Akbash puppies and dogs in Provo, Utah

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.We see so many dogs being given away for free on FB, Toby was one of them. Fortunately for him we were able to find a foster to take him. He was scheduled to be neutered just 2 days after getting to his foster home but once there it was found that he was too sick to have any kind of surgery. Toby was full of worms and parasites! Poor guy.  He's spent the last couple of weeks on meds getting healthy, will be getting his shots and once healthy enough will be neutered and ready for his forever home.  This stunning blue eyed boy is a love! Great with other dogs and adores all people. Just no chickens for this floof! ;) His foster mom has been working with him on his walks, up until now he hasn't had much experience with that. He's also afraid of loud noises. That includes loud kiddos, squeaker toys, and other loud barking dogs. He's adjusting well to his foster home though and could be he just needs a few weeks to settle in. We'll know more soon so check back!Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 12, 2024, 4:10 pm

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Albi was almost euthanized for just doing his job, being a protector. This boy needs a home where his dedication will be appreciated, he takes his job seriously!  Albi enjoys his time on the couch but is also a great patroller! He's very protective of his space and you will be incredibly safe with this boy on duty! He loves his walks and is learning not to pull so much. He could potentially live with cats but needs very slow intros and will chase those that run. He is good with other dogs with proper intros. He needs to live far from a road, he doesn't like cars and will chase, his foster mom is working with him on that. Albi has been in his foster home for over a year now and his foster mom knows him very well. He has bonded very closely with our girl Savannah and we are looking for an adopter who will take the 2 of them together.  Albi has been working on his food aggression for some time and has made improvements but it's still best to feed separately. This boy is a true guardian, he wants to protect his people and his property. He and Savannah are a great pair and will be a great addition for just the right home!Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.May 8, 2025, 2:00 pm

She lives in a foster home with 2 other dogs and a cat and does great! Aspen loves her outside time, especially in the cooler weather. She loves to sit outside and soak up the sun! She makes great use of the doggy door! She also loves the comforts of home, a nice nap on the couch is a great afternoon past time.  This beautiful girl would be a great floof to add to any family!

They are an old married couple and they must be adopted together. We will be extremely selective about where these 2 go, with all that they've been through.  After their owner suddenly passed away they were faced with euthanasia. We had just a couple of days to find a place to get them safe, and thank goodness a wonderful foster stepped up! Zack gets along with all dogs and cats and is just a happy go lucky boy wherever he goes.  He is being fostered with Lucy in MT.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.February 20, 2025, 3:39 pm

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Sokka came to our rescue when he was taken to the shelter after being found left in an apartment alone for 10 days. In spite of that he was incredibly sweet, loved everyone he met and was happy to play with some doggy friends in his foster home. When his foster family had additional family with their own dogs moving into their home, it was time for Sokka to find a new foster home. His new foster mom quickly fell for him and there was talk of foster failing. Things changed for Sokka, who had been renamed Owen, when he protected his mom from a dog attack, he took his job seriously and kept her safe but by doing so it affected him, mentally, and he hasn't been the same boy since. Owen's foster mom now feels he'd do better in a different home so we are now looking for a very special place for him. The boy who used to love doggy friends now seems to be very scared and unsure. The boy who never met a person he didn't instantly love, is now very cautious and fearful. So we are looking for a quiet, low key home for Owen where he can learn to trust, feel safe again. Have a backyard to soak up the sun, or the snow. Also a very committed foster or adopter who will work consistently with our behaviorist to help Owen through the trauma he experienced. This is no small ask we know. But he deserves nothing less! Sokka/Owen is currently in UtahVisit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.June 2, 2025, 3:10 pm

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.What happens when a shelter has a policy that says, if you've been at the shelter for 90 days you're time is up?? For Savannah it meant she was going to be euthanized. She had been labeled dog aggressive by the shelter and our pleas for an "only dog" home were not finding the right person to help her. An 11th hour eval showed a different girl than what we'd been told, not dog aggressive at all. Once pulled from the shelter and waiting for transport we were even happier to see an absolutely wonderful girl who loves other dogs, and cats! Savannah is about 2 years old, spayed and UTD on shots.  She loves people more than anything, she wants all the affection she can get! Savannah is good with other dogs, and cats. She is great on a leash and good in the car. Since being in her foster home in MT, she and GPRM's Albi have become very much attached and if at all possible, both rescues would love to see them adopted together. Both dogs are great at patrolling, not really experienced LGD's but are great at keeping anything off the property that you don't want there!Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.December 17, 2024, 12:56 pm

