Sapphire is a beautiful girl who is as brilliant and rare as her name suggests. She came to rescue with her siblings after being surrendered by the farmer who bred them. This girl, a Great Pyrenees/Anatolian Shepherd mix is not only beautiful, but loving, playful and smart! Sapphire is all girl with a very confident personality—a natural leader. She gets along great with all the dogs in her foster home and is always up for the next adventure. She loves to go out in the big yard to join the others in a fun game of chase and wrestle with her siblings and the resident big dogs. Sapphire adores her people and loves nothing more than taking a nap under her foster mom’s work desk where she is often found fast asleep. She also loves going in the big Pyrs’ crate to nap! Sapphire is a natural on a leash, ready to join her new family on a walk around the neighborhood or hop into the car to explore the world. She is crate trained and house broke too. Sapphire is very calm and loving and would do great in a home with children! She will need a home with a secure 5’-fenced yard and a male canine sibling; a cat would be welcome too. Sapphire is ready and waiting to meet her new family and learn so many more great things! If you have large breed experience and plenty of time and love, Sapphire wants to learn all about you; she is ready to shine under your loving guidance!

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.
