Description
Dog Breed: Great Pyrenees (long coat). Meet Keira! She is a beautiful and sweet 5 yr old Great Pyrenees mix. She is currently underweight at 60lbs, but loves having her extra meals and treats as we are slowly putting some weight back on her. Keira loves people, dogs of all sizes, and does really well (ignores) the cat in her foster home. She has not met children yet but based on her gentle and calm nature, and that she doesn't jump up, we think she would do great. She enjoys meeting new people. Keira is very mellow and low energy, spending most the day napping with her dog friends or near her foster mom. At night while her parents are watching tv, she likes to go back and forth between them getting pets and cuddles. She will try to get the dogs in her foster home to play sometimes, but they are older and not interested. She would love to have a playful companion in her home but would also be okay being an only dog. She loves stuffy toys and does not shred them. It's clear she has never been on a leash before coming to her foster home and was only used for breeding. She is very hesitant and will refuse/pancake as she gets nervous. If her family likes to go on walks or public outings they will have to have some patience and put in some training with Keira before she will be ready. Luckily she has low exercise needs and is more of a speed bump. She is potty trained and will let you know when she wants to go outside. She rides well in the car but currently needs assistance jumping in. She doesn't bark much other than the occasional random barking when she hears something but can be redirected. She is very patient getting a bath and does well. Keira is a very sweet, mellow girl looking for a forever home to spoil her. She is spayed and vaccinated. Her adoption fee is $250. She is currently in a foster home in the Dallas / Ft Worth area Texas. Out of state adopters must arranging their own transportation. Apply to meet and adopt Keira 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.
