Aloha! Charmingly named after a lively Disney character, my name is Lilo. Did you know that the Lilo means “generous one?” Yes, I have a generous Pyr-heart!
I am wishing for an exceptional and loving home and owner. You see, I am almost deaf. Do not worry about me, though, because I am a very independent Pyr. Here is what GPRA knows about me.
“Lilo will do best in a home where she can bond with her humans. Owners who work from home or are retired will be a great fit for her. She will be a wonderful emotional support dog, too.” (I will be your constant and faithful companion.)
“Lilo will play with other dogs but prefers to be on her own after playtime is over. If there is another dog in her home, an older and/or laid back dog will be her preference.” (What can I say, this girl likes quiet time, too, which is prime time for cuddles.)
Your Pyrly loving girl, Lilo
Sorry for the blurry picture, more pictures coming soon.

Daisy Darling is my name, and you will not find a sweeter, gentler giant than me.

What’s a low-energy girl to do when all she has known is to be home alone for long hours? Yep, sleep! Therefore, very mellow me will benefit from many short walks to get me stronger and help me drop a few pounds.
Here are other things that my foster family knows about me.
“Daisy Darling is a lovely girl and is great with people and other dogs.”

“Daisy Darling has terrific leash manners. She meanders along but loves to go on walks.”

“Daisy Darling is house-trained. One night she woke me up to let me know she had to go outside. She is such a good girl.” (I try to be a good girl. Thank you for getting up and taking me outside.)

“My younger dog jumped on Daisy Darling when she was sleeping, and it startled Daisy. Daisy let my dog know that she was not happy with that behavior by barking at her. Very young children need to know to leave her alone while she is sleeping.” (I am a gentle giant and like naps without interruption or someone or something jumping on me. You understand, right?)

“We call Daisy a turn-key Pyr because she is pyr-fect. She has excellent manners, takes treats gently, is house-trained, and loves almost everyone and everything (except cats).”

“Daisy adores children. She loves going to the bus stop where all of the children fawn over her.” (The best hours of the day are bus drop-off and pickup. Can I go to school with the younger humans?)

“Daisy will do very well with future owners who have a low-key lifestyle – possibly a retired couple. And, if grandkids come to visit, she will soak up the attention.”

“Daisy Darling has perfected the Pyr paw and will Pyr paw you for more pets.” (My human sister pets me a lot, and I cannot get enough of her love and affection.)

“Daisy Darling is the easiest foster that I have ever had. She is also the sweetest!” (Aww, thank you!)

Your Pyrly darling girl, Daisy Darling

Happy day wishes to everyone! I’m Sasha!

Hard to believe a beautiful, fun, and full-of-life Pyr needs a do-over already, right? Well, I do! With Pyrs like me, our learning curve can be a bit steeper. Just keep in mind that I am still a youngster that needs consistent guidance to continue learning good leash and house manners. My progress to date has included learning commands such as heel, sit, come, down, crate-up and place.

Belly rubs are one of my favorite things. I’m also house-trained, which is top on your list, right?

For whatever reason, I really gravitate toward trusting male humans. So, if you are one of them and single, I am your girl.

GPRA recommends a knowledgeable Pyr owner in a one-adult home and a fenced-in backyard for me. They also think it will be best if I’m the only dog of the house. With time, patience and consistency, I will get better at not needing to resource-guard my favorite humans. If you are willing to give me a chance, I will continue working hard to be my best Pyr-self.

