Meet Jumba, a lovable Great Pyrenees and English Mastiff mix who is ready to win your heart with his sweet personality and wonderfully balanced puppy energy! This handsome boy has a medium activity level and a special knack for knowing when it’s time to play and when he should settle down. He loves spending time with his people, whether they have two legs or four, and shows wonderful compassion while happily matching your energy. Jumba can turn his playful puppy mode on and off, so he won’t wear you out by demanding to play 24/7!
Jumba is actively learning his manners and daily routines, and he’s picking up good habits quickly. He is crate trained and is working on his leash skills. Inside his crate, he is generally calm and quiet, with most of his puppy vocals reserved for letting you know when he needs a potty break. He has also shown that he can be calm and relaxed when the moment calls for it. One of his most adorable quirks? Instead of sleeping in a typical doggy position, Jumba prefers to curl up in a classic cat-bun pose!
This social fellow loves meeting new friends and has enjoyed opportunities to meet people through his foster home and veterinary visits. He has also been exposed to other dogs and is eager to meet them, especially when there’s a chance to play! Jumba has met cats too, and has shown gentle curiosity around them. While he hasn’t had the opportunity to spend time around children yet, he would likely do well with dog-savvy kids ages six and up, who can appreciate that he’s a big puppy still learning about the world. He doesn’t seem interested in digging, and his barking is about what you’d expect from a pup.
When the weather is pleasant, Jumba enjoys being outdoors, soaking up the sunshine, and exploring everything the world has to offer. He’s also a fan of chicken nuggets! Car rides are still a work in progress, and he hasn’t quite decided they’re cool yet. He’s also not a fan of getting soggy, so keeping this boy nice and dry is highly recommended unless you’re prepared for a little wet-weather protest!
Jumba’s ideal home would be with a moderately active family ready to help him continue learning and growing, preferably with another friendly dog to be his companion and playmate. A 5-foot securely fenced yard would give him a wonderful place to explore, sunbathe, and enjoy outdoor adventures. Most of all, Jumba is looking for a family who will appreciate his affectionate nature, respect his need for downtime, and help him become the best dog he can be. With his sweet heart, social spirit, and impressive ability to balance fun with relaxation, Jumba is sure to bring plenty of love and laughter to his forever home!

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.
