Atticus in NY - Gives Nose Bumps for Pets!

Atticus has a stunning all-white, medium-length coat, and a heart as pure as his beautiful fur. This gentle giant was found as a stray in Nashville, TN and is seeking a forever home to call his own. Standing impressively tall, Atticus has mastered the art of the "lean-in" for pets and will win you over with his sweet nose bumps once he gets to know you. While initially aloof with strangers, this calm and affectionate boy transforms into a devoted companion who loves being near his people. With his medium to high activity level, Atticus doesn’t dig, is excellent on leash, housebroken, and knows how to "sit" on command (especially when freeze-dried liver treats are involved!). He's a well-behaved traveler who does great in vehicles and handled his vet transport like a champ (he was crated for the ride). This outdoor enthusiast prefers spending time in fresh air and would thrive with an active family who can provide plenty of outdoor adventures and a secure 6-foot fence. He’s a smart boy who learns very quickly! He enjoys the royal treatment at mealtime, preferring pets before diving into his food. Atticus gets along well with other dogs. This sweet boy would flourish in an active household with or without other dogs, or even in a quieter environment as long as he receives plenty of outdoor time and mental stimulation. Atticus is ready to shower his new family with the loyal, protective love that Great Pyrenees are famous for – he just needs someone to give him the chance to prove what a wonderful companion he can be.<br/><br/>NYS Registered Rescue # RR102<br/>NGPR dogs are in foster homes at the location specified on their full listing.
