Ivy in OH - Gentle & Sweet 'Pocket Pyr'!

My story

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.*** Check Out My Video Album Below! *** Meet Ivy, a gentle adult "Pocket Pyr" with the softest, most luxurious coat you've ever felt! This sweet lady is currently in boarding and seeking her furever home, or a loving foster family. Ivy is the epitome of a perfect companion dog – she's housebroken, crate trained, mostly leash trained, doesn’t dig, and knows basic commands like "sit" and recall (though she might take her time deciding if she wants to come when called). Her activity level is low, making her an ideal match for someone seeking a calm, loving presence in their home. What makes Ivy truly special is her incredibly gentle and loving nature. She's remarkably quiet for a Great Pyrenees, only barking at other dogs, but otherwise maintaining her lady-like composure. This indoor-loving girl prefers to spend her time close to her human, and don't be surprised if she wants to share your bed – snuggling with her person is one of her greatest joys! Ivy is also wonderfully easy to care for, enjoying spa days and brushing sessions without any fuss. She's excellent with meeting new people and shows her sweet personality right away. Her perfect home would be with a senior or adult who appreciates a calm, devoted companion who simply wants to be loved. With a 4-foot fence requirement and her preference for indoor living, Ivy would thrive in a peaceful home where she can be the center of attention and share quiet, loving moments with her favorite humans.

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. September 4, 2025, 11:35 am
