My story

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

My Requirements:
Kids 8 years or older

Hello there! I`m Bjorn, a great-big and fluffy Great Pyrenees who might be part polar bear. I`m only 80 pounds, but most of that is hair. My personality is sweet, affectionate and I love a good cuddle from my people. My energy level is low-medium due to my size. I`m still getting the hang of being an inside dog, so I need to learn potty training. Someone has already taught me how to sit and down, so I`m well on my way learning how to dog. My new home should have lots of space for me to hang out with my people, and they must be ok with dog hair. There are going to be white tumbleweeds blowing through your space but I`m worth it. I`m dog selective and seem to prefer females, but I`m uncomfortable when a dog jumps on me. I can live with cats that are dog savvy. Any kids in the home should be 8 years or older. If you`ve been looking for a fun new friend, you`ve found him!
