Sofie is a three-year-old Great Pyrenees in Croydon, NH, with a mellow, gentle nature. She tends to be shy at first, but with some patience, she will quietly attach and become a deeply loyal companion. Sofie is adjusting to life alongside other foster dogs and is gradually feeling more comfortable around them. She’s best suited to a calm home environment with someone ready to offer reassurance and steady companionship. Sofie is house trained and up to date on vaccines, and she has been spayed. Because Great Pyrenees are independent and can be stubborn or territorial, having experience with the breed and a secure, fenced yard is important—these dogs are instinctive guardians and aren’t reliable off leash. Proof of obedience training will also be needed after adoption. Homes with same-sex dogs may not be the best fit for Sofie, as pyrs often do better with opposite-sex companions. Sofie gets along with both dogs and cats. She’s looking for adopters at least 21 years old who have thought through the responsibilities of a large guarding breed. If you fit the bill and want a devoted, loving dog, Sofie is likely to become part shadow, part best friend. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
