MARSH - GREAT PYRENEES / MIXED (MEDIUM COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Great Pyrenees / Mixed (medium coat). Meet Marsh, a Great Pyrenees born approx 7/10/23, and the sweetest little love bug you will ever meet. He is the perfect size for any lap, coming in at 25 lbs., and that is one of his favorite places to be. He is definitely an old soul, wise beyond his years, with a calm, assessing demeanor. He may be white, but he is definitely my little shadow following close behind me as I move through the house. He just wants to stay close, which can be a tripping issue at times, because he is just so quiet you forget he is at your feet. He is laidback and mostly just likes to snuggle up with you or sometimes even behind your head on the back of the couch. He also has a habit of chasing and catching his tail, it is the cutest thing! He has been great with meeting new friends of both the human and dog variety. He does well with his two larger foster brothers, but really lit up and tried to play when we met a friend who was more his size. He has not been cat tested, but given his calm demeanor, I don't think it would be a problem. He has picked up a few toys, but they haven't really held his interest too long, although I think he might get there if you take the time to entice him to play. He LOVES treats, and he is smart. He figured out quickly that he gets a treat for coming back inside on his own, so now he tries to sneak out and then come back in right away to get a second one! We have had no accidents in the house so far, and he goes all night without needing a bathroom break. We haven't worked too much on training yet, but I think he will take to it quickly due to his food motivation. Overall, he is pretty quiet, although he doesn't love being crated and can make some noise about that but seems pretty trustworthy and non-destructive when left to his own devices free in the house. He usually chooses to sleep at my feet in the office even when he has the freedom to be go other places. He came here with a few cuts and scrapes that are now healing up nicely, and he hasn't been touchy about me checking them or touching his feet, ears, or tail. He is just looking for a little love and a place to call his very own. Could that be with you?
