Skye – Female Great Pyrenees Age: ~2 years Weight: ~65 lbs Spayed: Yes Coat: Thick double coat, primarily white Activity Level: Calm companion with guardian instincts Overview Skye is a sweet, affectionate female Great Pyrenees who has been part of our family since May/June 2025. She has a gentle, people-oriented temperament and enjoys being close to her humans. She displays many of the calm, observant traits typical of guardian breeds and does best with predictable routines and clear expectations. This rehoming decision has been made with care. While Skye is a wonderful dog, she requires a different household setup and more specialized training than we are able to provide. We believe she would thrive with an experienced owner familiar with guardian breeds. Health Spayed Up to date on vaccinations On heartworm, flea, and tick preventatives No known chronic medical conditions Dogs: Skye’s reactivity is context-specific and limited to the indoor home environment only with our resident dog. She and our other dog spend hours together outside without any aggression, and she has not shown dog-to-dog aggression in other settings, including at her pet sitter’s home where other dogs are present. This suggests her behavior is related to indoor environment or household dynamics rather than generalized aggression. Cats: Lives with cats and ignores them completely. People: Very affectionate and loving with adults. Children: Does well with children. She regularly stays with a pet sitter who has a 9-year-old, and she interacts appropriately with our 13-year-old daughter. Temperament & Social Behavior Skye is not aggressive but benefits from confident, consistent handling and clear boundaries. Training House trained Currently working on crate training No formal obedience classes yet Responds best to calm, consistent guidance Ideal Home Skye would do best in a calm, structured household with an owner experienced with Great Pyrenees or other guardian breeds, where her indoor routines and transitions can be managed thoughtfully and she can be fully integrated into daily life. Reason for Rehoming Skye is currently kept separated from our other dog only while inside the house, which we feel is not fair to her long-term quality of life. While she does very well outdoors and in other environments, our indoor household setup is not the right fit for her needs.

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.
