My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

TESS is 6 yrs old, but you’d never know it as she is an active, playful girl. She is very sweet and loves affection, and hugs. She does well with one of the male Pyrs in rescue. We aren’t sure how she is with cats. She is housebroken and good in a home. Her previous family claimed she has a food guarding issue but they only had her for four days. We’ve been working with her here in rescue and have not seen the behavior replicated but a dog savvy family, with older kids, just because of her size, might be best. Like a lot of dogs in rescue she’s been moved around a lot and deserves a family who will love her and give her only the best.

Note: Great Pyrenees are considered a Giant Breed. Average weight can be 100lbs. or more. They bark, shed and have a wanderlust, so secure fences are a must have. They are NOT off leash dogs and a Pyr off leash is called a "dis'a'Pyr". Some Pyrs do well with other dogs and some don't because by the virtue of their breed traits they were bred to keep out intruders and can consider some dogs as intruders. While they make wonderful pets and family dogs, they aren't for everyone so be sure to understand and learn about the breed traits of this breed or any breed you might be considering.
