Charming Spike, one of our 9 Great Pyrenees puppies from the Homeward Bound Litter, born on April 21, 2025, is a laid-back boy who loves life! Spike can be very chill but also loves to hang out in the yard and play with his siblings. He is the quiet one in the group, but don’t let that fool you as he can give the best kisses and can be found in the middle of a good play session! If you are looking for a gentle and fluffy addition to your family; these Pyr pups are growing up to be affectionate and protective companions. Spike loves to lean into his foster mom and will join in play and use his Pyr paw and talk! These babies are true Great Pyrenees with an intelligent and devoted temperament and calm demeanor—they will be an ideal family dog and will thrive in loving environments. Spike and his siblings enjoy having an early morning play session in the yard, and finally sacking out in the air conditioning, especially on these hot days! Spike is a confident boy who will need a secure, 5-foot fenced yard and a canine sibling to run with, play and follow around, learning everything! His calm demeanor would do well with children. Whether you're looking for an adventurous explorer, a cuddly lap dog, or a curious little learner, there's a Great Pyrenees pup in this litter just for you. Spike is ready to be your new best friend!

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.
