Hi, there. I’m Cooper, and it’s good to meet you. My foster mama says I’m such a sweet boy, but I’m timid too. I need a gentle touch because the world is a new and scary place, and like all pyrs, I need a lot of love to feel safe. A calm home would be best for me too as I get used to everything, but I do adore kids as long as they know not to chase me or play rough. I like other dogs too, but I’m still getting used to playing with them. Around cats, I do a lot of tail-wagging and sniffing; they’re sweet little creatures! Livestock animals are not really my thing, though. Foster Mommy says I could really benefit from another dog companion to show me how to be a house dog. I’m also learning how to walk on the leash, and Foster Mom tells me I’m doing great! If you’re looking for an ultra-sweet and sensitive baby boy, then I’m your pyr. Please take me home and help me get used to the good life!

Buongiorno, my name is Aldo! I’m not Italian, but my name sure sounds like I am. I’m as sweet as a cannoli, and my coat is fluffy white like the filling too. Right now, I’m still a little shy because I came from a farm. I’m so ready to live la dolce vita, or the good life in Italian. In Italy, people love walking by all the palazzos, or pretty buildings. I want to learn how to walk on the leash, so we can see our own neighborhood palazzos, or houses. My GPRA walker friends say I’m getting better on the leash every day, and they always say, “Grazie Mille,” or thank you very much, because I look to them for cues on what to do. I take direction very well! And, when we’re home, we can snuggle on the couch while the pasta is boiling. Maybe, we’ll make baked ziti or lasagna! Either way, I’ll be happy just being with you. GPRA volunteers have also boasted that I’m a dog lover’s dream! Will you take me home and help me learn what living in a villa, or a house, is all about? I promise I’ll be the best good boy this side of the Mediterranean Sea!

Hello, my pyr-loving darlings! I’m Ambra, and my name means precious jewel. My foster parents think I’m certainly special because of how sweet I am. My name also sort of sounds like amber, which is a type of jewel. I like it because it’s yellow like sunshine, and Foster Mama says I just love being outdoors! Fancy as my name sounds, I came from a farm, so the backyard is such a familiar and fun place to be. Sometimes, though, it’s nice to enjoy the fresh air by going for a walk in the neighborhood. My foster parents say that I’m still learning how to walk on a leash, but like a diamond in the rough, I’ll learn and then be brilliant at it! Ambra can also mean “Ruler of the Jewels” which is funny because I actually prefer following my doggy foster siblings around the house. I’m learning so much from them. They’re teaching me how to be a house dog, and I’m loving it! I’m an absolute gem of pyr, and I can wait to come home with you!

Hi, there! I am the magnificent Buddha boy! I think you will agree that it’s hard to accept that my previous humans sent me to a shelter because they moved. Yes, a shelter! Why would humans do this to me? I’m just a loveable and fun young Pyr eager to learn everything possible to be the very best-mannered and faithful companion! Are you ready and willing to invest the patience, time, and training to help me? If yes, then I am your boy!
Here is what GPRA’s volunteer walkers know about me.
“Buddha is sweet, adorable, and playful! He can be a spitfire and full of energy.” (Of course, I am a bit rambunctious, I’m a young and fun boy!)
“Budda will be awesome with a dedicated owner who will put in the time to train him. He shows great adoration for some of GPRA’s walkers and will be a wonderful buddy.” (If you want to be my buddy, I’ll be yours!)
“Buddha is such a smart, friendly, and affectionate boy.” (I try to be a good boy, and I also have a lot to learn yet!)
“Buddha is very curious and friendly with the other dogs. He loves to entice other dogs into playing with him.” (Playtime is the best time!)
Pyr-ready for the best life, Buddha

Hi! I’m Clemens! I’m a 7 month old boy. My owner left me, I don’t know why, but some other nice people tried to take care of me for as long as they could. I’m good with other dogs and people. I’m housebroken and walk well on a lesh. More info coming soon…

What does a 7-month-old, 65 lb. sweet puppy do with all her energy? Well, if I lived with people who had a yard and time to play with me, I’d probably run from corner to corner then rollover for tummy rubs. If I had dog siblings (or even dog friends), I’d pretend wrestle and grab their tails. Or, if I had a cat, I’d play chase and always let Kitty win. But now, because I live in a small apartment with a very busy parent, my pent-up puppy energy is slowly turning into slight resource guarding and I’m playing with things that apparently are not toys. I’m housetrained and know basic commands I just need the right place for a young dog. If you have time to love and play with me, please email info@greatpyratlanta.com, click “Contact Us” or choose “Apply to Adopt” below.
