Have you ever dreamt of embarking on a grand adventure, where every day brings a new tale to tell? To wander through forests, cross mighty rivers, and return with stories to share around the hearth? Then, perhaps Bilbo Waggins is the loyal companion you've been seeking, ready to join you on a journey worthy of song and legend.
Bilbo Waggins has already lived a life worthy of the most epic of tales. Much like a wanderer lost in the wilds of Middle-earth, he began his journey as a stray, fending for himself in the harshest of circumstances—much like Frodo's early struggles before the quest truly began. His path was uncertain, filled with hardships and challenges, but destiny had other plans. His tale took a dark turn when he found himself imprisoned in the shelter, facing the looming shadow of death row—like Frodo standing at the crossroads of the Shire, unaware that an even darker fate might await him. But just when hope seemed lost, Bilbo was rescued, though the scars of his past adventures ran deep. However, the weight of his journey proved too much. Fearing what the future might hold, he fled from his foster family, much like Aragorn disappearing into the wilderness, uncertain and unwilling to face what lay ahead. For days, he wandered alone, seeking a sense of safety and control. But fate, as it always does, caught up with him, and he was returned, weary but wiser, ready for the next chapter in his adventure. Bilbo may have faced trials and turmoil, but like all great heroes of Middle-earth, he’s resilient and full of courage. His journey is far from over—he’s simply waiting for the right companion to help him write the next chapter.
Bilbo is estimated to be around a year old and weighs in at a perfectly manageable 62 lbs—no need to worry about constantly navigating around his massive derrière or cramming him into your car. He’s the ideal size for anyone seeking a dog with a big personality, but without the bulk of a full-on polar bear that requires its own room on the couch. Now, as far as his ancestry goes, it’s like you’re getting a two-for-one deal: Great Pyrenees meets German Shepherd. When his ears are down, he’s all gentle, soft-eyed Great Pyrenees—looking at you like he’s just discovered the wonders of second breakfast. But when those ears perk up, suddenly he’s channeling his inner German Shepherd: sharp, intelligent, and ready to tackle whatever challenge comes his way. It’s almost like you’re getting two dogs for the price of one, and the best part is, they both come in the same lovable package. It’s a truly magical experience, and let’s face it: who wouldn’t want to adopt a dog who’s got the charm of a Pyrenees and the brains of a German Shepherd, all rolled into one adorable, 62lb bundle of joy?
Despite Bilbo’s eventful past, it seems that adventure has a way of finding him rather than the other way around. He's a pretty chill guy who spends most of his days living the dream—napping in his cozy hobbit hole, lounging like a seasoned adventurer who’s been there, done that, and bought the t-shirt. Every now and then, you might catch him in a burst of excitement chasing a stray toy that dared to escape him. But let’s be clear—bringing it back? That’s a bit too much work for a seasoned adventurer like Bilbo. He's no Frodo, running around with a magical ring—he's more like Sam, content with a good meal and a comfy spot to rest. When it comes to leaving his home, Bilbo’s not exactly the "brave adventurer" type anymore. He’s more of a homebody—he loves his people, his fellow dogs, and his cozy spot by the fire. So, when it’s time for a car ride, you might find him a bit nervous, like a hobbit stepping out of the Shire for the first time, uncertain about what lies beyond. But once he realizes he won’t be left behind in Mordor (or some strange new place), he’ll settle in and ride like a true companion—though a little nervous panting may accompany his journey.
While Bilbo might not be keen on embarking on perilous quests anymore, he’s perfectly content to join you for a quiet café visit, watching the world go by like a furry version of a wise old wizard watching over Middle-earth. But don’t get him wrong—he’d happily trade in his adventure cap for a comfy blanket and some good TV. n fact, he’d make the perfect binge-watching companion. Think of him as your personal sidekick—couch potato extraordinaire—who’s never going to judge you for rewatching your favorite series (for the hundredth time). He’s got the temperament of someone who enjoys a peaceful, calm evening. When it comes to walks, Bilbo’s all about leisurely strolls, moving at his own pace, like a true hobbit out for a pleasant afternoon in the Shire. He walks beautifully on a harness, taking in the sights at a relaxed pace. But let’s be clear—he’s not about those early-morning, Elvish-style runs where you're sprinting through the woods like Legolas on a quest. If you’re into easygoing walks and enjoying the scenery at a comfortable pace, Bilbo will be your trusty companion.
Bilbo is a true friend to all who cross his path, as welcoming as a warm fire in the heart of the Shire. He absolutely loves the company of other dogs and would certainly request their companionship if his humans decide to venture off on a quest of their own. He may not have encountered cats yet, but given his gentle nature, we’re confident he would handle them with the same grace and charm as a hobbit meeting a fellow traveler for the first time. When it comes to kids, Bilbo enjoys the company of those who are calm and offer gentle pets. The younger, more energetic kids, however, are a bit much for our laid-back adventurer. He prefers his naps uninterrupted and, in the spirit of a hobbit who’s had enough excitement for the day, he’ll quietly wander off in search of a quieter, more peaceful place. And as for meeting new people, Bilbo is a bit more reserved. He’s not the type to rush up and declare, “I’m Bilbo, the best friend you never knew you needed!” like some excitable Labrador. No, he does have the spirit of a hobbit at heart, after all—discreet, polite, and only warming up once he’s sure you're a safe companion for his journey.
Bilbo isn’t one to shun a cozy space, and we feel he would do just fine in an apartment as long as he had someone by his side. He spent the majority of his adventures alone, and to be honest, that just isn’t his vibe anymore. Bilbo’s idea of a perfect day involves being close to his humans, soaking up all the love and attention he deserves. You can trust that he has impeccable manners—he’s potty trained and won’t be staging any house demolition projects. However, if there’s a shoe or a fluffy item lying around, Bilbo might feel the need to express himself artistically, creating a masterpiece of texture and chew marks—his very own “Gondorian rug” if you will. ;) Despite his noble Pyr heritage, Bilbo has no interest in singing the song of his people. He’s more of a quiet observer, only joining in if the other dogs start the chorus. Think of him as the Aragorn of the group—he doesn’t need to howl to be heard. He’ll happily watch the festivities from the sidelines, occasionally adding his voice to the symphony, but otherwise, he’s on the quieter side. So, if you’ve been searching for a Pyr mix who doesn’t bark at every shadow or leaf that rustles in the wind, Bilbo is your unicorn dog.
