Description
Dog Breed: Great Pyrenees (medium coat). Maggie came to us in need of a new home because her mom lost her home. It was a sad situation and one her mom did not want to happen. Maggie's mom had fostered for us many times and we were glad we could then help her avoid taking Maggie to the shelter. Maggie is great with all people and especially adores kiddos and is good with cats. She needs slow, proper intros with other dogs and usually prefers males over other females. She's a typical female Pyr and likes to be in charge! Maggie is currently being fostered in Idaho.

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.
