My story

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.*** Check Out Our Video Album Below! *** These two big, floofy cuties are Apollo and Dakota, and they are joined at the hips! Apollo (male) and Dakota (female) came into rescue together as a bonded pair, and where one goes, the other one will follow close behind - it is too adorable for words. Both Apollo and Dakota get along well with their four-legged foster siblings, and they adore their two-legged furless friends. In fact, they watch over kids as if they were their own, and the little ones naturally gravitate towards these gentle giants. Apollo and Dakota are both easy-going and have low-to-medium energy levels. They love hanging out in the backyard (a 6-foot fence would suit their needs), going on walks, and tagging along for car rides (bonus points if there are pup cups involved!). When not out and about, both of them love nothing more than to be petted and loved upon by their people. They walk well on leash and know some basic commands. They are also a couple of foodies, being very food-motivated and loving treats of any kind! While hanging out together is their norm, they dine separately, as Apollo tends to be protective of his kibble. These two sweet love bugs are such happy-go-lucky pups that we are pawsitive they will thrive in a home where they will be showered with love and attention. What's better than one gentle giant, you ask? Well, TWO of course! What say you, are you ready to open your home and your heart to Apollo and Dakota?

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 12, 2025, 1:33 pm
