Hi there! My name is Persephone, but I go by Percy. I am about 7 months old and I'm still figuring out how to be a dog. My two foster brothers (both Great Pyrs) have been showing me the ropes, but I still need some help figuring out potty training. I've been working hard on it though! I do really well on walks and using my leash. I'm a good car companion and I like to go wherever you go. I'm still learning how to enjoy time in my crate. I bark a little bit at night and would really prefer to be wherever you are. I am pretty shy and timid. It will take me some time to get adjusted to a new home and to warm up to new people. I am looking for a forever family who is very patient and will give me lots of love. I love to play with my rope toys, bones, and tennis balls. I'm very good at cuddling on the couch and giving hugs. Percy is currently in Texas but can be on the next NW transport!

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.
