My Story

Maya Clay recently came to GPRA from a shelter in Georgia. While her past is uncertain, her delightful personality quickly won the hearts of the shelter workers, and, more recently, her foster family. She is eager to please and is working on basic commands. Walking is one of her favorite activities. Maya likes to make new friends, both human and dog, along the way. Maya loves belly rubs, cuddling, and being brushed. She’s a love bug that is looking for her furever home. Could Maya 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!

Hi-ya! I’m Harper, and I’m happy to meet you! This summer, I became a mama, and you can see how I put the health and happiness of my pups first in my sweet pictures. Now that my puppies are almost ready to go off on their own adventures, I’m hankering for my forever home! As a happy-go-lucky young pyr, I’m playful and have good energy, so hanging out in the yard or hiking around the neighborhood will be hands-down a great time for me. Because I get along harmoniously with other dogs, it would be a heck of a lot of fun to have another doggo in my new family. We would be best buds! My foster mama says I especially enjoy walking with a doggy companion. Walking me on leash should be a heavenly experience due to my excellent leash manners. Foster Mom compliments me on not being on a puller, and I like to hail everyone we meet because I’m a super friendly dog! As a recent mama dog, I understand how your house is your haven, and I help to keep your habitat clean by being housetrained. Hasten on over to the “Apply to Adopt” button and consider adopting me today. I can hardly wait to come home with you!

Hi, All! I’m June, and I’ve got a personality as warm as my summer month namesake! Cuddling with my foster mom really brightens my day. I’m a bit bashful at first, but once I get to know you, I’ll show you my sunny disposition and let you give me all the pets. Because I take time to warm up and sudden movements can scare me a bit, I think I’d prefer a home with older kids or just adults. My foster family tells me that my shining smile is proof of how happy and friendly I am after we’ve gotten to know each other. Feeling loved and safe means everything to me, and I’ll show you my gratitude by being a good listener. My foster mom has already taught me “sit” and “shake,” and we’re working on the commands: down, stay, and come. I do have some separation anxiety when left home alone, but as long as I have my doggy buddy and my own secure space, I calm down after about twenty minutes. My amiable attitude means I get along great with other dogs too. Right now, I live with another male pyr, and we have the best time romping around like two little rays of sunshine! When we’re in the backyard for playtime, I’ll need a six-foot fence to keep me safe because I can get over a shorter one. If I’m not wrestling with my pyr brother, I have a great time playing with tennis balls. June is the start of summer fun, and I can’t think of a better way to begin this sunlit season than you taking me home!

April showers bring May flowers, and one of those Spring flowers has already bloomed. It’s me, Misty Gigi! You can see my gorgeous pyr-ents, Moose and Shadow Gigi, who are available for adoption as well. My eyes are the blue of a misty morning, and I’ve been told eye color doesn’t set in until three to four months of age. You might even get misty-eyed over how adorable I am! One of my most marvelous qualities is how much I love people. Getting pets and snuggling close are two of my favorite ways to spend a rainy afternoon! And, of course, as a pyr puppy, a little mist won’t stop me from being playful. Romping around in a yard is a must-have on my daily schedule! One day, I’ll grow into a mesmerizing pyr lady, but don’t get lost in the mists of time yet because I’ve still got a lot of growing to do. Amidst all the hugs and zoomies, I’ll also need to do some training. Us baby pyrs need continued potty training, leash training, and basic command training all through positive reinforcement. Positive reinforcement means using only treats and praise to help me learn all these important life skills. I’ll tell you what I can see clearly through the mist. It’s my new family adopting me! Could it be you?

Anna Peach, here, and my GPRA friends say I’m as pretty as a peach because of how soft and fuzzy I am! At my age, I’m still a young peach who is ripe with some good energy but also that charming pyr calm. Another reason I’m peachy keen is because I’m totally housetrained, so your house will stay as pretty as a peach too. When this peach has to potty, I can use the dog door or stand by the door to let you know it’s time to go out. If you have to leave home, you can leave me free to roam the house because I am very well-behaved. While I’m a little shy at first, I warm up nicely like a plate of peach cobbler as soon as I get to know you. For me, people and kids are the cream to my peaches; we just go well together like peaches and cream! My foster family like to compliment me on my sweet as peach pie personality as well. I love to sit by your side and get lots of pets! Brushing is peachilious too because it’s kind of like getting pets while getting groomed. You’ll also be saying I’m a peach because I already know “sit” and “down,” and then we can get to the snuggling. My foster mom says I love to lay my head in your lap. It’s my way of saying I’m the peach of your eye. One skill I’m working on is leash-walking. Right now, I’m a little like a peach tree in a breeze as I pull and dart a bit, especially around loud cards, but I know with some practice and love, I’ll be walking just peachy on the leash in no time! Foster Mama is currently teaching me “heel” to help me along. Just like peaches grow together on trees, I have been having fun with my foster dog siblings, so I would do well at a home with other dogs. We all know the best part of Georgia’s springs and summers is peaches, so consider adopting this Peach today!

Bonnie Bean bouncing in to tell you that I’m ready to go to my pyr-fect home! I’m a young pyr lady who still has some jumping bean energy but is calm and sweet too. Bonnie means good and beautiful, and the name fits! One thing I’m great at is potty-training which means I’ll keep your house looking bonny. Another beatific skill of mine is that I walk well on the leash. We’ll have the best time strolling about the neighborhood! Whenever I see other dogs out and about, I let my gorgeous personality shine because meeting new doggy friends makes me happy. Probably my most lovely quality is how much I love people! To me getting attention and pets is better than any doggy-friendly bon-bons I could ever have. Because I’m also smart, I know “sit,” so you can ask me to sit by your side for some snuggles. Think about adopting me today, and I’ll be your bonniest pyr girl!
