Description
Dog Breed: Great Pyrenees (short coat). Meet Stella! She is a 4yrs old, 70lbs, sweet, good with kids, low energy, female Great Pyrenees. She came from a local shelter where she was adopted but then returned for chasing the family's cats and was placed on the euthanasia list. That's when SPIN Rescue stepped in. Stella is very sweet and gets along great with everyone, including children. She has done well with most dogs, although has had some issues with other female dogs in the past. She is currently in a foster home with several other large dogs who she tolerates well and has made friends with a few of them, especially the more submissive ones. Introductions with other female dogs should be done with care. Stella loves going on walks and playing with Nyla bones. She walks well on a leash, but it is still relatively new to her so she does pull some, however she is quickly learning and improving. She is house trained and does very well waiting to go outside. She is crate trained. She does well on car rides. Stella has been known to bark when she hears a noise that she is unsure of, especially if she's outside. Stella has a fairly low amount of energy and for the most part enjoys lounging around in the home on whatever comfortable dog bed / blanket she deems best. She is mostly independent but does love to be pet and will become your best friend if food is involved. Stella is currently in a foster home in DFW area, Texas. Out of state adopters are responsible for arranging their own transport. Stella is spayed, up to date on vaccinations and on heartworm preventative. Her adoption fee is $250.

Breed overview
Great Pyrenees
A.K.A.: Pyrenean Mountain Dog, Patou, Chien de Montagne des Pyrénées, Pyrenean, Big White Dog, Bear Dog, Gentle Giant, Great Pyr, Pyr
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.
