Great Pyrenees/Golden Retriever mixes — often called Golden Pyrenees — are big hearted, gentle, and people loving dogs who blend the Golden’s affectionate, eager to please nature with the Pyrenees’ confidence, independence, and guardian instincts. As puppies, they’re typically social, curious, and full of energy, with a natural love for the outdoors and a tendency to bond closely with their humans. They grow into large, sturdy dogs who thrive when they have both mental stimulation and plenty of space to explore.   Their ideal home is one that offers active living, consistent training, and lots of companionship. These mixes flourish with families who enjoy outdoor adventures, have room for a big dog to stretch their legs, and are ready to guide a smart, confident puppy into adulthood. Because they’re affectionate and people oriented, they do best in homes where someone is around often and where positive reinforcement is part of daily life.    What to Love about Winnie: Winnie is confident, curious, and already has an impressively steady temperament for her age. She loves exploring, entertaining herself, and getting her wiggles out — she’s far more interested in playtime and adventure than being glued to your side. She does wonderfully with all people, including kids, and is a friendly, submissive playmate with other dogs. She’s even good around cats, just a little cautious as she figures them out.   Winnie is working on potty training, crate training, and leash skills, and she’s excited to keep learning how to be the goodest girl in her future home. She would thrive with an active family who enjoys hikes, outdoor fun, and letting her explore the world. If you’re looking for a cute, happy, energetic ball of fluff who’s ready for adventure and eager to grow, Winnie is your girl!   Winnie’s Winning Highlights: • 2 month old, 12 lb Pyr/Golden mix with a bold, independent spirit • Confident temperament and impressively steady for her young age • Adventure ready pup who loves hikes, exploring, and outdoor fun • Self entertaining — happy to play and keep herself busy • Friendly with all people including kids; not overly clingy or needy • Submissive, gentle playmate who gets along beautifully with other dogs • Cat friendly with a cautious but sweet curiosity • Working on potty training, crate training, and leash skills • Thrives in any home type thanks to her adaptable, confident nature • Happy, active ball of fluff ready to learn, grow, and be the “goodest girl”   Comprehensive details are provided in the dog's description. to ensure a smooth process, please submit a completed application through our website at: http://crisisdogsnc.org/dog-adoption/.
