Description
Dog Breed: Great Pyrenees. This is the bestest girl right here. At just 2 years old, this 70-lb Great Pyrenees mix is the total package — sweet, loyal, and gentle with that classic Pyr heart… but with a bonus: she actually listens, is treat-motivated, and truly cares about what you think (yes, really ). Sophie came into a Texas shelter as a stray and was never claimed, but she hasn’t let that dim her light. She’s spayed, microchipped, up-to-date on shots, kennel trained, housebroken (as far as we can tell), and walks beautifully on a leash now. She’s wonderful with large and small dogs, cats, kids 10+, and adults. She’d be happy as your one and only — but would also love a buddy to snuggle and play with. She sleeps wherever she chooses at night like the queen she is, and while she’s still deciding how she feels about dog doors, she’s perfectly content in her kennel when you’re away for short periods if time. If you’re looking for a loyal shadow, a gentle protector, and a soft, snuggly best friend who just wants to be yours… this sweet girl is waiting. If you are interested in meeting Sophie, the first step is to complete our meet and greet application at .corgisandfriends/forms We require the application, home and reference check, and meet with everyone in the home. Her adoption fee is $375 and we do not adopt outside of Colorado.

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.
