Description
Dog Breed: Great Pyrenees (medium coat). Hi, my name is Lizzy! I was originally named “Liza Minnelli” because of my beautiful dark masking eye shadow markings around both of my eyes. A lady in the SPIN foster group says I look like a 2 of Diamonds! I’m just lucky SPIN saved me from a shelter and took me into the loving foster homes of SPIN. I’ve been waiting on my permanent forever home since Spring of 2024. This past Saturday I had the most wonderful play date with a couple of my former Great Pyrenees buddies, Carson and Teeny. It was just like old times, chasing squirrels, running around the big grassy yard playing chase. And then all of us Great Pyrenees piling inside for a drink, cool off, eat dinner, then a big fat nap. I’m only about 2 years old, very well-behaved (at least I think so), house trained, great with other dogs, and love going on neighborhood walks (because as you know, Great Pyrenees are real show stoppers on a walk). If you are a big dog person, want a social, well-behaved big dog, I’m your girl (Lizzy)! Thank you for looking at SPIN rescue dogs for adoption. I would have been toast if SPIN Rescue hadn’t saved me. SPIN Pyrs are all in foster homes in the Dallas/Fort Worth area.

Overview:
The Great Pyrenees is a majestic and ancient breed, originating in the Pyrenean mountains between France and Spain, where they served as formidable livestock guardians. Physically, they are large, powerful dogs, easily recognized by their thick, double coat, typically white (though sometimes marked with badger, grey, or tan), and a distinctive "double dewclaw" on their hind legs. Despite their imposing size, their temperament is generally calm, gentle, and remarkably patient, making them excellent companions. They possess a natural protectiveness, which translates to a watchful eye over their families and property. While loving and tolerant with children, their size and barking tendencies make them less suited for small apartment living; a home with a yard is ideal. Prospective owners should be aware of common health concerns such as hip and elbow dysplasia, patellar luxation, and certain eye conditions, emphasizing the importance of responsible breeding. Their independent nature also means they require consistent, positive reinforcement training.
