My story

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Griff is the epitome of the term “gentle giant”! A soft-hearted guy, this sweet, shy boy is looking for a patient family to boost his confidence and help him blossom, just as his foster family has done! He enjoys leisurely walks and is happiest in quiet and calm environments where he can relax and feel secure. He is crate trained and leash trained and has the sweetest smile that will absolutely steal your heart! With his loving nature, Griff thrives on affection and enjoys hugs and kisses, making him the perfect cuddle companion. While he prefers the company of low-energy female dogs, he’s ready to shine in a home that appreciates his gentle spirit where he can spend his time loving his people, chilling with them inside, and also enjoying the sunshine outdoors. A 5’ fenced-in yard would be awesome, or he could be in a leash-walk only home. If you’re searching for a loyal friend who will bring warmth and love to your life, Griff is definitely a strong contender for best boy!  - Written by K.P. NGPR Pooch Profile Name: Griff in TN Age: 3 yrs 2 mos old as of June 2025 Color: White Dew Claws: Yes, Double Estimated Adult Weight: 85 lbs Current Location: NGPR approved foster in Palmyra, TN Medical: Neutered, dewormed, positive for heartworm and undergoing treatment, up-to-date on vaccinations and currently on flea, tick and heartworm preventative. This dog travels with a Interstate Health Certificate required by the USDA confirming that all the above criteria have been met. Housebroken: Yes Can be Placed With: Low-energy Large Female Dogs, Teenage Kids. Cats Unknown. Fencing: Secure VISIBLE fencing is required; invisible fencing WILL NOT contain this breed. Fees: Adoption fees are determined on a sliding scale depending on age, location and transport. Transport costs are included in the adoption fee. Fees for dogs adopted locally start at $400 and can range up to $700 for puppies under six months. Puppies placed on spay/neuter contracts receive $100 back when the dog is spayed or neutered. Fees for senior dogs (7 or older) and foster dogs will be adjusted accordingly. More Information: Questions? The fastest way to learn more about a dog is to fill out our Adoption Application. If you call or e-mail you are reducing your chances of adopting this animal as we direct our time and energy to first serving those who apply. NYS Registered Non-Profit Rescue # RR102. National Great Pyrenees Rescue (NGPR) has been rescuing and adopting out Great Pyrenees since 2006. Our relationship doesn’t end with adoption, as we continue to support adopters throughout the lifetime of their dog. Our goal is to assess every application on its own merits. Key considerations are: 1) the experience of the applicant with large breed dogs 2) children in the household or regularly visiting the household are ready for a large-breed dog who is a guardian by nature and 3) the sex of other dogs currently residing in the household to avoid same-sex aggression issues. For puppies under six months old, the applicant’s ability to socialize the puppy with older dogs is a priority. June 4, 2025, 12:50 pm
