Yellow Dog is a happy fella who loves people and craves attention. He has a medium-length, super soft coat, so you’ll love dishing out pets to this sweet boy! Yellow Dog came into rescue with his five brothers, and all of them have young dog energy, enjoying an active lifestyle full of play and adventure. They are half Cattle Dog, half Great Pyrenees, and 100% Good Boys! Yellow Dog is learning to walk on leash and doing very well. He's mastered the "sit" command and will stay in position until the treats are officially gone! Now he’s working on learning “down,” which we’re sure this smart boy will have figured out asap, as he’s extremely food motivated (peanut butter is his favorite treat!). He is easy to groom, having no problem with baths or nail trims, and he loves being brushed. Always sporting a silly smile, Yellow Dog adores play time, so bring out the stuffies and get ready to be entertained by this hilarious youngster! “Chase” is a favorite game for this little guy and his brothers. He is gentle and loving, and after this cutie is tuckered out, he finds his humans for a naptime snuggle at their feet. This calm and curious boy is easy-going and will lean against you for love. Yellow Dog’s ideal home will be with an active family with a canine sibling for him to play with. This sweet boy is friendly with everyone he meets, and he is so looking forward to the day he gets to meet his furever family!

NYS Registered Rescue # RR102

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 may consider fostering for some of our dogs who are in boarding. Please visit Fostering FAQfor an application and information about our fostering program.
