Description

Dog Breed: Great Pyrenees (long coat). Adoption Fee: $375. **Tune in to our Facebook page (Great Pyrenees Rescue Society - GPRS) every Sunday at 3pm CT to see our dogs LIVE! You can also find previous episodes on our YouTube channel (gprspyrs). If you would like a specific dog to be featured on our show, please email us at infogreatpyreneesrescuesociety ** Some dogs bounce into a new place like they’ve lived there forever. Mavis is a little different. Born around February 2024, Mavis spent the beginning of her life living in a very old farmhouse in a remote part of Texas with an elderly woman who loved her. When the county evicted her owner from the property, Mavis suddenly found herself needing a new start. Through it all, she has remained the same gentle, friendly girl with people. She loves attention, enjoys being near her humans, and has a soft, sweet personality that shines once she settles in. With unfamiliar dogs, Mavis can be a little more reserved at first. Because of that, she could do very well as an only dog, soaking up all the love and attention for herself. She would be okay living with another dog in the home provided introductions are slow, thoughtful, and guided by someone experienced. She has recently learned how to walk on a leash and spend time in a crate, and she’s been doing great with both. Like many dogs who are adjusting to big changes, she just needs a little patience and a calm environment to help her feel secure. Mavis is the kind of dog whose bond grows deeper and stronger with time. The kind who starts out a little cautious....and then becomes the loyal, loving companion who thinks the world of her person. She’s a beautiful girl with a very sweet heart, and she deserves a home where she can finally relax, feel safe, and be loved for the rest of her life. If you believe the best friendships are the ones that grow slowly and last forever....Mavis might be your girl.

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.
