Description
Dog Breed: Great Pyrenees (long coat). Meet Jasper! This burning hunk of love is looking for his new forever home. Jasper loves everyone, except chickens, they are far too tasty to resist. He does well with other dogs, cats, kids and people of all ages. Want to take him for a walk? Jasper is a perfect gentleman on leash and has great recall off leash. He is currently recovering from ACL tear surgery and will need a couple months of leash walking and laying around, which he is perfectly fine with! Jasper is a big boy that weighs in at a very healthy 105 pounds. He needs to be brushed at a minimum weekly preferably daily and he loves it! Jasper has been a complete angel at his current foster. Jasper would do well on a small farm but he does need to be a house dog to be adopted from us, we will not adopt him as an outdoor, all the time dog, he is far to wonderful.

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.
