Description
Dog Breed: Great Pyrenees (long coat). Meet Josie! She is a female Great Pyrenees currently around 4 months old and 30lbs, we expect her to weigh 80-100 when fully grown. She has a long white coat with brown spots on her ears. She loves all people and will seek out your affection and attention. She is eager to please and very smart. She loves kids but will need some instruction on how to play gently with them, she is a big puppy after all. Josie loves other dogs and has no fear around the big ones. She just wants to play with every dog she meets and thinks they're all her best friends. She will bark to join in with the other dogs in her foster home but otherwise is quiet. She is very playful and energetic puppy. She loves squeaky toys, especially fuzzy ones, and when you play tug-of-war with her. Sometimes she will run so fast she will loose control and 'crash' into something while playing. She is a goofy girl. While we think she is mostly Great Pyrenees, she might be mixed with a retriever or pointer breed. She loves to play fetch and has exhibited the 'freeze and point' trait when she sees squirrels. Josie enjoys walks but will pull if she sees something interesting. She gets nervous during car rides but does well when someone is sitting in the back with her. She is getting better at potty training and working on it at her foster home. She sleeps will in a kennel overnight and enjoys taking her naps in one too. Josie is an incredible sweet and fun puppy, she will be a wonderful addition to your home. Josie is spayed and up to date on vaccines. Her adoption fee is $300. She is currently in a foster home in DFW area Texas. Out of state adopters are responsible for arranging their own transportation. Apply to meet / adopt Josie 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.
