My Story

Hi! I’m Rusty and I’m thankful to be at GPRA! Despite my rough start in life, I am a friendly boy. I lean in for petting and take treats gently. Walking me on a leash is not difficult either. I used to live with a lot of other dogs, so I would be a good addition to a family with dogs, but that isn’t a must. I have been described as a calm and gentle soul. If you are looking for a sweet addition to your family, I could be your man.

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!

Hi-ya! I’m Tobias, and it’s terrific to meet you! My foster mama will tell you I’m a tenderhearted young pyr boy because I’m so cuddly and loving with my humans. I’ll show you how thoroughly I adore you by rolling over for belly rubs! I’m also very tactful when meeting new people. Once visitors come into my home, I like to welcome them with a tasteful pyr paw. Foster Mom says giving pyr paw is a talent of mine! Also, Foster Mama likes to compliment me on my top-notch leash skills. I am easy on the leash and thrilled to meet any doggy or human friends as we tread through the neighborhood. Because I’m teeming with that good, young pyr energy, I need to have another doggy friend in the home as my companion. If you have cats, I’m cool with them too.Home is my favorite place to be, so I’m very thoughtful of my human family and their house. One way I show respect for my abode is by pottying outside; I’m completely housetrained! I even know how to use the doggy door. Additionally, I can be left home alone for a few hours uncrated without being destructive. I truly love treats which makes me very trainable. Foster Mama can give testimony that I already know the commands: sit, stop, ok, off, and come. I’d be so touched if you considered adopting me today! I’m Tobias the Tail-Wagging Pup, and I can’t wait to come home with you!

Don’t you wish every day could be Taco Tuesday? Well, every day could be that great if you adopted me, Tuesday! I’m a very sweet, young pyr girl, and I’m looking for a home where I get to be with my people a lot. My foster mom says I want to be wherever you are every day of the week! Twosday, another way to spell Tuesday, would be a good name for me too because I do two things every day: give pyr paw and get belly rubs. Pyr paw is my special way to say, “More cuddles, please!” And, belly rubs are my foster family’s way of saying, “We love you!” I try to be respectful of the humans who do so much for me which is why I am mostly house-trained. As a puppy, I’m still learning, but I’m 99% of the way there. While humans are Tuesday-terrific, I seem to get along well with other dogs too. Cats are not my favorite, though, but I’m learning to tolerate them. Tuesday is still early in the week, and it’s still early days for me in my doggy training. Walking on a leash and basic commands are brand new to me, but I know with a lot of love and praise, I’ll make great progress. Don’t wait for Tuesday to pass you by! Consider adopting me today!

It’s a beautiful day to be a pyr mix! Hi, I’m Bella, and I’m charmed to meet you! I think you probably know that my name means beautiful. And, my golden and cream coat is quite stunning! Looks aside, I’m a young pyr girl looking for my forever home where I will get lots of attention. One of my most attractive qualities is that I am housetrained! That means I use the outdoors as my potty area like a true lady. And, after I do my business, I can sit pretty as a picture in the green grass! When the deer walk by my yard,  I don’t even react. To me, they’re just a part of the delightful landscape. I actually get along really well with other animals too. Other dogs are always easy on the eyes, so I consider all my canine brethren to be my friends. Kitty-cats are delightful too! While my fellow fuzzy creatures are as pretty as peaches, I just adore my human family. They’re irresistible! I love to hang out with people, and I’m good with kids too. Beauty is in the eye on the beholder, and when I look at you, I see the most beautiful thing a dog could hope for: a loving family ready to adopt me!

Hi, Everybody! I’m Joe Cruz! This Joe goes with the flow. I’m such a sweet boy. I’m good with kids, people, and other dogs. At the dog park, I like to sniff the other dogs and be friendly. As Foster Mama says, I don’t have a mean bone in my body! When I’m at home, I love to play with my doggy sibling. All I really want to do, though, is be where you are. While you’re having your morning cup of joe, I’ll sit by you for some pets and snuggles. Foster Mom also says I’m very calm. My gentle demeanor means I am great with kids! My young foster human sibling is brushing me in one of the pictures, and I just let her get on with it. Being groomed is something I tolerate very well. Another thing I like to do is chew, so I’ll need some sturdy chew toys! On the leash, I’m a little like a joey, a baby kangaroo, learning how to walk because I weave and pull. Foster Mama tells me I’m a fast learner, though, so I’ll be cruzing, I mean cruising, smoothly down the sidewalk in no time! Also, car rides and stairs are not my vibe, but I’m working on it. One thing I can’t learn to love is the crate. I think it’s because I love my people so much that I want to be able to guard the family home while they’re out. As every Joe Schmoe knows, pyrs like to protect their home! The good news is I’m basically housetrained! Here’s the deal: I’m no average Joe. I’m Joe Cruz, and I’m a very special and soft-hearted pyr who can’t wait to go home with you!

