Description
Dog Breed: Great Pyrenees (medium coat). Another sweet floof left behind. Hope was left in the middle of nowhere in WY. She just happened to find a kind lady who after several weeks decided she'd feed her, then Hope decided that was a good place to stick around! Sadly Hope's new caretaker wasn't able to care for her long term, and we had a foster step up! The rest, well, you know how it goes! Hope is a sweetheart and is great with other dogs. Good with cats too! She's gentle and adores her big Newfie foster brother. Hope is being fostered in Idaho and would love a forever family of her own!

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.
