About Daisy

Meet Daisy, a lovable six-and-a-half-year-old Anatolian Shepherd and Great Pyrenees mix currently in Amherst, MA. With her striking tan coat and beautiful dark face, she is impossible to forget. Weighing in at around 96 pounds, Daisy is a gentle giant who spreads love wherever she goes. Her sweet personality naturally attracts friends, be it humans or animals. Daisy shines in social settings, whether she’s out on leisurely nature walks or enjoying cuddle sessions with her favorite people. Although she boasts working breed lineage, Daisy prefers the comforts of home to open fields. She enjoys her daily walks, loves to sniff around, and cherishes quality time with family—the closer, the better! Daisy is house-trained and knows a variety of commands, including sit, stay, shake, hug, and eyes. She is fantastic with kids and does well with both dogs and cats. While she does have some separation anxiety and requires daily Trazodone to stay calm, she thrives best in a home where she has company most of the day, especially if another friendly dog is present. Daisy is vaccinated, microchipped, and needs a special diet free from poultry, beef, and rice; she does well on salmon-based, grain-free food. She’s also spayed and ready for her next adventure. This affectionate girl seeks connection, gentle reassurance, and plenty of hugs. If you’re ready to welcome a loving companion into your life, Daisy could be the perfect match for you!
