Logan - Snuggle Bug - Juvenile Great Pyrenees Indianapolis, IN

Logan and three other Great Pyrenees were surrendered to a shelter due to a divorce. He was kept outdoors with the other dogs, and was not well socialized.
Logan has since been moved to a foster home, where he is flourishing with the other dogs as his buddies. He is still a little timid with people, but is doing better every day. We estimate he was born in June of 2023. We require obedience training for all newly adopted pyrs less than a year old, to help you create a special bond with you and your new friend, and so you have a well behaved canine. Great Pyrenees are willing to learn, but are not as eager to comply with commands as much as other breeds. They are bred to be independent thinkers. Applicants must be over 25, own their own home and all children in household must be over 6years old. Your resident pets must be up to date on vaccines, sterilized, you must have a good history of vet care for them for the past two years, and you must have used heartworm preventative year round for your dogs and be able to provide proof of purchase for two years too.

Logan will be placed as an inside pet with outside privileges. You MUST have a securely fenced yard accessible from your home. Invisible fencing does not work with this breed and they will take the shock for the freedom. Great Pyrenees are bred to roam and will create their own territory if not secured, which can led to them being lost, hit by vehicles or shot by people who see them as a threat. The breed is not a good off leash dog, and cannot be trusted to not run away. A Great Pyrenees off leash is a " DisAPyr."

We do not place dogs under age 2 with resident dogs of the same sex. As Great Pyrenees mature, they can become more dominant with dogs of the same sex in the household. The resident dog's personality is also taken into consideration too. Male puppies are adopted with a neuter requirement that they be neutered between 18 and 24 months old. Neutering giant breeds too young can lead to osteosarcoma and joint issues for them later in life. By allowing them to benefit from their hormones, we hope to extend the life of the dog as long as possible. Proof of neutering is required, and $100 of the adoption fee will be returned with proof of sterilization.
