Snowball is a happy young Pyr girl who is playful and friendly with everyone she’s met. She’s young and learning house manners, including basic commands. She is leash- and crate-trained. She is a fan of car rides, treats that she can bury in the yard, and doggie toys of all kinds. She responds well to corrections and is always sporting a big happy grin on her face. This pretty much describes her personality. Her foster mom explains: “She’s a very sweet girl who wants to entertain her humans.” She’s a world-class snuggler with long, soft fur. This lovely girl is fine with the resident cats, and perfect with other dogs, loving to play, and then crash for some cuddles. Snowball would do best in a home that has a male dog for her to play with in a 4’ fenced yard, and where she can get regular attention from her family members. - Written by M.M.

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.
