Description
Dog Breed: Great Pyrenees (long coat). A note from Duke: Hey there, I'm Duke! A soft, loyal, slightly goofy guy looking for my forever home. I'm happiest when I get to run, dig cozy holes to nap in, or go on sniffing adventures (my nose leads the way!). I'm a bit of a climber too-fences don't slow me down much-so I'll need a safe, secure space to keep my exploring paws where they belong. I love food, toys, and finding the squeaker in every toy I meet. Snacks and playtime are my two favorite things! I also know basic commands and I'm a really good listener when you talk to me kindly-I'll even roll right over for belly rubs. I get along great with dogs of all sizes (except one unneutered male who just rubbed me the wrong way) and I'm cat friendly too. The truth is, I'm a gentle soul. I get a little scared when voices are raised or there's sudden movement, so I'd do best with someone who has a calm, patient energy. Leash walks are fun-unless there's something really interesting to smell, then I might tug a bit. My fur is super soft, but when I get muddy (which I love), the dirt mysteriously ends up on the floor once it dries...can't imagine how that happens?! Oh, and one more thing, I don't like the color red. Don't ask me why, I just don't trust it. If you've got a farm or plenty of room to roam, I'd be the happiest boy by your side. I've got a big heart, a playful spirit, and I'm ready to love my person forever. Love, Duke. Duke is in Snohomish and can be available within WA-OR. All our dogs require secure VISIBLE fencing.

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.
