Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.*** Check Out My Video Album Below! *** Tuff is a super sweetie with an extra thick, soft coat. You will LOVE running your fingers through his fur, and he will let you all day long! This little charmer loves to snuggle up next to his humans and give them kisses. He craves attention and is friendly to everyone he meets - there is no such things as a stranger to him! Tuff came into rescue with his five brothers, and all of them have young dog energy, enjoying an active lifestyle full of play and adventure. They are half Great Pyrenees, and 100% Good Boys! Tuff is almost fully leash trained, and rarely barks - just to alert his people to strangers or animals that have come onto the property. True to his Pyr nature, he is an independent thinker and curious. He knows “sit” and “down,” but sometimes takes a minute to perform, as he’s deciding if your reward is worth the effort (Tuff’s tip: bring out the peanut butter for best results when requesting a “sit”!). Tuff loves to play with toys, and adores goofing around with his brothers, so he sure hopes that his furever family includes a canine sibling for him to play with! He would love a 5.5’ fenced-in yard for running about and playing with his buddies. Tuff is seeking an active family with lots of love to give!

More Information: Questions? The fastest way to learn more about a dog is to fill out our Adoption Application. If you call or e-mail you are reducing your chances of adopting this animal as we direct our time and energy to first serving those who apply. NYS Registered Non-Profit Rescue # RR102. National Great Pyrenees Rescue (NGPR) has been rescuing and adopting out Great Pyrenees since 2006. Our relationship doesn’t end with adoption, as we continue to support adopters throughout the lifetime of their dog. Our goal is to assess every application on its own merits. Key considerations are: 1) the experience of the applicant with large breed dogs 2) children in the household or regularly visiting the household are ready for a large-breed dog who is a guardian by nature and 3) the sex of other dogs currently residing in the household to avoid same-sex aggression issues. For puppies under six months old, the applicant’s ability to socialize the puppy with older dogs is a priority. February 4, 2026, 2:31 pm
