Adopt a Great Pyrenees in New York

Great Pyrenees are massive, calm, and independent livestock guardian dogs with thick white coats. They appear in rescue when their size, shedding, and tendency to bark at night surprise pet owners. With acreage or a patient suburban home, a rescued Pyr is a serene, watchful companion.

New York has a dedicated rescue dog community, with major organizations in New York City and throughout the state. Many NYC-area rescues transport dogs from overcrowded Southern shelters, giving adopters access to a wide variety of breeds.
