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

Hi, I’m Bailey! All the humans at GPRA say that I’m a gentle, loving puppy who has a fun personality. I adore everyone I meet. I enjoy playing with other dogs, soft squeaky toys and chewing on bones. I am house trained and sleep well in my crate over night. My foster parent’s grandchildren came over to play and it was a fabulous time for all of us! I get along well with the other dogs at my foster’s house too.  I do pretty well with walks  on a leash, but being such a young boy, I will need some guidance. My favorite things are  to be petted and to snuggle. If you are looking for a playful, kind puppy to join your family, I could be your perfect match.

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 Oreo is world-famous, and this Oreo should be too because of how sweet and handsome I am! Just take a look at my cookies and cream coat. I’m also kind of like a mega-stuffed oreo due to my size, but my extra-largeness allows me to give mega hugs. Since I’m a big, strong boy, I can be a bit of a puller on the leash. With some consistent positive reinforcement training, my leash skills will become golden as a golden oreo! The best part of pyr-sonality is how friendly I am. It’s double-stuffed with a kindness for other fuzzy creatures and people! I seem to get along well with the other dogs and cats that I meet. Oreo is said to be milk’s favorite cookie, and I hope I can be your favorite pup because I love people! At first, I’m a tiny bit shy, but I warm up quickly. Then, I’ll want a big Oreo sandwich hug! Giving hugs is really fun, but I’m learning the command “sit” too. My loving nature means I like lots of attention, and it will be good for both of us if you continue to teach me basic commands through treats and praise. I’ll be getting the attention I want, and you’ll be raising a good boy! One skill I’ve already learned is how to be on a potty schedule. With a going-outside routine, I’m basically housetrained! While Oreo cookies are good in almost every dessert, the best place for Oreo the dog (that’s me) will be in my forever home with lots of love.

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!

Backstreet’s back, alright, except this boy band is made out of pyr puppies! We don’t sing and dance (unless you count puppy jumps and giving pyr paw), but we tried to give our best performance for our photoshoot. Each of us pyr pups has two pictures! Hi, I’m Brian with the orange collar in one pic and laying in the grass in another. Hello, my name is Nick! I’m the one with the leash giving my best pyr stare in one photo and my best pyr smile in another. Meet me, Kevin! I’m all ears and jowls and 100% adorable. Pyr buds Howie and Aj, here! We took our pictures together just for fun because fun is our middle name. Our foster mamas say we all have very loving natures, and our sweetness makes us good companions with other dogs. The foster families have also been telling us that we’re close to being potty-trained. We’re smart boys! Of course, boy bands don’t become stars overnight. We will have to work at becoming our best selves, and we’ll need your help with basic command training and leash-training through positive reinforcement, please. The best way to a boy band’s heart is adoring fans, and positive reinforcement is kind of similar because it means doing training through praise and treats. Like the Backstreet Boys said, “As long as you love me” and train me and bond with me, we’ll all grow into the best pyr boys! And, our love for you will be “larger than life!”

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!
