Story
Meet Beryl aka Miss Bea (if you please!) aka Your Future Couch Potato & Loyal Sidekick! Miss Bea returned to us after one of our beloved Coordinators passed away unexpectedly. Miss Bea is about 8 years old, a Great Pyrenees mix (aka Fluff Queen), and about 65 lbs. of pure snuggle potential.
Beryl is a sweet, senior lady who’s a bit shy at first - kind of like that one friend who takes a while to warm up but then becomes your ride-or-die. She’s excellent with cats, other dogs, older kids (12+), and she loves the outdoors… just not in a “let’s run a marathon” way.
Miss Bea requires a fenced yard (she’s too dignified for leash zoomies), a person who works from home, is retired, or has a flexible schedule (she’s a low-maintenance roommate).
Beryl’s Dream Home is quiet, calm, and full of love (she’s not a party animal), a human who doesn’t mind the “awkward phase” where she’s scared of men but quickly becomes a cuddle champion once she knows you, someone who needs a chill companion with a side of sass and pawing for attention. (Don’t worry, she won’t drag you down the street. Beryl’s all about relaxed walks.) She also needs someone who has the time to spoil her with attention and understands that trust takes time. She’s got a lot of love to give, but she’s not into the "speed dating" vibe - she prefers a slow, sweet burn to a lifelong friendship. If you are home more often than not and want a dog who’s more “chill vibes” than “chaos,” Beryl might just be your spirit animal.

All known information about an individual dog is provided in its listing. We do our best to provide accurate information, but adopters should understand that each home is different and the dog may behave differently in a new home. Dogs are creatures of their environment and you help make the dog what it will be. Homes considering adopting a puppy must be prepared for 1.) Flexible schedules for potty training. Puppies can only hold it for one hour per month of age (i.e. a 4-month-old puppy can only go 4 hours without a potty break). 2.) Crate training until the puppy is at least one year old to prevent chewing on inappropriate things when you can't supervise. 3.) Socialization. The more positive and varying experiences as a puppy the better, both in and out of your home. 4.) Puppy behavior and life stages are equivalent to a human toddler. It takes at least a full year to have a calmer, well-adjusted dog. Patience is required and when your dog's behavior is a positive experience for you and those around you, your patience will be rewarded ten-fold, for years to come. Please do not consider adopting a puppy if you have not thoroughly thought through the pros and cons of having one. So many people end up returning them after 3-5 months because they didn't realize the amount of work involved in raising a puppy. Patience, appropriate toys, socialization, and obedience training are all musts. All are time-consuming and can be expensive. All dogs require supervision with children and obedience training. Adopters that want to have good dogs must be prepared to put the time and effort into training a dog. Any dog requires work and effort, but a well trained, well-socialized dog is more than worth the effort to get them there.
