My Story

Hello, Pyr People! It’s your girl, Sasha, here, and I’m absolutely thrilled to meet you. Do you know my name means “helper of mankind”? I’m great at helping people be happy because I’m so loving and affectionate. My GPRA friends can tell you that there’s nothing I love more than a good belly rub. Sometimes, I like to just lay down or sit beside you and get all the cuddles you can give me! I can also help you blow off steam by having you play ball with me. Chasing tennis balls is my favorite thing to do after snuggling! If you want to get refreshed on a nice long walk, I can help you do that too. I love taking walks; they are very fun and exciting. The holidays are coming, so you might want to hit up a coffee shop drive-through. I’m in because I’m an excellent car rider, and I enjoy seeing the sights! When we get home, you can brush my beautiful fur as we get cozy on the couch. I like being groomed! I’m such a happy girl just waiting for my fur-ever home. I can’t imagine a better start to the most wonderful time of the year than coming home with you!

My Story

Hi there! I’m Beauty (but I also go by Belle—it’s what I answer to the fastest)!

I’m a super sweet, loving, and goofy girl who’s always ready to get belly rubs and sniffs from anyone who will stop and pay attention to me. I’m gentle and kind-hearted, and I absolutely adore people and kids. I’m kind of the “Miss Congeniality” of the dog park—everyone stops to tell me how beautiful I am!

I love getting belly rubs, especially from my foster mom, but I’m not picky about who gives them—if you come near, I’m there for the love. I’m still learning some things like the “sit” command, but I know “wait” and “come,” and I’m working hard on being even better. When we go for walks, I do love a good sniff, though I’m usually a good girl on the leash, except when I spot a squirrel. They’re just too interesting and I want to sniff them!

I’m pretty chill at home and love to just relax. If my foster mom has to leave, I’m not a troublemaker—I mostly sleep and chew on a few toys while she’s gone. I’ve got great house manners and never have accidents inside.

When it comes to food, I’m not super excited about it. I’ll nibble when I’m ready, but I do have some favorite treats like pepperoni sticks and pig ears. I’m not a big barker, but I will give a low grumble or bark if something unexpected happens around my place, like a visitor at odd hours. But don’t worry, I’m not one to cause a ruckus—I’m much more about cuddles than complaints.

I’m perfectly fine with brushing, I actually love it! Even though my foster mom invites me, I’m not interested in getting on the furniture. I just prefer my dog bed or the floor. I do like riding in the car, but I can use a little assistance getting in. My foster mom says, “Up,” and I’ll put my front paws in, then I’ll hop in with her help. I’m still figuring it out, but I’ll master it soon.

So, if you’re looking for a sweet, affectionate, and quirky companion, I’m your girl. I promise I’ll make you smile every day—whether it’s with my gentle nature, goofy habits, or love for belly rubs. I can’t wait to meet you and start this next chapter of my life!

P.S. If you ever find yourself wondering why I push food out of my bowl and onto the floor, no one really knows. (Don’t judge me—it’s a thing. It’s just something I do! 😊)

My Story

Hi, I’m Luna!

I’m a big, lovable goofball with a heart as huge as my paws! If you walk through the door, expect me to greet you with an excited bark and my signature standing hug—I just can’t help myself! I adore my humans so much that when they come home, I get so happy I cry and bounce around like a kangaroo. I do bark at visitors when they enter the home, but I quickly welcome them and enjoy being petted.

Food? Oh, I love it! I’m not picky at all, but don’t worry—I have good manners and won’t beg for people food. Toys and bones? Yes, please! I love them too, though I prefer to keep them all to myself when my foster brother is around (a girl’s gotta have her treasures, right?).

I have the perfect balance of energy and relaxation. Walks are my jam—I get excited and might bark at a passing truck, but I’m working on it. And when playtime is over? I’m all about snuggling. I’ll happily curl up on a dog bed, the couch, or even better—your lap (who cares if I’m a bit too big for that?). If you sit down, I might just crawl on top of you, nuzzle in, and drift off to sleep. My foster parents say I’m a big couch potato with sweet puppy dog eyes. 😍

I know my basic commands like sit, shake, and heel, and I’m doing great on a leash. I’m house-trained, I use the doggy door, and I don’t chew on things I shouldn’t. Oh, and furniture? Yeah, I’m allowed on it, and I take full advantage!

One of my silliest habits? Chasing my own curly-Q tail! It makes my foster family laugh every time. Zoomies? I do those too! I’m just a happy, affectionate pup looking for my forever home where I can give all my love (and standing hugs) to my favorite people. Could that be you? 🐾

My Story

Hi there! My name’s Luigi, and I’m a sweet and curious pup who’s looking for my forever home! I’m currently living in a foster home with two awesome foster doggy siblings, and while I’m still a little shy when meeting new people and dogs, I’m warming up every day. It’s been so exciting to learn new things and have lots of fun!

I’m a pretty playful guy, and I love treats! I can get really excited when I see one coming my way. My foster mom gave me a slow feeder bowl because I tend to eat fast, but I’m still learning to be a little more patient at mealtime. Don’t worry, I don’t protect my food or toys – I’m easy-going when it comes to sharing, whether it’s my bowl or my favorite squeaky toy.

Even though I’m a good walker, I also enjoy cuddling up on the couch and getting some quality belly rubs. I’ve even learned to sit, lay down, and come when asked (though I still need a little encouragement to do it quickly). I get a little shy when called, but I’m working on it!