Meet Snow White! She is a dog shaped fluffy cloud who has the BIGGEST heart for her humans! If you are looking for a guardian angel who’s love language is cuddling and kisses, you’ve found the best girl for the job! We believe Snow White is a Great Pyrenese mix who is about 2 years old and weighs approximately 64 pounds! Her fluff may account for half of her weight which makes her the perfect snuggle bug candidate LOL! Due to her being a rescue, age and breed cannot be guaranteed. But the sweetness of her face is all that really matters in the end! Watch Snow White love on all the kiddos here: https://youtu.be/NYuTXWPkQ6Y I met Snow White on a rainy, stormy day in South Texas. The weather was dreary but Snow White’s spirit was not! She so gracefully welcomed me into her presence with gentle tail wags and soft kisses. Her foster’s favorite thing about her is how sweet and kind she is with all living creatures big and small. True to the Great Pyrenees nature, she’s a guardian and cares for the wellbeing of those around her. When she met Biggie, our housecat, she was unbothered. Inspecting him with a quick sniff and letting him go on his way. She would be fine in a home with dog savvy kitties who don’t mind a giant ball of fluff leisurely perusing their space. With dogs, she’s equally as great! She lives with 5 other dogs at her foster’s home of various ages, sizes, and breeds. Her foster states that she loves to play around with them at home! It’s so nice that she wants everyone around her to feel safe and comfortable with her. When she met some of the pups at our residence, she was very mellow and peaceful. She allowed them to inspect her as she inspected them and proceeded to go investigate the new smells of the yard. She would do great in a home with medium energy pups who are happily open to adding a new pal to the pack. When it comes to people, especially kids, Snow White loves them! She gets so excited when a kiddo enters her presence! Her foster stated that she loves when his grandkids aged 4 and 2 come to visit. When she met Blaze and Xen (9) all she wanted to do was be in their space. She sat there patiently as they gave her head rubs and she gave them kisses in return. Snow White is very kid friendly and would do well in a home that has children excitedly awaiting to share their love. Due to Snow White’s size and her love of perusing the yard, it would be best if she went to a home that had space for her to roam in the back yard over an apartment. Honestly, Snow White is such a great catch! She has a mellow demeanor that can also get playful when invited. She has a gentle, cuddly, loving nature that her humans will adore. She loves taking leisurely walks with her humans. And she is super soft and fluffy and cute! What more could you want in a pet?! If Snow White is the princess you’ve been longing for, apply for her today! https://adopt.animalsfirst.com/animal/62cc8e128b02916730334440/67f6dd7f39c5f0fae903b604 Questions?

Let me introduce you to a warm, gentle soul we call Barley. He has eyes that quietly say “tell me all about it, I’m here to listen.” And his presence is just as comforting. He can come off a touch shy when you first meet him, some of that is because he isn’t clamoring for your attention, but the truth is he is taking slow and observing. I felt like I immediately understood his energy and met him there, sitting on the ground with him and while I sweet talked him he slowly melted into leaning on on me in a way that felt like a gentle hug. He is a quiet presence like a long-time best friend and has all the traits of an adoring, loyal dog. Lucky for you he is available for adoption and ready to come home. Take a look then come back to read more- It’s no surprise, my favorite thing about Barley is how easy his company is. Slow and steady in every area, whether it is with people, on-leash for a walk, with dogs, or meeting our house cat. His demeanor and look lead us to believe he is an Anotolian shepherd mix, approximately 1.5 years old and he currently weighs 51 lbs, Breed and age are details we cannot offer 100% certainty on given the nature of him being a rescue . He may grow a smidge more but we believe he is essentially his full grown size- perfectly midsize in our opinion. Initially, we thought Barley may not be interested in other dogs because of his shy approach but we were quickly shown otherwise. As we introduced him to female on-leash, it was easy to see that he felt very comfortable with her. His tail was wagging and his body was soft and welcoming. With each additional dog he continued to show us a polite approach and an easy-going nature, no matter the size or gender of the dogs. He did really gravitate towards a larger male in a very loving way, almost like the protector energy of this dog was familiar. Although we have not seen a bouncy, playful side, we anticipate as he settles in and builds connections with dogs, we will see that side of him emerge. In addition to being dog friendly, Barley was respectful with our resident house cat. His approach was cautious and almost avoidant but before long the cat was laying nearby and he moved on in a way that showed he was not fixated or concerned with the cat. From what we saw Barley would make a peaceful addition to a home with feline friends. Barley would easily live in a home with a yard to stretch those legs, feel the sun and enjoy the breeze but he has potential for apartment life. With a quiet presence and a wonderful mid-size frame, with growing leash skills, apartments are a possibility but because of his current shyness he may need some sweet talk and treats to build confidence in busy areas.But given his age and approach to new experiences we have confidence that with time and understanding, Barley will transition smoothly into a variety of homes. A house with a yard is always wonderful but above all Barley is looking for a loving home, regular walks, a easy-going doggie companion or two, maybe even a feline friend… he is ready to quietly take on discovering the world with you by his side. If you can guard that gentle, sweet heart, he promises to help calm you from whatever the day could throw at you, fill you up with love, sweetness and loyalty in return. Looks, charm, and a golden-good heart, that’s Barley and he is ready and available to be your dream boy! Questions?

