Description
Dog Breed: Great Pyrenees (medium coat). Adopt Emmy! She is a 1yr old, 55lbs, female Great Pyrenees. She is very sweet and gentle. Emmy is great at meeting new people! She seems to have had some abuse in her past as when she first came to her foster home she would cower when you reach out to pet her, but she has since learned humans are great. She would do well in a home with kids and seniors, as she is gentle and does not jump up. She wants to please and be loved. She does well with the large dog in her home and will rest her head on his leg for naps. When at an event surrounded by lots of dogs barking, she sat quietly and didn't react. We don't think she would be good in a home with cats, as she enjoys chasing rabbits and squirrels. Emmy is playful and loves toys. She also loves a good snuggle and especially enjoys her dog bed. She does well on a leash and does very well in the car. She doesn't bark often, usually only joins in when the other dog in the home is barking (unless you crate her, then she has a lot to say about it). Emmy does not like to be crated but does well in a secured space in the house at night or when left home alone. She has a tendency to find decor she thinks are her toys and will get at any food you leave out. She still has a little puppy in her after all. She is also currently working on potty training, and has the occasional accident inside. Sweet Emmy is looking for a kind forever family that can play and snuggle with her. She is currently in a foster home in DFW area, Texas. We do adopt out of state, however adopters out of our area are responsible for arranging their own transport. Emmy is spayed and up to date on vaccines. She is currently undergoing heart worm treatment, SPIN Rescue will provide her adopters with medication to continue. Apply to adopt Emmy at .SpinRescue

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.
