Description
Dog Breed: Great Pyrenees (long coat). Adoption Fee: 275. Meet Thor Thor is a stunning 2-year-old purebred Great Pyrenees with a heart as grand as his name! This gentle giant was rescued alongside his daughter, Lainey, after the two were found wandering into a neighboring pasture in rural Utah. The rancher planned to shoot them for wandering off—but thanks to quick action by animal control and our rescue team, both were saved just in time. Thor is the picture of a classic Pyr—calm, loyal, and full of quiet strength. Despite what he’s been through, he’s incredibly gentle and kind. He enjoys attention, loves being near his people, and has that signature Pyr mix of independence and affection. Thor has done a wonderful job looking out for Lainey, and now it’s his turn to find a safe, loving home of his own. He’ll be neutered the week of October 7th and will be ready to go shortly after. Thor’s adoption fee is $275, which includes his neuter, vaccines, and microchip. Thor’s journey from a dangerous situation to a second chance is nothing short of heroic. He’s proof that even the biggest hearts can be gentle—and that every dog deserves a home where they’re loved and safe.

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.
