Description
*** Check Out My Video Album Below! *** Meet CJ, an outgoing and affectionate Great Pyrenees who is ready to find his forever home! CJ is housebroken and leash trained. He will sit for a treat, minds really well, and knows when it's bedtime, showing he's eager to please and could easily pick up some new tricks with a little practice. A 5-foot fence suits his needs, and he can’t wait to have a yard of his own to explore! CJ has been wonderful with other dogs, both big and small, and loves to play. He has been submissive if another dog snaps at him when he gets too rowdy, and he has been around approximately 40 other dogs since arriving in rescue with no issues. He would do great with a doggie friend, but could also thrive as a solo dog with plenty of doggie playdates. CJ absolutely loves people and has been great with everyone he's met, so he is expected to do wonderfully with kids too. He doesn't dig, and his barking is average for a Pyr, mostly at squirrels and while he's playing. CJ enjoys being both inside and outside, though he especially loves the air conditioning. He rides great in the car, likes being brushed, and enjoys his toys. He's not picky about food and considers anything a treat! So far, nothing seems to bother or scare him, not even storms or fireworks, and no behavior issues have been noted. CJ is an independent thinker who is very loving, playful, and can also be quite chill. He's gentle and soaks up attention from people, whether it's petting or belly rubs. He still has a lot of young-dog energy, so the ideal home for CJ would be medium to high activity. Energetic, loving, playful, and outgoing, CJ is truly a special pup who loves people and dogs equally and would make a fantastic addition to an active family!

More Information: Questions? The fastest way to learn more about a dog is to fill out our Adoption Application. If you call or e-mail you are reducing your chances of adopting this animal as we direct our time and energy to first serving those who apply. NYS Registered Non-Profit Rescue # RR102. National Great Pyrenees Rescue (NGPR) has been rescuing and adopting out Great Pyrenees since 2006. Our relationship doesn’t end with adoption, as we continue to support adopters throughout the lifetime of their dog. Our goal is to assess every application on its own merits. Key considerations are: 1) the experience of the applicant with large breed dogs 2) children in the household or regularly visiting the household are ready for a large-breed dog who is a guardian by nature and 3) the sex of other dogs currently residing in the household to avoid same-sex aggression issues. For puppies under six months old, the applicant’s ability to socialize the puppy with older dogs is a priority. We have many Pyrs and Pyr mixes who need homes.
