Alexander ("Alex")

Hi - my name is Alexander but I prefer to be called "Alex". I know, some of my photos are old. I'm growing like a weed and our poor volunteer photographer can't keep up with me! The most recent photo of me is the one where I am photobombing Taylor's photo shoot. I'm in the background chilling out in the exercise run next to hers. One of our volunteers decided to do a DNA test on me and also on one of my sisters. We both came up with about 45% Great Pyr and about 25% Anatolian Shepherd. The rest is a little bit of "this and that". We do know our mommy was predominantly Pyr and our daddy was said to be some sort of livestock guardian, so we believe the DNA results. I'm a little different from my siblings - I have a bobbed tail. It is genetic (and confirmed with my DNA test). Its so cute and wags like all the others when I am happy. When I got to AGPR, I was a "scrappy little devil". I have grown almost over night and I'm now a long legged handsome boy. My coat is medium length and will be a bit easier to keep under control (remember - it is all relative). I can't wait to find my forever family and home. I'm hoping for a nice big yard so I can run and play. I'd be a great walking or hiking buddy with my long legs and enthusiasm. Do you think I'd be a good addition to your family? All Great Pyrenees require a fenced-in yard (at least four foot high). If you have questions about the breed or our adoption policies and procedures, please go to our website at www.agprescue.org. There's plenty of good information about the breed on our website - Pyrs aren't a breed for everyone! Our adoption application is online: http://agprescue.org/adoption-application/agpr-application-donations/ Please note that we are a small regional rescue organization. We will consider adopting to families within a four to five hour drive to Richmond, VA
