Description
Dog Breed: Great Pyrenees / Border Collie (medium coat). Mia's situation is one we hear far too often these days, her family could not find a place to live where she could come too. She is temporarily living with extended family but that is not a long-term arrangement and so Mia is looking for a family who will commit to her, for forever! Mia is a Pyr/Border Collie mix but isn't as high energy as you might expect. She does enjoy a nice hike on the weekends but is also a great couch potato and cuddler! Mia doesn't have much experience with cats but hasn't met a dog she isn't instant friends with! She's a dog park regular and another dog to play with in the home is really a must for her. Mia is sometimes a little slow to warm up to new people, especially men. But just give her a minute or two and you'll soon be good friends. She would love a fenced yard but she's also used to just leashed walks too. She's a good girl when left alone inside. Mia hasn't ever lived with kiddos but has occasionally been around a few littles and done fine. Respectful kids should be fine with her. This sweet girl is waiting for her new family in Southern Utah.

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.
