My Story

Hi there! I’m Maya, a lovable lady with a wagging tail and a heart full of sunshine! 🌞

Let me tell you a bit about myself. I’m a medium-energy gal, which means I’m always up for a fun romp in the park or a cozy snuggle on the couch. When my humans ask me to “sit” or “come”—I’m a pro at those tricks! And don’t worry, I’m always polite during mealtime; no food possessiveness here!

When it’s time to go outside, I’ve got a special way of asking—just a little tap with my paw! I’m a good listener and always know when it’s time for a potty break. And if you ever need to leave me alone, I’m cool with hanging out in the master bedroom, just don’t lock me up! Crates are a no-go for me; I prefer to roam freely in my cozy space.

I’m a little shy when meeting new furry friends, so I might bark a bit from a distance, but give me a moment, and I promise I’ll warm up. I absolutely adore cats and have shared my home with one before—no drama here, just friendship! Kids are my favorite, too; I’ve grown up around two wonderful ones (ages 13 and 18) and I’m always ready to play and cuddle.

I might bark at strangers at first, but once they show me some love, I’m all in for fun! Whether we’re going for a run or just lounging on the couch, I’m ready for whatever adventures come our way.

If you’re looking for a playful, affectionate, and loyal companion, I’m your girl! Let’s make some amazing memories together. I promise to bring joy, laughter, and endless cuddles to your home.

My Story

Hello, friends! My name is Meeko, and I’m a spirited girl who’s ready to find my next loving family. I recently lost my beloved owner, and I’m searching for a new place to call home—one filled with warmth and kindness.

I’m a high-energy pup with a heart full of love! I know my commands like “sit,” “stay,” “come,” and “down,” and I’m always eager to learn more. When it’s time to go outside, I’ll let you know by standing by the door, and I’m fully house-trained. I can’t wait to join you for fun walks or even a run!

I get along well with everyone—kids, other dogs, and even cats! I’m friendly and affectionate, and I’m used to being part of the family. I love to cuddle on the couch and enjoy being close to my humans. I’m great in the car, and I absolutely adore swimming.

If you’re looking for a playful and loving companion, I might just be the perfect match for you. I promise to bring joy, laughter, and lots of cuddles into your life. Let’s create new memories together!

My Story

Hello! My name is Bella, and I’m a gentle soul looking for a loving home. After spending my life outdoors, I’m learning the joys of indoor life, and all I really want is to be surrounded by love and kindness. ❤️

I’m a total cuddler and absolutely adore attention! I’ve even started giving my paw—how cute is that? While I’m still adjusting, I’m eating great with a mix of wet food and tasty additions like ground beef and turkey. Treats? Yes, please!

I’m a mellow girl who enjoys slow walks, although I have a little arthritis, so no hiking or jogging for me. I’m great on the leash, and I love hanging out on the porch with my human friends and their dogs. I’m friendly with other pets and do well with new people, especially when introduced slowly.

I’m fully house-trained and will let you know when it’s time to go outside by standing by the door. I love to be brushed and pampered, and I’m pretty easygoing when it comes to baths and grooming.

One of my favorite things is drinking from the birdbath—who knew it could be so refreshing? I promise I’m a low-barker, only chiming in to let you know when someone’s at the door.

I would thrive in a calm home without small children, where I can soak up all the love and attention. If you’re looking for a sweet companion to share quiet moments and gentle adventures, I just might be the perfect match!

My Story

Hello! I’m Arden, a sweet young adult looking for my new home. I’m a little shy at first, but once I know you, I am loving and trusting. I like to sleep on the floor near my foster’s bed. When I go on walks, I’m easy going unless I smell something really interesting. Then I pull a little because I have to find that smell! As far as other dogs go, I like them usually. I used to live with a bunch of dogs at my former rescue. I like to meet new people too. I don’t really play with toys anymore, but I do like a good bone to chew on. If you want to take a trip, I love car rides; they’re fun! I mostly like to be around my humans and get pets. If I want more petting and love, I give the famous “Pyr paw” to let you know. If you’re looking for a new companion, I could be your gal!

