Tygrys's Story

Meet Tyg (Tygrys)<br/><br/>Tyg came to GRRAND as a puppy in early 2019 and was qyuickly adopted. Through no fault of his own he was returned in July 2023. Sadly he's been at the kennel for over three years.<br/><br/>He's a very special dog! He is mostly Anatolian Shepherd, meaning he's a guardian dog. He loves and protects his people and home. When first meeting Tyg, his 100 lbs presence can be intinidating, especially as he barks at strangers, but once he gets to know you he is the most loving, sweet boy.<br/><br/>He really is the GOAT! 'Greatest Of All Time' at the kennel. Volunteers love him! He barks at new volunteers, but at some point he recognizes they are part of the GRRAND family, and when that day comes he doesn't bark any more, he's accepted them, and they can go in his run, feed him treats and pet him. EVERYONE at the kennel wants to be Tyg's friend, even the other dogs, who he tolerates, but doesn't want to share his yard with. <br/><br/>He is very well trained. He knows all the basic commands, and walks great on a leash. He loves to go to the GRRAND pool for his daily swim; just four laps and he's ready to go back to his play yard to dry off! He loves his weekly field trip to the park, Starbucks for a pup cup, and McDonalds for a cheeseburger (without the bun). He lets us dress him up for all major holidays like Christmas, St Patrick's Day, July 4th etc, and he never complains. Just check out his pictures. <br/><br/>Tyg needs to go to a home with a very dog savvy person who is willing to put some time and effort in up front, but I promise, the reward is well worth every minute you spend making friends with our big boy! <br/><br/>We believe it best for him to go to a home without children or other pets, and a good size, secure fenced yard,.