Loving, obedient, smart, curious, and adventure-ready? That’s Darla! A wonder dog through and through, this girl is great with other dogs, highly trainable, treat motivated, and is a cutie in a unique coat. One of my favorite things about Darla is how well balanced her energy is, if she gets excited, she is back to calm in just a moment, if she is a bit nervous- she gets curious, checks it out and just like that she is confident. Take a look at her in action then come back to read more- https://youtu.be/mCwsTJdbJdY Darla is so fortunate to be in a loving foster home while she waits for her forever family. This allows her to learn and practice all the best manners and skills a house dog needs. This also gives us a true front row seat to her personality. Her foster family has nothing but praise for her. From how easily she fit right in to her quick learning of everything. From house training to manners around meals, she is attentive to directions and consistently quick to master new skills. Thanks to that she is both house and crate trained! Her foster family shared that she has never had an accident in the house and sleeps through the night quietly in her crate. She often chooses the crate to sleep at night but on occasion she chooses a cozy dog bed. On those nights she has been perfect, sleeping peacefully through the night. Darla is estimated to be just over a year old, she weighs 53 lbs, and is likely a Pyrenees/Husky/Shepherd mix but we cannot guarantee age of breed given she is a rescue. Also, I strongly suspect she may be a dog/deer mix- she you see the speckles and spots that run down her back you will see why this is my suspicion. However and whatever she is, she has a gorgeous and unique coat. When she was introduced to other dogs she showed us a calm, friendly approach. We do know she has a playful side, she lives with another dog in her foster home and the two of them have a blast together. Unfortunately, on the day we were spending time with Darla the weather was rainy pretty much all day, which didn’t bring out the playful side in anyone. Despite that, no matter the energy of the other dog or where they met, she was calm and respectful in her approach and all together easy-going in their company. Darla would love a playmate, and enjoys having a companion to navigate the world alongside but given how quickly her confidence grows she is suited for only-dog life as well. A few toys, adventures with you, and walks around the block to greet the neighbors would be plenty to keep her happy and fulfilled! Darla’s ideal home would be one where hikes and walks are a regular occurence. A house with a yard would be best given her love of bouncing around outside and her occasional awooowooo’s. Her foster family shared that they would guess she has some Husky in her because she loves to “sing.” It is pretty cute and a expression she doesn’t use excessively. With a treat offered she will go right into focused-mode with an automatic sit and her full attention on you. That quality typically translates into a dog who trains with ease. Darla enjoys toys and can easily self-entertain. If you’re tired of playing- she doesn’t mind, she’ll just play with her toys by herself! Don’t worry, she didn’t mind sharing with the other dogs or handing it over when asked. Same with food, Darla loves food but is unbothered while sharing treats, dinner or having her bowl touched. Darla will need a cat-free home, we suspect she has never met a cat before so when introduced to one she wasn’t sure enough for us to feel confident she wouldn’t chase a cat or stress one out with her every interested approach. She’s super smart, easy company and full of so much loyal love! She’s playful but not too energetic to handle, lovey but not overly pushy about it, loyal but not too “velcro,” this girl is just the best of ALL worlds! She is 100% good dog, fluffy, beautiful and ready for a life of love! It is really impressive to see how she handles new environments, she may be uncertain but she is still at ease, takes it slow, curiously checks things out and checks in with her people. She only needs a few moments before she feels good and ready for anything. The same thing can be said about her with kids too and how she meets kids! She has been around kids as young as 4 years old and her sweet nature shined through with them as well once she had spent some calmer moments with them. She was not phased by the running around, jumping, loud noises, and those random unexpected movements little ones are known for. She never jumped for affection and was gentle all the way around. We believe she has all of the traits to be a wonderful addition to a family with kids. Darla is easy on leash, but prefers a harness. It didn’t take her any time to understand the leash so nothing is set in stone there, you can try both and see what you and her prefer together Darla, her soft kisses and playful love are ready for forever! If there is anything not covered here that you are curious about, please be in touch! Be are committed to ensuring Darla is the right fit for you and your life.
