Bernie Great Pyrenees & Hound Mix New York, NY

6m old Benny from Arkansas.
Meet Bernie! A STUNNING 6 month old medium to large mixed breed from Arkansas with the goofiest grin and the softest fur you have ever encountered. Bernie is eager to serve as both your couch-surfing and running partner. His personality is enthusiastic but gentle. He loves to play but exercises such caution when playing with even his tiniest friends. He would be a great family dog as he LOVES children of all sizes. He would also do well with a pup sibling as he ADORES play dates. With the right training, we think he has what it takes to be a therapy dog. He sits when asked. shows a desire to learn commands, and we’re very proud of how well he walks on leash. He has not yet been cat tested, so we are unsure as to how he would cohabitate with a feline friend though he is a gentle-natured boy for a puppy his size.

All dogs are located in NY/NJ area
All our puppies need puppy play dates/doggy facetime so we recommend homes with other pups or daily interactions to keep them tired out, happy and social.

Dogs are spayed/neutered, UTD on age appropriate vaccines, Rabies vaxed, and microchipped (not Lyme vaxed but we seriously recommend it!) All are in the NY/NJ area but we will adopt out of state to the purrfect home and in some cases, we can arrange transport. Please go to our site https://zanisfurryfriends.org fill out an application
Many of us (cats/dogs) will be on display on Saturdays or Sundays, weather dependent--please ask by writing us at dogs@zanisfurryfriends.org and following us on FB. If you are seriously interested in adopting one of us in particular, please fill out an application early Friday so that we can be sure to be there. Otherwise we decide based on other variables. Usually we are in our foster homes so this is a bit more stressful and a slightly artificial environment but we do want to be seen and find our furever homes too.

Please consider providing a home for more than one dog, especially if you are considering adopting a puppy. Dogs are pack animals and very much enjoy as well as need other dog company to learn to play, socialize and be good companion animals to people. The upside to this is that you won't feel as guilty leaving them alone and you get twice the love. Please come! And if you can't adopt, maybe you can foster or volunteer, and you can always donate!
