About Dalton

Dalton is a striking, gentle giant with noticeable amber eyes and a long, soft coat—though currently he’s had a summer trim. This large mixed Great Pyrenees stays calm around other dogs and thrives on attention from people, showing an easygoing, affectionate side. Dalton is house trained, well-mannered indoors, and has a harmless habit of ferrying loose socks to his bed rather than destroying them. He's worked out his own routine: he enjoys cool outdoor weather, but once it gets hot, he’s happiest sprawled indoors with the air conditioning. Dalton gets along well with both dogs and cats, so multi-pet households are a good fit. He is not one for confinement; he makes it clear he isn’t a fan of being penned up. Born on Valentine’s Day, Dalton is technically an Aquarius—fitting for his gentle, slightly quirky spirit. Dalton is neutered and current on all his vaccinations, parasite preventatives, and heartworm meds. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
