cat would be the best fit. In other words, she needs a cat who won’t hesitate to give her a swat when needed — a timid kitty could easily be intimidated by her size. Darby’s a sweet, energetic girl who just wants someone to have fun with — and snuggle up with once the zoomies wear off. If you’re looking for a playful companion who’s got both heart and a whole lot of personality, Darby’s your girl! Questions?

Sweet, silly sidekick reporting for duty, its Mary Puppins! This girl is a happy-go-lucky, people-loving girl with just the right balance of playful energy and laid-back charm. Estimated to possibly be right around three years old, she weighs right around 50 lbs, and we can’t decide on what we see in her breed wise. Someone said little rottie, another said big beagle, we see black mouth cur… this is where we just acknowledge that rescue is our favorite breed and a Texas special is top-tier catch. If you know of a breed that is characterized by a wiggly butt, a light up smile and a big ol’ loving heart that’s what she is- 100%! Take a look at see what you think- https://youtu.be/Ej6XO1idkh0 Mary is fostered in a home with multiple dogs, including two Great Danes, an English bulldog, and two foster pit bulls. Mary has proven herself to be incredibly dog-social, playful, and adaptable. She meets new dogs with a happy submissive approach, think - tail wagging and friendly curiosity. She reads dogs well and will roll over on her back to show a dog that she is not a threat, which helps show her relaxed and ready to play vibe. As much as she enjoys playing with other dogs she is also happy doing her own thing whether that is wandering around the yard or playing with a toy. Seeing her connections with dogs she has met and the dogs in her foster home we can say her ideal dog-match would be a medium-energy male who can match her in play but respect her space when she needs it. Thanks to Mary’s dedicated foster we know that she is crate-trained, she currently sleeps in her crate at night and while her foster is away from the house. She is quiet ,both in and out of her crate, and will happily go to her crate when asked. Her foster mom shared that Mary has grown to expect her meals in her crate which is encouraged to fosters with multiple dogs including multiple fosters. We expect that she will carry that routine into her forever home. She is also house-trained and has not had an accident in the house. Once she arrives home she will need a tour of her potty places but comes with a solid base to work from. On top of that, she is great on leash and responsive to gentle correction. We were impressed watching her leash skills with a new handler, she walks at an easy pace, checks in often, and stays by your side. Mary does not live with kids in her foster home but has met kids during outings and when guests have come over and she has done well with them. She is joyful and enthusiastic when meeting new people and is still learning how to control that wiggly booty, so older kids who won’t easily be knocked over by her joy would be best. While she loves a good wrestling session, game of fetch, of a blast of zoomies Mary isn’t non-stop energy. She gets the wiggles out, then chills out. Because of that, she could thrive in either a house with a yard or an apartment, as long as she gets regular walks and chances to be social. Mary Puppins is a solid, easy-to-love, easy-to-live-with kind of dog. Great with people, respectful with other dogs, and full of personality—she’s the kind of pup who just needs a soft place to land and a human (or two) to share her big-hearted joy with. Expect love, full-body tail wags and excited greetings everyday with Mary! Questions?

Rowie Bowie is his name and delivering love and laughs is his game. If you are looking for a dog that feels like he has always been yours, you have found him! He has an old-mans soul and is just easy to have around. Take a few minutes to watch his video to see him in action then come back to read more- https://youtu.be/YhzQVC2iW2I Breed and birthday are details we cannot know/guarantee with a rescue dog and Rowie Bowie is no exception. Does he look a little like a Rottweiler? Yes! Is he as big as one? No way, this boy weighs 45 lbs. Off nothing but a visual, I’m going to say I think he is a shepherd/rottie mix, maybe 5-6 years old. That age is my favorite! Most dogs are more couch-potato than weekend warrior and Rowie is no exception. He is happy to just be. Napping on the couch, a little after dinner stroll or hanging with the kids, Rowie is up for it—as long as it’s low-key. He’s currently living in an apartment and doing great. He’s well-mannered indoors, is both house and crate trained, doesn’t bark and is relaxed when his foster is away during her work day. When it's time for potty breaks he is a gentleman, he waits to be leashed up and is just a breeze on leash, no pulling or rushing here. 
We introduced Rowie to a variety of dogs and he calm meeting new friends but is otherwise mostly aloof. He coexists without fuss and doesn’t seek out much interaction with other dogs. He could easily be a happy solo dog or the +1 to an equally chill dog. He shared toys without issue, even with several on the floor, and consistently kept a relaxed vibe. We are saying a feline-free home is best for Rowie. He was a bit too interested for us and it's easy to see he might chase a cat in the home. 
Rowie loves people and is incredibly friendly, including with kids! He was gentle and sweet meeting a 4 year old and minded his commands beautifully. What I loved most about his time with Kobe the 4 y/o was that Kobe was enjoying a slice of cheese pizza, walking around with it just in his hands and even though Rowie was right there, nose repeatedly so close, he didn’t once try to sneak a bite or even a sniff of his pizza. When he finally did share a bite with Rowie, he was so gentle taking it from his hand. That is impressive! This boy loves affection but is not overly clingy and definitely appreciates being part of the family. You’ll usually find him posted up on the couch, just watching the world go by, waiting for his next short stroll or belly rub. He is The ultimate "hang out and chill" companion. If you’re looking for a low-maintenance, loving pup with some hilarious fun guy energy, Rowie Bowie is ready to curl up next to you and assume the role of your best sidekick yet. Questions?
