Introducing ELSIE! This puppy is growing fast and adapting well to the routine is her foster home. She loves to run, wrestle and play with her litter mates in the back yard. Like most puppies, they are looking for mischief, playing with toys, digging holes, barking at airplanes, and chewing on whatever they can pick up. Initially, she was shy and concerned about her new surroundings and caregivers, but now she is gaining confidence, and eager to please. Elsie and her family (two adult dogs and seven pups) were rescued from a flooded property in early February. GPRS received them after a six week stay in a shelter. She will require a family with another confident, playful dog, and assertive people that can provide positive training. Elsie is currently being fostered in Burien, WA. 

OUR REQUIREMENTS FOR PUPPY ADOPTION:

1) PUPPIES WILL ONLY BE PLACED IN HOMES THAT HAVE AT LEAST ONE MEDIUM TO LARGE YOUTHFUL, PLAYFUL RESIDENT DOG that is age 1 or older. This helps integrate the dog into your household easier by giving the pup a mentor.

2) These puppies are not livestock dogs. They must be family pets that are allowed inside the home.

3) In addition to the youthful playful dog, someone must also be home at least part of the day. Please do not apply for a puppy if you are gone 8+ hours a day.

4) We give preference to applicants with prior Great Pyrenees knowledge/experience.

5) Secure and visible fencing required.

6) You must have a plan in place to socialize your puppy properly.

7) Please do NOT write us and ask if this puppy is available. If it is posted, it is available. However, we may be working other applications that came in before yours. If so, by the time you are approved, the puppy may not be available.
