My Story

Hey there, I’m Blanco, and I’m currently in boarding while I wait for something really special… my very own foster or forever home!

I’m a handsome pup with a big heart, and I’ve got lots of love to give. I’m told I’m quite the gentleman on a leash (yep, I walk nicely!) and I don’t get spooked by cars or loud noises — city life? No problem!

I may bark a bit when I see other dogs through the kennel, but hey, it’s a loud place and I’ve got opinions! Out in the parking lot, I’m more of a curious onlooker — I just gaze and take it all in. I get along well with people, whether it’s new friends or the kind clinic staff. I soak up attention like a sponge, and I love when someone takes a moment just for me.

Here’s a quirky fact about me: I like to “hockey puck” my food and water dishes around! It’s part of my charm, but I could really use some heavy-duty bowls in my next home. Also, I’ve got some food preferences — I eat best when my food is on the floor (hey, who made up the bowl rule anyway?).

The good news? I’m housebroken, not food aggressive, and love getting petted. I haven’t had to take any meds yet, but I’m a chill guy and easy to handle, so I think I’d do just fine.

If you’re looking for a sweet, curious, slightly goofy dog with lots of potential and a big heart, I could be your guy. I’d love a soft bed, some humans to love, and maybe a yard where I can explore a bit (and practice my bowl-sliding skills).

Are you the one I’ve been waiting for? Come meet me — let’s see if we’re a match!

Love,
Blanco 🐶💙

My Story

Hi Pyr Friends! I’m here to reintroduce myself to you. I’m so happy to have a foster home and not be in a kennel anymore! GPRA now has a much better idea of what a fabulous companion I can be. My foster mom says that I like to be wherever humans are. If you go outside, I’m happy to go with you. If you come inside, I want to come and lay on the floor beside you. My favorite activities are going for walks or going on a car rides. When walking, I don’t react to other dogs or critters. I mostly like to just smell all the smells. I’m easy to walk, but I’m not much for running. I might bark at trucks, but I don’t lunge toward them. The only noises that really bother me are sirens, but no one likes those, right? My foster says that I’m really smart and I know commands such as “sit”, “down” and “stay”. I’m food motivated, so I’m learning to take treats softly from humans. I do not counter surf or try to get on the furniture. Chewing isn’t really my thing either. I might enjoy a filled bone, but stuffed toys aren’t interesting to me.

I’m easy to groom. I like to be petted, so brushing is not problem. Cutting my toenails is pretty easy too. One funny thing I do with my foster mom is that I like to be towel dried. When I’m wrapped in a towel, I get affectionate and silly.  Foster mom says that I would be good as an only dog, or with another dog. Either is fine with me. I am just really ready for my own family! Please consider adding me to yours by applying to adopt at GPRA.