I’ve also been learning how to communicate that I need to go outside for potty time. Right now, I’m watching my foster dog siblings use a training bell by the door, and I’m trying to figure it out too. Sometimes, I just give my foster mom a little nudge to let her know it’s time for a bathroom break.

I’m not a big fan of loud noises like fireworks or sirens, but I’m getting braver with every passing day. And when it comes to car rides, I’m a little hesitant at first, but once I’m inside, I’m all good! I’m also not a huge barker, just a normal, average amount of barking for me, mostly when I want to say hello.

One thing that always makes my foster mom smile is the little grunting sounds I make when I stretch or when I’m greeting them. Oh, and I have this funny habit: before I settle down for belly rubs, I’ll turn around and show my tush first. It’s my way of saying, “I’m ready for some love!”

I may be a little shy at first, but I’m growing braver every day, and I promise that I’ll be your best friend if you give me a chance. I’m just a calm, sweet, goofy puppy, and I can’t wait to find my forever home where I can be loved and share my quirky personality with you.

My Story

Hi! I’m Mario and came to GPRA with my brother, Luigi. We have quite the story to tell.

On the morning of September 29th, everything changed. The air was thick with worry as news spread about a terrible fire at the Bio Lab. We had no idea what was happening outside our little world in the shelter. But soon, we learned we would have to leave in a hurry. The humans were evacuating us due to some scary fumes in the air. It was dark outside as we were loaded into crates. We were scared and confused as the sounds of chaos filled the air. Just when we thought things couldn’t get any stranger, a kind lady from GPRA arrived. She seemed determined to help, and before long, we were in her van and on our way to a new place.

As we drove away from the chaos, we snuggled against one another. The lady had a warm smile and gentle hands. She took us for a little walk when we arrived at her home. We could feel the tension melting away as we rolled in the grass, inviting belly rubs. It was the first time we felt safe in what felt like forever.

The next morning, we were met with another surprise: a bath! We were a bit unsure at first, especially since we were both so itchy and flea-infested, but once we were was all cleaned up, we both felt like new dogs. After our bath, we met another kind lady from GPRA, who whisked us off to the vet for our intake appointment.

The vet was friendly and we could feel the love from everyone around us. It was hard to believe that just the day before, we were in such a scary situation. Now, we were on our way to a new life.

We’re excited to find our forever homes! It would be best for us to be adopted separately, so we can each get all the love and attention we deserve!

My Story

Hey there! I’m Fred – but my foster family calls me Frederick or Freddio.

I’m a sweet, loveable, goofy, and playful guy who’s come a long way from my very rough start in life. I’ve been through some tough times, but I’m bouncing back and living my best life with my foster family, while learning to trust again.

I’m completely potty trained, super smart, and loyal. I’ve learned a lot of commands like “sit” and “down.” I’m still working on “paw,” “stay,” and “heel.” I can be left alone without any issues, which is pretty awesome, right? I love being outside and going for walks. I’m really good on a leash, and I’m learning that those delivery trucks aren’t out to get us. Even though it’s still a bit of a struggle, I’m working on it every day.

I’m a little protective when it comes to my home and my favorite humans, so I’ll keep a watchful eye on anyone who seems suspicious. I’m especially protective of my foster momma – that’s because she’s my person, my best friend – but I’m ready to be your best friend too! 🥰

I have a favorite game – tug of war with my squeaky toys! I like all my toys but the reindeer, dinosaur, chicken, and elephant are my top picks. I’ll bring them right to you and place them on your lap so we can play! We’ll play with one for a few minutes, and then I’ll bring you the next one, and so on. Car rides are the BEST and I enjoy tagging along wherever you go.

I’m super smart and catch on to things quickly. I love to be brushed and petted and will happily lay at your feet when you’re on the couch – just hanging out and relaxing together.

I’m looking for an adult-only home with a family who will love me, continue to build my confidence and trust, and be patient as I settle in. I’ll show you all the love I have to offer and just how good of a boy I can be! If you think we’d be a good match, I’d love to meet you and start our next chapter together!

My Story

Hello! I’m Buddy Pan, a lovable Great Pyrenees/Golden Retriever mix, and I’m on a journey to find my forever home. I’m a big cuddle bug who loves to snuggle and be close to my humans!

I’ve been with my current foster family for a few weeks, and I’m already making great strides. When I first arrived, I was a bit overwhelmed and had some fence-fighting moments with the resident dogs, but after some face-to-face playtime, we’ve become buddies, and the backyard is much calmer now!

I’m learning to control my excitement and not jump up on people, and I’m doing great with my roomies, Bandit, Grits, and Kiun. We eat next to each other without any issues, and I’m not food-guarding anymore. I even let my foster mom take my bowl while I’m eating—what a good boy I am!

I’m fully housetrained with no accidents and I get along splendidly with cats and people alike. My leash manners are improving, and while I’ve been known to be reactive to other dogs and people in the past, I’m learning to stay calm on our walks. I’ve had some great outings, like at the vet and Home Depot, where I was a perfect gentleman!

I have a lot of energy and love to run, fetch, and retrieve toys. I’d thrive in a home where I have a furry friend to play with, as I’m used to being around other dogs. I’m eager to please and very trainable, just like my Golden Retriever side!

I’m looking for a dog-savvy adopter who can continue my training journey. With the right guidance, I’ll be the fantastic companion you’ve been waiting for!
