Nestle and Klondike are a deeply bonded pair of Pyrs whose connection is as beautiful as their temperaments. They move through life side‑by‑side - playing, exploring, resting, and reassuring each other in a way that makes their bond unmistakable and charming to every person they meet. Both have medium energy, love being outdoors, and settle calmly inside the home. They are crate‑trained, friendly with people, gentle with cats, and respectful of a 5-foot secure fence. Nestle is the social butterfly - smiling, trotting, offering her paw, and jumping into the car like she’s ready for her next big adventure. She relaxes easily and loves stretching out beside Klondike, often licking his face and ears as they settle in, which might be the cutest thing she does. She adores people, enjoys training, and happily follows Klondike’s lead when something new pops up. Klondike, the gentle, oversized teddy bear is her steady, gentle counterpart - friendly, affectionate, and always ready to sit politely and throw his paw up “just in case.” His huge wagging tail and happy demeanor make him instantly lovable. He explores the yard like a big fluffy scout, leans into the gate like a responsible neighborhood watch captain, and lights up whenever Nestle is nearby. He gets along well with other dogs and is especially tender with Nestle, staying close to her and matching her energy and comfort. Together, Nestle and Klondike bring a rare harmony - two dogs who complement each other perfectly and thrive because they have each other. They’re pure joy: chasing each other around the yard, rolling in the grass, greeting cats gently, being friendly with other dogs, and settling calmly inside. They’re looking for a family with a secure yard, big‑dog experience or willingness to learn, and a love for the Pyr personality. If you’ve ever dreamed of adopting a pair who already come with built‑in harmony, laughter, and heart, Nestle and Klondike are ready to make your home complete.

NYS Registered Non-Profit Rescue # RR102. National Great Pyrenees Rescue (NGPR) has been rescuing and adopting out Great Pyrenees since 2006. Our relationship doesn’t end with adoption, as we continue to support adopters throughout the lifetime of their dog.
Our goal is to assess every application on its own merits. Key considerations are: 1) the experience of the applicant with large breed dogs 2) children in the household or regularly visiting the household are ready for a large-breed dog who is a guardian by nature and 3) the sex of other dogs currently residing in the household to avoid same-sex aggression issues. For puppies under six months old, the applicant’s ability to socialize the puppy with older dogs is a priority.
We have many Pyrs and Pyr mixes who need homes. You can see more of these beautiful dogs by clicking on Adoptable Dogs.