Hello, my pyr mates! I’m Max Millin, and I’m mighty pleased to meet you! I take being a good boy to the max because I’m housetrained AND I come when called. To say, “Potty-time!”, I stand by the back door. When you need me, I give you my maximum attention. If you say, “Max, sit,” I do it! I also know the commands: come, off, and down. I do need a six-foot fence, though, because I can jump a shorter one. Sometimes, I dig under the fence too, but we can work on that behavior together. I have other maximal qualities as well. Foster Mama is mega happy to report that I ride well in the car and walk well on the leash. Those are major because anywhere we go, I’ll be the most behaved doggo! I’ve even seen some kitty-cat mates, and I find them interesting in a friendly way. I also get along great with other dogs. Once I get to know my doggy friends, I like to lay by them and play in the backyard. Foster Mom has been telling my GPRA peeps that I’m such a sweet pyr in a myriad of ways. Let’s meet and see if we have a magnetic connection!

Hi, my name’s Luca Atlas, and I’m paws-itively pleased to meet you! My GPRA transporter says I’m very sweet. I guess that I live up to my name which means “bringer of light.” Let me brighten your day with all my hugs and love that I like to give. I’m a very affectionate pyr! My transporter says, I even tried to sit in his lap on our car ride, but when he told me, “no,” I listened very well. I’m a brilliant listener! I am just gleaming with good manners because I was a calm car rider too. I didn’t bark or react to anything as we drove along. I also got a glowing walking report. Mr. Transporter said that I walked well on the leash even though I wasn’t really sure what a leash was. Going to the play yard is always a bright spot in my day, and I, sometimes, try to jump up on the fence because I’m so excited to be in the sparkling autumn sun. My GPRA friends say I’ll need a 6 ft fenced-in backyard to make sure I stay safe. Something that would definitely put a sparkle in my eye is a playmate because I love to play! Another glittering aspect of my personality is that I love to be groomed! My GPRA walker friends groomed me for about an hour, and I just patiently sat while they made my coat nice and glossy. I radiate so much charm and good cheer that I know I will be a spot of sunshine for any family who adopts me. Could it be you?

Hey, y’all! I’m Maize May, and I’m just tickled to meet you! I’ve been told my fur is as fluffy as a biscuit. I do love affection, so you can come on over and see for yourself. I’m soft on the inside and out! Once I get to know, I’m as sweet as sweet tea, and in the South, that’s sweet. The only thing that makes tea better is having it on the front porch, and if you have a bench swing, so much the better, because I’ll want to cuddle up in your lap. Don’t you worry, darling! I won’t break the bench because I’m a pocket pyr which means I’m a dainty little lady. Speaking of southern charm, my stroll has been described as a prance. Not only that, but like any proper country girl, I have leash manners. Up until now, my stompin’ grounds have been the good ole outdoors, but the indoors is a hoot! I love it so much that when my foster mama hollers for me, I come in right away. If you’re looking for a pyr with a heart as tender as cornbread, then I reckon you should take me on home!

Hi, I’m Annabelle, and I’m so pleased to meet you! I think I was named after the butterfly whose scientific name is vanessa annabella because we are both big and beautiful! The Annabella butterfly has only a few spots of white, but I’m white and fluffy all over. Annabella butterflies also like to sunbathe, and I like to walk around in the sun too. My GPRA walkers say I’m excellent on the leash! Walking is easy, but Annabella butterflies trek to the Rocky Mountains twice a year. I’ve made a few journeys in my life, and I’m still getting used to the car! After a pleasant walk around the flowers, I’m ready for all the pets and cuddles you can give me. I’ve heard butterflies flap their wings five times per second, and if you want to pet me five times per second, I’d be one happy pyr! Another thing that makes me happy is other dogs. Butterflies can fly as fast as 30 mph and that’s how fast I run to my fellow doggy friends! I love them! I love humans too, but I take a bit to warm up. Once I do, though, I’m as sweet as the flower nectar those Annabella butterflies love to eat! If you’re looking for a gentle and loving pyr, then I’m your girl!
