Hello, Pyr Friends! Give a warm welcome to The Oakland Litter! Pyr pups are special, and to be raised right, they need training through positive reinforcement, which means rewarding behavior with treats and praise. Like all puppies, they need potty training, leash training, and basic command training. And, of course, these precious bundles need lots of love! There’s this really cute group shot of some of us, and then each of us pups have two pictures each. First up, we have Miss Wahoo. Her foster mom says that she is very smart and the life of the party! Wahoo loves to play with her foster siblings and with her toys, and she is respectful of other dogs. There’s a cute pic of Wahoo hanging out at her foster home, and it looks like she is saying, “Hi!” The next few photos are Americana themed. First, we have another male named Bagel! This Bagel boy is described as brave, curious, and the leader of the pack. Makes sense because Bagel is a big pyr pup! Bagel is shouting, “Happy Summer!” Burrito is next, and he is  a male too. His foster mom says that he is an absolute sweetheart! He loves to be where his humans are and has a calm personality. Please consider adopting one of us pyr pups and helping us grow into lovely pyr boys and girls!

Hi folks!
We are Bilo and Bilu – the sweeter than honey bonded pair just waiting to meet you and stick to your heart.
Our owner had to surrender us because they weren’t able to care for us any longer. That makes us sad, because we love our humans and have so much love to give.
Since we just arrived, the GPRA folks are still getting to know us, but here are some things the fabulous volunteers have to say about us:
“precious pair”
“love to get loved on”
“beautiful and sweet”
Yes, we are blushing underneath our floof. What can we say? Come and meet us. We know we will add the love your home needs (x2!).

Bonded Pairs are adopt one and get the second one for half the adoption fee!

Hi. I am Anya, and this is my brother, Freddie. We were littermates and have always been together, through awful days and now good ones. To give you a little window into our previous life, we lived tied up on a five-foot chain. (Yes, it was horrible.) Now, it is time to put the past behind us and set our paws on a path toward happier days.
GPRA has learned that we are loving, friendly, active, and playful Pyrs. But, of course, as young Pyrs, we still need lots of leash work and obedience training (so, at least in some ways, we are like every young dog)!
We are thankful that GPRA is helping us return to our “Great” Pyrenees status. Now that we no longer live tied up, Freddie loves running around a big yard and feeling free, so he would especially like having a backyard. As for me, I’d love a yard, too! But, I just want my brother happy, and as long as we are together, I will be happy, too!
Pyrly thankful, Anya and Freddie

Hey there! I am Grizzly (AKA Grizz), and this is my great friend and lifelong companion, Harper. Isn’t she gorgeous? Despite neglect and abandonment, we had each other, and because of that, we are bonded, which means that GPRA wants us adopted together because we share quite a special bond.
Harper: “Grizz, it’s my turn now. Can I share the story about our guardian angel? Our guardian angel and now foster mom jumped at the opportunity to help us when our previous owner no longer cared to look for us and get us home safely.”
Grizz: “As great guardians of humans and anything else we want to keep watchful eyes on, we did not know guardians existed for Great Pyrenees. Ours is a very caring human who knew we needed help.  Despite abandonment, we have kept our loving Pyr hearts. If anything, our hearts are bigger because we are Pyr-grateful!”
Harper: “Some of our early pictures show the result of living a neglected life, but we are gaining weight and getting healthier each day. One day, our fur will look as gorgeous as all of the other Pyrs waiting for adoption.”
Here are a few things our guardian angel/foster mom knows about us.
“Grizzly is very funny, playful, easy-going and loves his best Pyr-friend and girlfriend, Harper. Harper is incredibly easy-going and strolls along.”
“Both Grizzly and Harper are friendly and kind dogs that love to hang out with their humans.
“Grizz and Harper will need a very secure fenced-in yard as they may attempt to go over a fence or get through a small opening, if not supervised. They are currently living on a horse farm and love country living.”
“Both dogs enjoy three walks every day and have relatively good leash manners.”
“I adore these dogs and their undeniable bond to each other. Both are full of fun and mischief, too! One day, Grizzly emptied my horse tack trunk by carefully removing 14 brushes and scattering each brush around him. Then, Harper joined the fun by grabbing a bottle of fly spray and placing it next to her. Grizzly and Harper are delightful and joyful Pyrs!” (Yep, we know how to have fun with our humans!)
So, that’s our story! Are you ready for a Pyr- fun adventure with Harper and me?
Pyrly yours, Grizzly (and Harper)
