ss than 8 hours!! Meet Max, the Great Pyrenees! Just look at that smile! He is a big, lovable guy who relishes attention from people. At a whopping 94 pounds, he is still a bit thin, and will probably top out at 105 pounds. His estimate birth date is February 24, 2013. His main focus is his humans. He loves little kids and adults, too. His favorite activity is relaxing indoors and getting lots of loving. This laid-back boy excels at lounging on cool floors. He also loves going the park and greeting everyone he sees. Like most Pyrs, he expects that all people will love him and will want to pet his gorgeous face. He is a dream on the leash and loves his daily walk – he keeps close on the left side with a slack leash. He will even sleep quietly in your bedroom until you wake in the morning. During the day, he doesn’t bark unless he really sees something. And he doesn’t bother anything in the house. Max is nice to cats – he just ignores them. With other dogs, it seems he could take ‘em or leave ‘em, so he might be fine as an only dog. Likely due to his time as a stray, Max is leery of moving around in a new place, so his new family will need to be patient and help build his trust. While he gets comfortable in his new surroundings, Max needs a human to be home much of the time. All of our dogs require secure and VISIBLE fencing. Adoption Fee: $275 * Note to NW Adopters: The adoption fee does not include the cost of transport. There are many things YOU can do to help us: 1. Adopt! If this Gentle Giant looks like the one for you, fill out an adoption application today! 2. Foster! This is a temporary commitment that gives all dogs in need the assured time to find the loving home they deserve. Your benevolent decision to foster unquestionably determines whether a loving dog gets to live or die. 3. Donate! Safeguarding these Gentle Giants result in expenses that are in upwards $8/day. If veterinary care is needed, the costs exponentiate to $1,000+ for a single dog. Every penny you donate makes an impact when it comes to vet bills! If you were to make a one-time donation of just $25, you would be adding 3 more valuable days to the life of every rescued dog and provide the chance to find the home they have been waiting for their entire life. As always, all donations are gratefully accepted. If you are interested in adopting this dog or need further information, please contact GPRS at info@gprescuesociety.org or fill out our SHORT application form. Every dog adopted thru the GPRS program is up to date on all vaccinations, spayed/neutered and on heartworm preventative.

  1. Do your research - find out what types of dogs would be a good fit for your lifestyle and the activity level of your family. Also keep in mind the grooming needs of certain breeds that might require frequent maintenance.
  2. Decide what you can handle - before you get sucked in by all the adorable puppy eyes you're about to see, think long and hard about the appropriate age dog for your family or if you are capable of caring for a special needs dog. Puppies are a lot of work, if you don't have time for potty training and obedience classes you'll want to consider an older dog. There are plenty of middle aged, vibrant dogs up for adoption as well as many senior dogs that would be a great fit for a family looking for a more subdued dog with lots of love to give.
  3. Learn about the shelters and their adoption policies - It might be easier to start looking at shelters within a certain radius of home but don't be afraid to venture out to other states as well. Many states have larger populations of adoptable dogs and their shelters are willing to transport pets to suitable adopting families. Some shelters might have requirements for a home visit, a fenced yard or require you to visit the pet multiple times before you commit to adopting. Understand that the shelters are doing their best to place the pets in suitable homes and these requirements are in the best interest of both you and the pet
  4. Start looking… - Once you know what you're looking for and what to expect you can start your search through thousands of adoptable dogs. PuppyFinder allows you to search by age, breed, location and gender.
  5. Meet in person. - Whenever possible it is best to meet the animal in person before agreeing to bring them into your life. Even though photos and descriptions can tell you a bit about a dog, you can't get a true feeling for the animal until you are able to interact with them and make sure they are a good fit for your entire family, including other pets.
