Beautiful Teenage Pyr available for Foster/Adoption

Carlsbad CA

Description

We have a gorgeous neutered 2 yr old 120+ lb Great Pyrenees dog who is available for a new home. He’s been in trial as a working livestock guardian dog but we feel he may be better suited for a pet home (vs a working home). He isn’t really bothered by coyotes in the yard, but he’s not a fan of strangers on his property or roaming outside his fenceline. He’s looking for a *breed experienced*, dog savvy family who is willing to put in the necessary time and effort to teach him to be a fabulous adult house pet. An application and home visit will be required, and your dog experience must be demonstrated. Fostering will be required before you can be considered/approved to adopt him (and an adoption fee will be required if approved). If you do not live a leadership lifestyle with your dogs, please don’t inquire. This dog will be too much for you. Other things he needs: - a single family home with secure private backyard to enjoy - quiet home environment with low foot traffic (since he doesn’t like strangers) - parents who understand that diamonds in the rough require polishing which takes time, energy and commitment (so if you’re looking for a ready-made dog, don’t inquire) - parents who will let him dig holes (on occasion, at least), roll around in the dirt (once in a while), and bark (regularly); Pyrs bark and if you’re experienced with the breed, you’ll understand this (so if you live too close to your neighbors, please don’t inquire) - people who know that Pyrs are independent and highly intelligent, not robots; he isn’t always going to do what you tell him to do because he’s capable of thinking for himself (and also, he's a teenager) - people who want to wake up to a smiling white fluffy face every day, and who give belly rubs and ear scritches as often as possible Email for more info if this sounds like a pup you’d like to mold into the perfect family member.
