Meet Rio!  Rio is a 10 week old Pyrenees (possible Akbash/Maremma mix, DNA is pending) from the “Kia” litter and the large PNW rescue.  Rio is the smallest of the bunch, but has a very BIG personality!   He is a sweet and playful male puppy who loves to cuddle and will happily crawl into your lap. He is always there when you want a friend.   He is witty and fun loving.  He does well with children over 6 and other dogs.  He has not been observed living with cats yet, although he’s viewed barn cats and shows little interest.  He’s doing well with crate and potty training. Rio also sits patiently for his food. Rio’s easygoing nature would make him a wonderful addition to a home with a playful adult dog.  He is still a little “mouthy” and will need help to be gentle and calm.  If it’s on your “wish list” for puppies, he’s mastered the Pyr paw!  Transport is limited for this boy, so please inquiry before applying.

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.
