Description
Dog Breed: Great Pyrenees / Border Collie (medium coat). Border Collie/Great Pyrenees mix male puppy Welcome Yukon from Tulare County Animal Services! Yukon is believed to be a border collie / Great Pyrenees mix (taking more heavily after the GP - he’s got the double dew claws and curl in his tail to prove it). This monolith puppy is nothing but pure joy and smiles. He is sure to light up a room with his sweet, floppy, and silly soul. At 4.5 months and 32lbs currently, this guy will likely be 70lbs+ at maturity. Every time he takes a step it’s accompanied by a giant THUD and we can’t get enough of it. Yukon sleeps soundly in a crate overnight and seems to follow each and every move the resident dogs make, including where to go potty. He is playful but respectful of the big dogs and because of that, they all seem to love him too. He is going to make a fantastic family dog or even therapy dog with his gentle spirit and calm (for a puppy) disposition. He is microchipped, on a vaccine schedule, and can go home on a neuter contract. Yukon is in Arroyo Grande, CA More photos and updates: .facebook/.cchdrescue/ search in posts and photo albums.

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.
