Female Dog, Great Pyrenees
Great Pyrenees (Long Coat)
Description:
Meet Opal, a precious young Great Pyrenees girl with pearly-white coat of long, beautiful fur! This active puppy was found as a stray in Tennessee alongside her mama and sister, and she's now ready to find her forever home. Opal is already crate trained, and learning her leash walking skills and basic commands, and she definitely knows the most important words—"dinner" and "eat!" On walks, she has that typical puppy enthusiasm with a little jumpiness, but she won't try to drag you down the street. What makes Opal extra special is her sweet, observant nature—she loves to sit back and watch the world go by. She's very friendly with other dogs and would thrive in a home with a male canine companion to romp around with. While she hasn't had exposure to kids yet, her fun-loving puppy personality suggests she'll do wonderfully with older children. Opal enjoys both outdoor adventures and cozy indoor time, and she absolutely melts when being brushed or given treats. Though she's still a bit nervous about car rides, she's sure to gain confidence with patience and love. Her ideal home would be with an active family who has a secure 5-foot fenced yard where she can play and explore safely. If you're looking for a loyal, gentle companion who will grow into a magnificent Pyr, Opal is your girl!

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.
