In the shelter’s words

*** Check Out My Video Album Below! *** Kenzi is a happy, athletic, fun-loving Pyr who seems to have a permanent smile on her face! She was found as a stray in Indiana after tornadoes hit the area, and she’s now ready to find an active family to call her own. Kenzi is super smart, eager to learn, housebroken, and leash trained. She is also crate trained and sleeps in her crate at night. Her favorite things in the world are playing and hanging out with other dogs, going for walks and hikes, and getting belly rubs. She’ll happily roll over for a tummy scratch and make it very clear that she’d prefer you never stop! She also loves treats, bully sticks, and chews, and she does great in the car. Kenzi absolutely LOVES other dogs and must have a canine companion around her size who enjoys wrestling, running, and playing as much as she does. She gets along with both males and females, respects older dogs who prefer a quieter life, and would do well in a multi-dog household. She enjoys spending time outside, especially when another dog is out there with her, so a 6-foot fenced yard is a must. Although Kenzi loves people and happily makes new friends, she seems to love dogs even more! She has been friendly with everyone she's met, and even her vet's office and dog sitter adore her. She would be a great companion for an active family who enjoys outings to parks, walks, hikes, and kids' sporting events. Kenzi has lived with 5 cats and will playfully chase them, but she doesn't hurt them. She responds to commands and redirects easily, and she stops when the cats hiss or swat at her. Her experience with children has been limited, but she should do well with children older than seven who understand and are comfortable around energetic dogs. Kenzi enjoys being both inside and outside with her family and canine buddies, but she doesn't like being alone (or storms). Fortunately, having another dog around helps her feel comfortable, even when her people leave the house. Kenzi's cheerful personality, boundless enthusiasm, and tremendous love for her dog friends make her a special girl. If you have an active home, a playful canine companion, and plenty of belly-rub time to spare, Kenzi may be the perfect addition to your family!

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. You can see more of these beautiful dogs by clicking on Adoptable Dogs.
