About Jasmine

Jasmine is a large, young Great Pyrenees with a long white and cream coat. Found alone in the woods after a tough start—she lost a few toes from a trap and now sometimes limps. That injury could mean early arthritis down the road. Jasmine is now safe but remains in the shelter, so she needs an adopter who can patiently work on basic house manners, crate training, and leash skills. She hasn’t had the chance to socialize in a home yet, and her adopter should be ready to spend time helping her settle into domestic life. Jasmine requires a meet-and-greet with any resident dogs and will do best in a household with calm, respectful older kids. The rescue can also test her around cats if needed. Jasmine is a spayed female and up to date on vaccinations. She’s not yet house trained. Her adoption fee has been fully sponsored. Ready to give her a quiet space, some guidance, and the steady companionship she’s missed? Adoption counselors are looking for a thoughtful match, not the fastest application. Let Jasmine’s second act start with your care. Click apply and let the tail-wagging begin!
