Female Great Pyrenees rarely cohabitate with other females successfully. Our goal is for each adoption to be a permanent placement, therefore homes that already have a female dog are not eligible to adopt a female Pyr.

Marshmallow may be special needs but that doesn’t stop him from being a great big love bug. He loves to make new friends wherever he goes. Marshmallow was born with a congenital defect (bilateral patella luxation) and has had multiple surgeries to try to correct the problem. Marshmallow gets along well at home but uses a wheelchair for all walks and as much as possible to keep his spine straight. He will need pain meds at times as well as wearing his leg brace to keep his leg straight. Marshmallow is friendly with kids, cats and most other dogs. But Marshmallow would prefer to be the only male dog in the house as he is king in his own mind. He is a smaller Pyr who weighs in at 70 pounds and has double dew claws. Marshmallow knows how to sit, shake, lay down and will come when breakfast or dinner is called out.
