Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Snowball is a happy puppy who has all of the charms of a sweet girl. She is a Pyr mix with beautiful bright blue eyes and ears that can lay flat like a Pyr, and also stand straight up! She walks well on a leash, is crate trained, already knows how to “sit” and “come,” and is learning other house manners. Like all young pups, she plays and sleeps hard, and is exploring her new surroundings. She gets along with everyone in her foster house, and is sure to do great meeting new people of all ages, as she has a sweet pyrsonality. She’s adjusting well and enjoys playing with her Pyr foster siblings (she has a special fondness for the boys!). Snowball would love a fenced-in yard to play in (a 5-foot fence will do the trick). This enchanting girl isn’t really interested in digging, barks less than the average Pyr, and much prefers spending her time playing indoors with toys and the other dogs in her foster home. She also enjoys going on car rides, and playing in the water. - She desperately hopes that her furever home will have a canine brother (or two!) for her to play with, and a kiddie pool for endless splashing fun!

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. We may consider fostering for some of our dogs who are in boarding. Please visit Fostering FAQfor an application and information about our fostering program.
