Meet Bentley, a handsome Great Pyrenees mix with a stunning medium-length all-white coat who is ready to find his forever home! This gentle and loving dog would make a wonderful companion for the right family. While Bentley is initially shy and cautious when meeting new people, he warms up to visitors quickly and becomes very affectionate once he's familiar with his surroundings. His inquisitive nature shines through as he loves to investigate his environment, and his distinctive very curly tail wags enthusiastically when he's happy. Bentley has a high activity level and is currently learning to walk on a leash, making him perfect for an active family who enjoys outdoor adventures. Bentley likes being brushed and playing with toys, and appears to be fine with all the dogs he’s met. Currently living outside, Bentley would prefer to be an indoor companion where he can be closer to his family. He requires a 4-foot fence for his safety and security. He has no behavioral issues and would thrive in any situation where his natural inquisitiveness can be channeled positively. - He’s a young boy who would love for his people to teach him new things! Bentley's combination of gentleness, affection, and curious spirit make him an ideal match for a patient family ready to welcome this loving Pyr into their hearts and 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.