Our Story

Hi friends! We are Blanche and Guinevere and we’re looking for our forever homes. We’ve been told that we are delightful! As puppies, we do love to play and chew on toys and bones. We like to tumble around the backyard at our foster’s house. Kids are fine for us, as they like to give us attention. Our favorite things right now are to be cuddled and petted. We are still new to GPRA, so we are learning about them and they are still learning about us. If you are looking for a little bundle of joy to love and protect you, please apply to adopt.

My Story

I’m Maya, and I recently came to GPRA from a shelter in Georgia. My past is not clear, but I’m told that my delightful personality quickly won the hearts of the shelter workers, and, more recently, my foster family. I am eager to please and working on basic commands. Walking is one of my favorite activities. I like to make new friends, both human and dog, along the way. Belly rubs, cuddling, and being brushed are some of my favorite things. I’m a love bug that is looking for my furever home. Could I be the Pyr for you?

The best things in life are sweet like me, Cookie! My foster mama says I’m such a loving girl, and I simply want to be by your side. I’ll stick to you like icing on a cookie! If you work from home, I’ll enjoy lounging on a soft dog bed while you type away at the computer. I’m okay when you leave home too as long as I have another doggy buddy or lots of chew bone toys. Just like it’s hard to choose a favorite cookie, I don’t know what I like better: bellyrubs, playing in the yard, or going on walks. Foster Mom tells me I’m already housetrained because being in the backyard is the milk to my Cookie! I’ll even bark at the door to let you know it’s time to go out. My foster dog brother and I have a fun time romping around together in the grass as well. My foster family has also noted what a curious nature I have. The wide world is as colorful and exciting to me as all those shiny cookie sprinkles! When we go on a walk, I’m interested in everyone and every dog I meet. At first, I can be a little shy, but encouraged by my human, I warm up quicker than a freshly baked cookie! With a sugar sweet personality and soft, fluffy coat, who wouldn’t want to adopt this Cookie? Think about bringing me home today!

Joyous greetings from me, Jameela! I’m just jumping with joy to meet you. Foster Mama says I’m a jovial pup, so I know we’ll have a jolly time playing in the backyard. And, we’ll have lots of fun taking little jaunts around the neighborhood too! The jewel in my crown, though, is my sweetness. All I want to do is snuggle and snuggle some more! Foster Mom also tells me I’ve got the best disposition because I’m a social pyr girl. In fact, I’m at my most jubilant when I’m around people. Humans are the peanut butter to my jelly! To meet more people, we can jet to the coffee shop or the park as riding in the car is my jam. I’ll probably spend the ride with my head on your shoulder. My foster family thinks I’d do well with other dogs too as long as they’re not overly dominant. I’ve got a more submissive personality, so I need a doggy sibling who will understand and accept me. As with all puppies, I’ll need adopters who will continue my potty-training, leash-training, and basic command training through positive reinforcement, please. Us pyr pups really jive with behavior being rewarded via treats and praise! Lots of love and bonding time will be a great jumpstart to my life as well. If you’re ready for the jam-packed, joyride of raising a baby pyr, then consider adopting me today. I can’t wait to join your family and give you all my love!

Is there anything better than spending your summer nights by the bonfire and making smores? Well, there is one thing…spending time with a bundle of super cute puppies! In that first individual picture, you’ll see me, Toasty, and I promise I’ll keep you toasty warm with lots of pyr hugs. The second pic is of me, Cocoa. I’m the one with my tongue out because I want to go to my forever home so bad, I can almost taste it! Then, there’s me, Marshmallow, in the third photo with my pyr paw up for everyone to see. This piece of marshmallow fluff is ready to cuddle my way into your life! You can see in all our pictures that Foster Mama was trying to help us beat the summer heat with some water playtime. We’re curious pups, so we really explored the water! Foster Mom also tells us pyr girlies we’re as bouncy and playful as marshmallows. We’d have fun playing with kiddos or other dogs, for sure! If you spend some time with us puppers, you’ll see that we’re as soft and sweet as marshmallows too. We’ll snuggle close to you and make a smores sandwich! It takes time and effort to make the perfect Smores, and it takes time, effort, and a lot of love to raise a pyr pup too. We’ll need potty-training, leash-training, and basic command training which should only be done through positive reinforcement. Positive reinforcement means training us through praise and treats, please! Smores are the perfect way to celebrate summer, and Smores puppies are even better. Consider adopting one of us today!
