Greetings, Pyr Pals! I’m Ruth, and my name means compassionate friend. That’s because I’m a sweet and friendly girl who is ready to come home with you! I would say my BFFs, my best friends forever, are my humans. They are just so nice to cuddle with! My foster mama says I’m a velcro dog which means I want to be where you are. Because I love my humans so much, I’m protective of them. One way I protect you is by being a barker to let everyone know I am here. When you leave, though, I am okay by myself at home, but I’d prefer my family to be home more often than not. Kids, which I know is people speak for little human, are some of my bestest friends too! I think my happy, go-lucky personality is what makes me such a good companion for kiddos. My other friends are dogs (both big and small), but cats are definitely more of acquaintances. While I don’t mind them, we don’t hang out. Friends have to be respectful, and I show my foster parents how respectful I am of their space by pottying outside. I’m completely house-trained, and I even know how to use the doggy door to get to the backyard. When you want to call me in for a walk, just say my name because I come when called! What’s the old saying about friends…All you have to do is call/And I’ll be there. On the leash, I do pull a bit and I’m a big pyr girl, but I respond very well to direction. Friends are good listeners! I know friends do fun things together, and walking is one of my favorite activities. Maybe, you can walk on over to your computer and apply to adopt me today. Then, I can give you all the love and companionship you could ever want! After all, what are friends for?

Good morning, pyr pals! I’m Sami Pucca. Foster Mom says that two words that would describe my best would be: sweet and sassy! I am one smart young pyr lady because I’m already house-trained. By pawing the back door, I let you know that it’s time for me to go outside. Pretty smart, right? I also already know the commands: sit, stay, and off. Foster Mama says I’m a superstar when it comes to training because I really listen to my humans. Right now, Foster Mom is teaching me how to be okay with loud cars. Big trucks and sirens are scary, so I lunge at them to say, “Go away!” But, my foster mom just tells me to not worry and talks me through it. During the quiet times of the day, though, I’m amazing on the leash! I listen to my humans so well because they are the stars to my moon; they’re everything to me once I get to know them. When foster mama is working at home, I’m sleeping right by her in the office. I think I’d like a family where my people are around more often than not. Another thing my foster mom is teaching me is how to be okay alone for a few hours. I get a little nervous at first, but once I see my foster pyr brother is calm, then I relax too. Having another confident dog around my size in the house will help me to feel safe and inspire my own confidence to grow. Plus, one of my super-duper qualities is that I’m playful, and another doggo would be a great companion for me! Foster Mom tells me that a home with yard is a must because this young pyr girl still gets zoomies. Please consider adopting me today because once I put my trust in you, I’ll never leave your side!

Hi, I’m Alaska Lilly, and my GPRA transporter thinks I fit my namesake just fine! Alaska means “The Great Land,” and I’ve been told I’m one great dog. Dogs are really important in Alaska; in fact, the state sport is dog mushing. I’ve never been on a dog sled team, but I’m very good on the leash. Those dogs have to run over a lot of snow and even avoid volcanoes because there are over 100 in Alaska. I’m not like a volcano at all, though, because I’m as sweet as baked Alaska! Dog sled teams must get so tired avoiding volcanoes and going over all that ice. They should just get places by riding in the car like me! My GPRA transporter says I’m an excellent car rider, and I jump right in. You don’t have to go to Alaska for a PYR who will lean on you and snuggle because I’m right here and ready to come home!
