Leonberger puppies and dogs in Bellingham, Washington

Dudley McFloof is 80 pounds of fluff, feelings, and complete confidence that his people are the greatest thing to ever happen to planet Earth. He looks like a polar bear, loves like a Labrador, and has just enough Great Pyrenees independence to pretend he cannot hear you when your plans do not align with his. Most days, you can find him wandering around like he owns the place, supervising everyone’s questionable decisions, or reversing that enormous fluffy booty directly into someone for scratches. Watch his video and fall in love with this lovable giant: https://youtu.be/8-ld2fyDwlE?si=ATbtqfhVGYGIFijd Dudley is approximately 3 years old and currently weighs around 80 pounds. We believe he may be a Great Pyrenees and Labrador mix, but with animal rescue, breed and age are always a mystery and our best guesses. Not only is he handsome as all get out but he’s so sweet and affectionate. To the point to where you can’t help but want to give him the biggest bear hug. He has spent time around children approximately 5 and 8 years old and did wonderfully with them. Dudley was gentle, tolerant, and genuinely happy to be included. He has wonderful potential to become an amazing family dog for a home with respectful children, especially if those children understand that fluffy booty scratches are now part of their household responsibilities. Dudley is dog friendly and currently fostered in a multi-dog home with dogs of all different sizes and personalities. He does best with dogs who understand his cool, calm, and collected approach to life. While the other dogs are running around making questionable choices, Dudley is usually nearby serving as unpaid security and making sure nobody gets too out of hand. He is perfectly comfortable around playful dogs, but he will give fair corrections if another dog becomes too pushy or a younger pup forgets how to act in public. Occasionally, the mood strikes and Dudley joins the fun, but he is not interested in turning every hour into recess. He would much rather explore, mind his own business, and check in periodically to collect the booty scratches he is owed. Dudley could happily live with another respectful, easygoing dog, but he will not be offended if his future family does not provide him with a full-time wrestling partner. Dudley also met our house cat Biggie and handled the introduction like a perfect gentleman. He did not chase Biggie and was completely unbothered by him jumping around and engaging in the usual mysterious cat activities. Biggie appeared comfortable around Dudley too. We do not know whether Dudley has ever lived with a cat, and this was our first time observing him around one. If you have a cat at home, a sleepover can be arranged upon request. Just let us know! Dudley is a smart guy, although he occasionally likes to pretend he has never heard a human word in his entire life. He knows how to sit, loves treats, and takes them very gently. From what we have seen, he also has great house manners and understands that the bathroom is located outside. He is intelligent, capable, and happy to cooperate whenever he determines your request is reasonable. Like many Great Pyrenees and their mixes, Dudley is not a fan of being contained. If his future family plans to crate him, he will need a sturdy crate built to safely accommodate a large, clever dog with several opinions. He would also do best in a house with a backyard rather than an apartment. Dudley enjoys having room to stretch his legs, investigate important smells, patrol his property, and occasionally use his talking voice without the neighbors calling an emergency community meeting. A tall, sturdy, and secure fence will be important because Dudley is curious, intelligent, and fully capable of pursuing his own agenda. You might assume a massive 80-pound dog could hop into a car without assistance. Dudley would like you to stop making assumptions. That particular feature was apparently not included in his operating system, so he currently needs someone to scoop him up and hoist all 80 pounds into the vehicle. Once loaded, he is a good car rider. It is simply getting him inside that doubles as leg day. Dudley also enjoys the water and would love a family that includes him in outdoor adventures, backyard hangouts, and everyday life. He is goofy, gentle, affectionate, and unbelievably devoted to his people. He may take up a little extra room in the house, but he will fill every bit of it with fluff, laughter, and love. If you are ready for one enormous best friend, one dedicated household supervisor, and a lifetime commitment to booty scratches, Dudley is ready to come home. We are willing to test Dudley McFloof with anything you need in order to ensure it's a perfect match. We can make anything happen! Just let us know.

