Max - adopted

Welcome cute little Max, a pyr/lab mix. Max is an owner surrender, never been in a shelter (lucky boy!) He is a fun little foster dog, loves to play with the dogs and cats, and takes plenty of long naps with my kids, who think he is about the greatest dog ever (and we have had a few around here!) He has the shorter (yet fluffy) coat of the lab, and single attached dew claws on the back feet, thanks to his Pyr dad. He has a laid back personality that we can also attribute to his pyrenees genes. He has some fawn colored markings around his face and a few spots on his legs and feet. At 11 weeks old, Max is about 18 lbs. Max was born on 11/25/09 and is neutered and up to date on vaccinations. Puppies go fast, so if you are thinking about adopting Max, get an application in today!

About Us: National Great Pyrenees Rescue (NGPR) is not a shelter. We are a not-for-profit, tax-exempt coalition of Pyr rescuers and rescue groups. We save Pyrs and Pyr mixes across the country and place them in approved foster homes to learn how they will interact with your family. NGPR dogs are fostered for a minimum of two weeks or more, spayed or neutered and fully vetted before placement. NGPR will take back any dog who does not succeed in its new home. Many NGPR volunteers are members of the AKC breed club, adhere to their rescue guidelines for purebred Pyrs and apply these standards to the adoption of Pyr mixes as well. Visit www.nationalpyr.org to learn more about us, our mission and our breed.
More Information: Questions? The fastest way to learn more about a dog is to fill out the application form. If you call or e-mail you are reducing your chances of adopting as we direct our time and energy to first serving those who apply. For more information about our adoption process please visit our adoption information page.
Want to help but can’t adopt now? You can make a tax-exempt donation by visiting our donation page.
We have many Pyrs and Pyr mixes who need homes and not all of them are posted. You can see more of these beautiful dogs by clicking on Rescue Dogs.
