ANNA - GREAT PYRENEES (MEDIUM COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Great Pyrenees (medium coat). Meet Anna! She is a sweet baby that survived a gruesome attack by three larger dogs that resulted in the amputation of her back right leg. Now she has become the sweetest dog ever. She has bounced back from her injuries and having only three legs doesn’t seem to phase her at all. She is playful in the backyard and can easily hop onto the couch. Anna is an approximately 9 months old Great Pyrenees mix and weighs about 50 pounds. She will probably remain petite and will top off between 60-70 pounds. She is all white and has medium length fur and an extra-long tail. Anna gets along with everyone she meets both men and women. She is gentle with kids but needs to be in a home with kids 7 and older due to her injury (younger children tend to put their weight on dogs and that could injure her due to only having three legs). She is in a foster home with other large dogs, cats, and teenagers and loves everyone. She is crate trained and rides very well in the car. In fact, she will calmly sit in the passenger seat like a human. Anna loves to cuddle on the couch with you or help you make dinner by providing a speed bump in the middle of the kitchen. She wants to be around people! She loves chew toys and a soft bed to sleep in. She also loves to find dirty socks that your teenager may have left on the floor of the laundry room. She hasn’t conquered stairs yet but we think she could learn. Anna is still learning to walk on a leash and she does well most of the time. Occasionally Anna gets nervous or shy. She does not like to be picked up at all and has a nervous bladder at the vet or when she gets very startled or scared. She is house trained and will go to the back door to let you know she needs a potty break. She understands “no,” “crate,” and “outside”. She responds to her name. Anna would love to be adopted into a home with people that love her and with another friendly dog to play with. (SPIN requires you to have another playful dog in the home to adopt a puppy her age). A small backyard is okay. She would love to go on short car rides with her people to drop kids off at school or run a quick errand. She is a super happy, affectionate dog and would do well as a work-from-home companion because she is so quiet and just wants to be close to her people. She may even pop her head into a Zoom call every once in a while. Anna is ready for her forever family and can’t wait to meet you. OUR REQUIREMENTS FOR PUPPY ADOPTION: 1) PUPPIES WILL ONLY BE PLACED IN HOMES WITH YOUTHFUL, PLAYFUL, DOGS. This helps integrate the dog into your household easier by giving the pup a mentor. 2) In addition to the youthful playful dog, someone MUST also be home at least part of the day. Please do not apply for a puppy if you are gone 8-10 hours a day. It is not a good situation for you or the puppy. 3) You must have plans in place to socialize your puppy properly. 4) Our puppies are not livestock dogs. They must be family pets that are allowed inside the home.