Your still learning and Pyr-fun girl, Sasha

Hellos, I am Ruby Timber, Yes, I look a little different than all the other Pyrs with GPRA, but this makes me extra special. I am part Great Pyrenees and German Shepherd. This means that if my mom and dad were purebreds, I am a Germanees. GPRA cannot confirm purebreds, but I do look a lot like other Germanese.
Did you know that Germanese are agile in their movements, kind, independent, and joyous to own?
Here is what my foster family knows about me.
“Ruby is outgoing, curious, smart, such a lover, and a playful girl.”  (Aww… thank you.)
“Ruby is athletic, loves to play with toys and balls, and has lots of puppy energy as she is only five months old. “ (Do you have a backyard so that we can play together?)
“We are working with Ruby on leash manners. Although she still pulls, Ruby is smart and is learning quickly.” (I am so thankful to my foster family, who is investing lots of time in getting me ready for adoption. )
“Ruby knows the “sit” command and is almost there with the “come” and “off” commands. We are also teaching her “down” and “stay.”
“Although we have not had visitors, Ruby will be fine as she loves everything and everyone.” (Yep, I am a lovey girl!)
“Ruby saw her reflection in the window and thinking it was another dog, her tail went up, and she barked at herself.  She is too cute.” (What’s a reflection? I know I saw another dog in the house but cannot find it.)
Ready for a fun-filled life with my very own fur-ever family.
Your Pyr-fun girl, Ruby Timber

Hi there! I am Bella White! Do you like my cute smile? Even though I had to say goodbye to my previous owner due to an illness, which was quite sad, GPRA tells me that a new life awaits and I can smile again.
Here is what my foster mom knows about me.
“Bella White is a sweetheart! She seems to have been quite sheltered and lacks exposure to everyday things. However, she is gaining confidence each day. Bella White will benefit from a patient, loving and understanding owner who will continue to introduce her to normal routines.”
“Bella White loves to be close to her humans, and she is a natural snuggler. She must have snuggled a lot with her previous owner.” (I have perfected quiet snuggle time.)
“When Bella White gets excited, you see her adorable toothy smile, and she will trot around wagging her tail in a circle. Bella White is a fun, lovey girl.”
“She can be a bit nervous on the leash due to lack of exposure and tries to bolt when startled. Bella White will need a patient owner who will continue to build her confidence.” (If you need a walking buddy, I’m your girl because GPRA’s vet recommends that I drop a few pounds. Did you notice my little pot belly? However, if you want to sneak me a few treats every once in a while, I promise not to tell anyone. Also, if I see a deer on walks, I can get a bit excited, so be prepared to work on my leash manners. Yes, this is my work in progress.)
“Bella White is house-trained and will go to the door when she needs to go outside.” (I’m a good girl!)
“Bella White will be an excellent companion to a retired owner or couple who do not have younger children or hyper young dogs.” (Previously, I lived a tranquil and calm life. It will take me time to get used to a busier home. No worries, I will figure things out.)
“Bella White’s favorite things are snuggles, chicken, a cozy place to hide when she gets scared, and a comfy bed.” (Don’t forget that I love to snuggle on the couch. Will you be my couch buddy?)
Pyrly yours, Bella White

Hello, hello! My name is Cardi!
Yep, I am another pup with the Stryker family. Our mom is a Great Pyrenees, and Dad is an Anatolian Shepherd. So, I am an Anatolian Pyrenees (all white). Can you believe that someone surrendered my littermates and me to a shelter?

Do you like my sweet smile? Then, if you pick me, my darling personality and smile will greet you every day!
Here’s what my foster parents told GPRA about precious me!

“Cardi has single dewclaws. She is fluffier than Ana and has longer ears. She’s a little more independent than her sister but is still very friendly. She loves playtime with humans and her sister.” (I am pretty cute if I do say so myself)

“Cardi is the more mischievous and outgoing of the two. She usually instigates the wrestling with her sister. She tries to get our other dogs to play with her also, but they ignore her.” (I love to play with my sister! I want to include the bigger dogs in my fun as well, but I think they rather watch us from a distance.)

“Overall, Cardi and Ana are the sweetest puppies we have ever fostered. They have been pretty easy-going, too. We are working on “sit,” and they are catching on pretty quickly.” (I am quick to learn and quicker to love!)

Your Pyr-darling, Cardi ❤
