Cherry's Story

You've probably seen more of my pups than you have of me. I'm Cherry and I gave birth to ten healthy and beautiful puppies on 2/2/22. I arrived at AGPR from a hoarding situation out near the Virginia mountains along with four other Pyrs. We weren't sure of the "family ties" but have had fun checking out DNA results as the others are adopted and tested. We currently believe the three of us girls are sisters and are waiting for learn more about the two males. I am the last adult waiting to be adopted to a loving home.<br/><br/>I have to tell you that when we arrived (January 20, 2022), no one at AGPR knew two of us were pregnant. But, SURPRISE, Shenandoah and I gave birth within a week of each other, Shenandoah started us off less than a week after arriving...boy, did the volunteers ever have their hands full! And they did a great job pampering us. I had a personal "hand maiden" every night to help me manage my ten little ones.<br/><br/>I'm currently enjoying my new BFF, Gandolph. He is a shy male who needs some confidence. The two of us spend the day together in a large outdoor exercise area and make sure any newcomers are welcomed with choruses of barks. He's very handsome and not at all dominant, so we get along just fine. I am a little picky about my male companions, so a meet and greet is necessary. Not a fan of sharing my future home with another female canine...perhaps it is the little bit of "diva" in me???<br/><br/>All Great Pyrenees require a fenced-in yard (at least four foot high). If you have questions about the breed or our adoption policies and procedures, please go to our website at www.agprescue.org. There's plenty of good information about the breed on our website - Pyrs aren't a breed for everyone!<br/><br/>Our adoption application is online: http://agprescue.org/adoption-application/agpr-application-donations/ Please note that we are a small regional rescue organization. We will consider adopting to families within a four to five hour drive to Richmond, VA

Appalachian Great Pyrenees Rescue's Adoption Policy
We believe that any prospective owner of a Great Pyrenees should be educated about the breed and we stand behind all of our placements for the life of the dog. If you adopt a dog through AGPR, you can expect us to be there if you have any questions about the breed, if you need help, if you’re having problems, or for any reason at all. If for any reason you can’t keep your adopted dog, you must return it to the rescue.  We expect all adoptive homes to an adequate physical fencing, to be able to care for a large breed of dog, to provide appropriate medical care, and to be committed to making the adoption of a rescue dog a success. Our adoption fees are $400 for adults and $450 for puppies (12 months and younger). All dogs have received medical care, are up to date on shots and are spayed/neutered and microchipped. Adoption fees go directly to our rescue fund to help pay for the health and vet treatment of previous and newly rescued Pyrs.
