Description
Dog Breed: Great Pyrenees. Meet APA—a gentle, soulful senior who was once at risk in a shelter. One incredible family stepped up to save him, believing he would be with them forever. They poured love, stability, and safety into his life—and we are so incredibly grateful for everything they’ve done for him. But life threw them a curveball. They’ve now been stationed and, with heavy hearts, can no longer keep APA. Now he’s looking for a new soft place to land—someone to help him feel safe, loved, and home again. APA is a mellow, affectionate boy who just wants peace and kindness in his golden years. We don’t know how he does with other dogs, cats, or animals, so a slow and careful introduction would be best. Apa is being fostered in Utah.

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.
