Meet Twinkle
Hello my name is Twinkle! I am approximately 4 months old. I'm not sure where I came from and I haven't had the easiest life so far and I'm very thankful to be rescued and fostered.
Although I am timid, I have a gentle and sensitive soul and sweet personality. I wouldn't hurt a fly! I put my head down and wag my tail when you pet me. I really enjoy being around other dogs, my foster sister is a playful dog who bring out my playful personality. When she gets the zoomies I wag my tail and follow her around and paw at her. I haven't figured out how to run around and play with her yet but I have so much to learn. I'm also great with cats, they invade my personal space and I don't mind one bit.
Something I dislike is shouting or loud noises. My favorite thing is my Kong ball with peanut butter, and sitting outside in the grass. I nap in my crate with the door open, or my doggie bed during the day. At night I sleep in my crate on the floor near by. I have my own toys and I can be found quietly chewing on them. I'm doing great with my potty training schedule and haven't had any accidents. I've only been in foster care a few days but I'm such a sweet gentle girl and every day I'm making progress and coming out of my shell.
PUPPIES ARE ONLY PLACED IN HOMES WITH YOUTHFUL, PLAYFUL RESIDENT DOGS WHO ARE AT LEAST 50 POUNDS.
Our requirements for puppy adoptions are simple and necessary.
Our puppies are not livestock guardians, they are family pets that live inside of the family home.
Puppies must be placed in homes with a youthful, adult resident dog of similar size. This gives the puppy a mentor and a solid foundation for becoming part of the family.
Puppies are only adopted to homes with someone at home at least part of the day. If no one is home for 6-8 hours at a time, please do not apply.
Preference is always given to those with Great Pyrenees experience.
Applicants must have secure, visible fencing and a socialization plan in place.
The fastest way to be considered for a puppy is to fill out an application. Adoption is not first come, first served. GPRS and its fosters work diligently to find the right fit for each and every unique dog and puppy.
Applicant's personal pets must be current on vaccines & heartworm/flea prevention and be altered.
Adoption fee: $450 (Adoption fee includes spay or neuter, distemper/parvo vaccines, flea preventative, deworming, and health certificate for travel). Adopters located outside of Texas pay the cost of transport to an independent transport service ($250).
GPRS has proudly placed thousands of Great Pyrenees and GP mixes in the PNW for over a decade. Our volunteers have over 100 years combined experience fostering, screening, and placing this majestic breed into loving, forever homes. When adopting from us, you can rest assured that we provide life-long support and advice when it comes to your new family member. As always, our purpose is to find the best match for every unique dog that comes through our doors. Taking the time to find the right fit comes first and foremost at the Great Pyrenees Rescue Society. If you are interested in adopting, please take the time, and apply. You will see firsthand how much care, attention and love goes into the process, when you are guided a personal screener. This is why we have people come back again and again for their next family member! See all our dogs, fill out an application and discover why we are the BEST at placing the right dog in the right home!
ADOPTION, FOSTERING, AND DONATIONS are just some of the ways you can help a rescued dog. We have worked hard to cultivate a large network of volunteers to save this majestic breed. While monetary donations are always much appreciated, you can also help by donating your time as a GPRS foster or volunteer.
