Description
Dog Breed: Great Pyrenees (medium coat). Many of the dogs who come to rescue have had a hard life. Coco is only about 2 but has already spent way too much time living on her own and suffering. We don't know if she was dumped or lost, abandoned intentionally. Whatever the case, this young girl has been through a lot. She found her foster mom by wandering onto her property, and that saved her life. Emaciated and starving, her coat missing fur. Sweet girl is getting healthy now, her coat is growing back, she's had entropion surgery on both eyes. She's ready for her forever home! Coco adores her Pyr buddy, Ollie, they play a lot! She is even good with the alpacas!! But absolutely no cats for this girl! And she is not ok with chickens either. Coco loves people and is great with kiddos. She has not been inside much so will probably need some help with house training. She is currently being fostered in Southern 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.
