Description
Dog Breed: Great Pyrenees (long coat). Adoption Fee: 275. Meet Otter Otter is a 2-year-old Great Pyrenees mix who came to us alongside his likely brother, Panda, after being rescued from an FLDS commune in rural Arizona. The two lived together on a small petting-zoo hobby farm, and despite their rough start, both boys have proven to be incredibly gentle, loving, and resilient. Otter looks a lot like Panda — big, fluffy, and soulful — but with his own calm, easygoing personality. He’s neutered, up to date on vaccines, healthy, and great with other dogs, livestock, and cats. Otter is affectionate and friendly but also has that classic Pyrenees watchfulness — the kind of dog who quietly keeps an eye on everything, content just being near his people or his pasture. While both dogs would do well individually, we’d love to see Otter and Panda adopted together if possible. They’ve been through so much side by side, and their bond is strong and heartwarming to see. If you’ve been dreaming of two gentle giants who balance playfulness with peaceful companionship, Panda and Otter are your perfect pair. Located in Montana, with transport available throughout the PNW.

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.
