My name is Mick in OH - Independent & Inquisitive Pup!!

I like that old time rock and roll… the kind of Pyr Puppy who just soothes my soul! Oops, those aren’t the words, but we have a litter of 9 fluffy Pyr pups who will rock your world! Who is your favorite Rock Star?-we have them all- Mick, Ozzy, Bowie, Axl, Ringo (5 boys) and Janis, Tina, Stevie, & Aretha (4 girls). This fluffy ball of love is Mick, and he is loving life playing with his siblings and his mama who is teaching him dog manners! They are being raised in a home with kitties and other dogs where they were born on April 10 to mama Cruella after she and their daddy Courage were surrendered to rescue. Mick is a special little dude who loves life and spending his time playing, napping, and being loved by his people. After a good romp in the sun, he will pass out under a shade tree or in front of the fan! He really loves food too—especially when something tasty gets added! Mick is an independent & inquisitive boy who would do great in a home with a big canine sister, a secure fenced yard and parents with guardian breed experience. This boy is ready to spread his wings to find his next rockin’ adventure and help you have your best summer ever!

NYS Registered Rescue # RR102

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.
