BELLE - GOLDEN RETRIEVER / GREAT PYRENEES / MIXED (MEDIUM COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Golden Retriever / Great Pyrenees / Mixed (medium coat). BELLE is available! Belle is a very tall 3 to 4-yr-old spayed Pyrenees mix. She is playful, affectionate and friendly with people and dogs, but will chase cats, although she has not hurt them. Belle loves children, but she is so tall and boisterous that she could accidentally knock over a small child. Belle is strong but walks well on a Sidekick leash. She has been to many public events and adores meeting people and shaking hands; she is very sociable. Belle loves to bark, dig, and bury her bones and toys in the backyard, so a dog door or unsupervised yard access is not a good idea. Belle does not like to be crated, but she will tolerate gates and a large play yard set-up if needed, but she is great in the house and does not get in any trouble. She requires a 6-ft wall and a good-sized yard. Belle needs exercise to work off some of her enthusiasm - leash walking will not be enough. She loves to play with other dogs, and has spent quality time in foster care where she has gotten along very well with multiple big dogs. She does love to roughhouse - small, elderly or frail dogs are not a good match for her. We would want a meet and greet prior to adoption to assure compatibility with any resident dogs. She loves to cuddle in bed, so Belle would appreciate home with a king-sized bed and affectionate owner to share it with, but can also sleep in her own bed on the floor.