Fostered in Marysville, WA and ready to meet you! Meet Jetson! 90 Pounds of Gentle Giant, Intelligence & Great Pyrenees Sass Approximately 2 years old | Great Pyrenees mix | 90 lbs Jetson is perfection. Okay, maybe I'm a little biased, but after spending quite a bit of time with this boy, I can confidently say he's one of my favorite dogs I've had the pleasure of coordinating. He's incredibly smart, gentle, observant, wonderfully tolerant, and has mastered the art of being completely unbothered by life. He's also 90 pounds of classic Great Pyrenees stubbornness, so don't let that sweet face fool you. https://youtu.be/kxmkY4a7Y1A First things first: Jetson LOVES his people. He is happiest when he's included in whatever you're doing. Coffee run? He's in. Trip to the pet store? Obviously. Walk in the woods? Absolutely. He would love a human who takes him along for everyday adventures and is home more often than not. He doesn't appreciate being left behind when his favorite person goes somewhere, and he will absolutely get a little huffy when he realizes he's not invited. You can practically hear him questioning your decision-making skills. He's fantastic in the car, happily loading himself up for adventures. Getting out is generally easy, unless he's decided the outing isn't over. Then you're negotiating with a 90-pound dog who has decided he lives in the car now. Welcome to Great Pyrenees ownership! One of Jetson's most impressive qualities is how beautifully he reads other dogs. He has excellent canine communication skills and an almost remarkable ability to understand when another dog needs space. He's incredibly tolerant, gives appropriate corrections when needed, and never takes things too far. He enjoys playing (maybe 20 minutes and he's good) but isn't looking for an all-day wrestling match. I've taken him to a busy dog park with 12–15 dogs running around, and he was completely unfazed. He spent his time casually patrolling and collecting attention from the humans. At one point, he noticed a particularly nervous dog who was overwhelmed by the chaos. Jetson quietly moved the other dogs away from her and then walked alongside her around the park. No drama, no fuss. He simply recognized that she needed a little help and made sure she was okay. I've also introduced him to my own reactive dog, who can admittedly be A LOT. Jetson calmly communicated that he wasn't a threat, gave her space, and once she settled, happily sat beside me and accepted attention with her right there. He's not just tolerant; he's thoughtful. He's an incredibly intelligent dog who pays attention to his surroundings and understands far more than he lets on. He doesn't need another dog in his home, but a similarly laid-back companion who enjoys occasionally patrolling the yard together before taking a three-hour nap would be a lovely bonus. He currently lives with cats and is pretty indifferent to them. Personally, I suspect he's secretly a little intimidated but would never admit it. He's wonderful with children, and I would ideally like to see him in a home with children 7 years and older. Jetson is gentle, but he appreciates a calmer environment and children who understand when he wants to relax and have his own space. The Great Pyrenees fine print Jetson has strong livestock guardian instincts. These are an important part of his personality and something his adopter MUST understand. He is NOT a trained livestock guardian dog and should never be adopted with the expectation that he will work as one. He's a companion dog who wants to be with his family. However, once he bonds with his people, his instincts become more apparent. For example, he may stand over children or other dogs and quietly survey the area, instinctively making sure his flock is safe. This is not aggression; it's his natural guardian behavior. He also takes yard security VERY seriously. He loves patrolling the fence line, checking his perimeter, and making sure no suspicious intruders have breached the property. Squirrels are particularly high-priority suspects. His adopter should ideally have experience with livestock guardian breeds, but someone willing to research, learn, and appreciate these instincts can also be a great fit. A few other things to know: -A fenced yard is required. Not a shared yard, not occasional trips to a dog park. He needs his own fully fenced outdoor space to roam and patrol. -No apartments, condos, or townhomes. Jetson is vocal, as many Pyrs are, and his impressive bark is not something your neighbors need to experience through a shared wall. -He loves food! Sometimes he gets a little lazy and decides bending down to eat is too much effort. He'll lie down, dump his food onto the floor, and eat it from there. Whatever works, buddy. -He's wonderful on leash. Unless he decides he'd rather go another direction, in which case you may find yourself in a battle of wills with a very large, very stubborn cloud. -He's crate trained, although he doesn't necessarily need one. -He enjoys water, but baths aren't exactly his favorite spa treatment. He's tolerant and lets you get the job done. -Grooming is a commitment. He needs brushing multiple times a week, and his adopter must be comfortable with dog glitter. Your clothes, furniture, floors, and probably your morning coffee will all contain a little Jetson. -Ideally lives within driving distance in the PNW. Like many Great Pyrenees, Jetson isn't a huge fan of change. He's settled into his current environment, and I don't want to put him through an unnecessarily long transport or another major transition if we can avoid it. Transport outside of the PNW may simply be a little too much for him, so I'd really love to find his forever family within driving distance. Jetson doesn't need a farm, livestock, or a job. He needs a person who understands his breed, wants a companion who will be included in everyday life, and appreciates all the wonderful things that come with a Great Pyrenees. He's a gentle giant with a big heart, a brilliant mind, and just enough stubbornness to keep life interesting. I really, really want to find this boy his person. Ready to make the first move?

I cannot say enough good things about Jetson. Everywhere I take him, people are amazed by how calm, gentle, and easygoing he is. He's been to adoption events, busy dog parks, and plenty of unfamiliar places, and he consistently handles himself beautifully. What makes him especially wonderful to me is his ability to read a situation. He notices things. He understands when another dog needs space, when someone is uncomfortable, and when he can simply relax and enjoy himself. He's smart, observant, and has such a lovely temperament.
