Hey there. I am Thibodeaux. Yeah, my previous owners named me after an Oregon Ducks player, so let’s keep it simple. You can call me Tibby.
I am still a young Pyr learning good manners and need patience, time, and ongoing training to become “Tibby the very best Great Pyrenees.”
Thanks to my Pyr-loving foster family, I am working on a few obedience issues and being taught how to “lay down” on command. Upon learning that I will receive treats if I listen to my foster mom’s command, I will put my paw on her hand to ensure that the treat is mine while also responding to the “lay down” command. I’m a good Tibby, right?
Here are a few other things my foster family has learned about me.
“Tibby is a cuddler, smart, sweet, a kisser, a nose bumper, a pleaser, loyal, and full of life and smiles.” (Aww… thank you! If you love me, I will smile at you all day long!)
“Tibby is a big love and loves to lean into his people. He loves hugs and will occasionally jump up gently to give hugs.” (I love my humans!)
“We will continue to work on desensitizing Tibby to whatever noises cause him to bark.” (Did you know it is immensely beneficial to Pyrs when their humans help us determine which noises do not need barking because all is okay and which noises are bark-worthy. So when my foster mom tells me, “enough bark,” I will just moan. She thinks I’m pretty funny!)
“Tibby is a GREAT guard dog and will definitely alert you to anything. (See, I know some things need my watchful eyes, ears, and barks!)
“Tibby is very active. He will run if you run, walk if you walk, and walk all day with you!” (Yes, I love being with my humans.)
“Tibby should not be crated as he hates crates.” (Yes, please never put me in a crate.)
So, that is a bit about me. My foster family cannot wait to tell you more about me, so come meet me soon!
Your smiley and still learning Pyr boy, Tibby

My GPRA name is Tex and I’m a 1-year-old, 88 lb. boy ready for a permanent collar tag. If you’re curious, I started life as a working dog, graduated to wandering, landed in a shelter, got adopted from, then returned to a shelter, and finally rescued by GPRA. Yep, all this change during the last 12 months is why I’m an interesting blend of perfect house dog and stray. I’m a dream on a leash, ignore cats, and am so grateful for bottomless bowls of clean water. I’m housetrained and my foster family is helping me unlearn counter surfing and trash diving. They’re also patiently working through my picky eating habits: “no thank you” to peanut butter and green beans; “yes, please” to chicken, cheese, and cat food. I know I’m not supposed to eat it, but it’s delicious! I don’t like baths or loud noises and I’m having a lot of fun with my canine sister. She’s been with this family for years and I appreciate her teaching me how to be a lovable, well-behaved Great Pyrenees. Want to see how much I’ve learned already?

Hi, I’m Pearl W. Woof! I just had to get that out. I am a smiley, happy girl about 1 year old and weighing 88 lbs. I am just so happy to be with GPRA to find one of those “fur-ever homes” that I’ve heard so much about. I came from a family that took pretty good care of me but I am big and the space was small, I mean, really small. I like other dogs, cats and kiddos and laps. Laps are nice. I got a little grumbly when there were my 5 other fur siblings trying to eat in a small space. I even got to work with a trainer. She was nice. She says that “She’s and absolute doll and everyone loves her.” That’s me! She’s talking about me! If you have a little more room for a girl to stretch her legs out and play, let’s talk!

Hey, Hey, Hey! I am Cann. Yep that is my name! I am 5 years old and was on my own for a while. That life sure was RUFF! I am 88 lbs. and could use some good meals to get me back to my best. My dream is to settle down and live the good life with a family that loves me. The rambling life can be hard on a guy so I dropped in to GPRA to have them help me find a real good home. I hear they are the best! I have met other dogs here but I do best if I am the only dog at home.I do like cats and bunnies. A fabulous foster family has taught me how to walk on a leash, enjoy car rides and how to be wonderful in the house. I’m ready to find my forever home! For more information about me, contact GPRA today at info@greatpyratlanta.com.

Hi all!  My name is Jessie.  I am a sweet and loving 6 year old gal who is able to get a new lease on life.  I was in a loving home for many years but things changed and they felt that I needed more attention than they could give me.  I found my way to GPRA and was placed into a great foster home.  I am getting showered with love and learning what it is like to be cherished and what a warm home feels likes.  The first couple of days I was nervous to come inside but I am slowly being acclimated into the house and learning what it like to have a furry sibling.  I will need someone who is patient to help me adjust to all these new changes.  I will be loyal and make a great companion and looking forward to being a part of a family again.  To learn more about me, contact GPRA today at info@greatpyratlanta.com
