Pokey

Pokey is a 4-year-old, 105-pound Great Pyrenees who spent his life getting bounced from one farm to another because he has absolutely no aptitude for guarding sheep. Somewhere along the way, someone might have considered asking Pokey about his career goals. They involve being petted. The sheep need to make other arrangements.<br/><br/>He arrived matted to the skin, so his current outfit is the result of a necessary full shave. When his coat grows back, he will be a drop-dead gorgeous, mega-woolly Pyr. He is already seriously handsome. He is just temporarily operating without the upholstery.<br/><br/>Pokey loves people and wants to hang out wherever they are, preferably within petting distance. He has lived with young children and has excellent manners with them. He is housebroken, very chill and fine with cats. Other dogs do not particularly interest him, and he would prefer to be your only dog. He has put in enough time being assigned things he did not ask for.<br/><br/>His ideal home has a fenced yard where he can sniff all the things, followed by a back deck with a sunbeam suitable for a lengthy nap. His two customary speeds are sloth and comatose. He is capable of a significant burst of speed, but he would need to see a compelling reason.<br/><br/>If you want a sweet, substantial companion with lovely manners and very little interest in productivity, Pokey would like to discuss retirement at your house. Please have a place to sit and both hands available.<br/><br/>If you are interested in adopting this dog, please apply online, at https://bigfluffydogs.com/dog-adoption/ and email kayla@bigfluffydogs.com.
