They can go separately. Nova is the priority in getting a new family.<br/><br/>Location: South River <br/><br/>Nova: 3-years-old<br/>Rosie: 2-years-old<br/><br/>Children: 12 years and up<br/><br/>MOM & DAUGHTER NEED A NEW COUNTRY HOME<br/><br/>It is with a heavy heart (and a lot of procrastination) that I put my beautiful dogs up on the Great Pyrenees Rescue site. However, my situation is changing and I need to rehouse my Great Pyrenees (Nova, 3) and her daughter (Rosie, 2) who is a mix with a Staffordshire Terrier (my neighbour’s dog, it was an unplanned teenage pregnancy). I would love to keep them together if possible but would be open to an adoption just for Nova if I find a good situation for her and taking both dogs is difficult for her new family.<br/><br/>About my situation: I’ve been living on a 10 acre farmstead near South River which is an hour north of Huntsville. However, my place is on the market and I am in that sandwich generation with one child that is struggling and needs a lot of parenting and aging parents that need my help. So I will be moving back in with my parents in Toronto to help them out for an indefinite period and my girls are not city dogs, and I won’t have the bandwidth to care for them as well, so I’m looking for a new country home for them. <br/><br/>About my gals: They are both extremely loyal, loving, dogs with a strong bond to each other. Nova has all the instincts of a Great Pyrenees, every morning she needs to run the perimeter of my property to make sure things are okay and all is as it should be, and Rosie eagerly tags along. They both love to be outside and will happily spend all day sitting in the rain, snow and sunshine. They are both very loving and will ask for love in return by way of pats and holding hands, but will go and lie down if you ignore them and just need to get on with your day. They are both through the puppy phases of chewing things they shouldn’t and other stuff like that. I have been a bit slack about training them, so their recall is not the best, but they are both smart, trainable dogs. Because I live alone in the country they haven’t had a ton of socializing with other dogs, or people, but they are both very social and welcoming to guests when given the opportunity. I have however seen them get their backs up when there is another alpha dog on their property, and a couple of times I have seen both of them have a nervous reaction to young children (around the ages of 5-8) which is why I think they are probably best suited to a farm with adults and older kids where they'll have a lot of freedom and autonomy. Rosie is spayed but Nova will be spayed shortly.<br/><br/>My dream for them: I’m going to put my dream scenario because if I manifest it, maybe it will happen. I would love to place them both on a large farm in the Collingwood area as I hope to settle there eventually. Once I’m settled again, I would love to be the first on call for dog sitting when needed, kind of like a pseudo doggie grandma. Maybe at some point down the road if circumstances allow for it after I am resettled (and both parties are in agreement) I would reclaim Rosie. But for now my dream would be to keep both girls together, and I would love to have them both settled into a new home by July. <br/><br/>Pyr Rescue recommend the online teaching program Recallers at https://recallers.com or Home School the Dog at https://dogsthat.com/home-school/ target=“_blank and/or the Trust Technique https://trust-technique.com to gain an incredible connection with your dog to set them up for success.<br/><br/>Adoption Contribution: $400 for each<br/><br/>The adoption will be directly between you and the owner.<br/><br/>If you have further questions, please reach out to me. My email is saramoore@rogers.com<br/><br/>If any of this resonates with you and you think either or both of these girls would be a good addition to your family, please fill out our adoption form at https://www.great-pyrenees-club-of-southern-ontario.com/Dog-Adoption-Form.html

Great Pyrenees Rescue of Southern Ontario's Adoption Policy
How We Prepare Great Pyrenees Rescue Dogs For Adoption All of our Great Pyrenees rescue dogs have been fully examined and treated for any illness, sores, etc. before they are made available for adoption. They are implanted with identity microchips. In addition, if necessary each dog is spayed or neutered before placement. All that remains to be done is to find a loving and caring home to share their love, and that is where you, the potential adopting family, can be the final ingredient. It is up to the adopter to sign on for a positive-reinforcement training program. We highly recommend Recallers to create a strong connection between them and their dog. We are a small rescue. We do our best to ensure our dogs go into the best suited homes. It all begins by completing our Great Pyrenees Adoption Form.

Our Mission
Unfortunately, not all relationships between Great Pyrs and their human companions work out in a way that we would like. Sometimes circumstances change outside of anyone’s control. Other times the human realizes that the Great Pyr is bigger and hairier and noisier than was anticipated. For any number of reasons, this beauti...
