Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. 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.

Story
Francis acts like a true Pyrenees, she is sweet, docile and cuddly! She is doing well in her crate and getting close to being potty trained. She loves to chew on a good stick, and lounge with her people. Francis has an undiagnosed medical mystery. She arrived with a slight limp and has progressed to losing most function of hind legs. We have ruled out bone issue, and are waiting to see a neurologist. If you are still interested in adopting after her diagnosis, please message! If you can help towards her care or follow her story; please visit https://gofund.me/5fdad483
