About Pyra

Meet Pyra, a 5 to 6-year-old spayed female Great Pyrenees. After losing her owner, she ended up in the care of animal control. Pyra is completely housebroken and gets along well with both cats and dogs, making her a gentle companion. Potential adopters should understand that Great Pyrenees are known for their stubbornness and protective instincts. They can be vocal, and it's important to keep them leashed, as they won't respond well to boundary training. Make sure everyone in the household is on board with the decision to adopt, and that your family is prepared to welcome her home immediately. Adoptions are limited to the New England area, and applicants must be at least 21 years old. Each adoption is assessed on a case-by-case basis, factoring in breed experience and household dynamics. A virtual home visit will be conducted after initial approval. Pyra is ready for a loving home—could you be the one? Make sure to research and consider if Great Pyrenees is the right fit for your home. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
