Adoption Form
Dog adoption is a very serious decision, one that will change your life for many years to come. As you probably already know, Great Pyrenees Mountain Dogs are a rather unique breed with somewhat special needs. They are not necessarily suited to all homes or lifestyles. Make sure you do your research on this breed. You will find much information on this website.
As a part of our Great Pyr rescue program, we are careful to ensure that adopting families are well-informed about the breed. Our club and this site, are dedicated to providing you with as much accurate information as we can obtain through our research and our own personal experience with the breed.
Note that we do not allow dogs to go to homes with shock fencing or tie-outs. Do not apply if you have either.
Pyrs do not always respect invisible fencing and tie-outs can lead to aggression since they cannot reach all areas of their territory, and fear if they get shocked. You must have secure-fencing of at least 6-feet.
In addition, we do everything within reason to ensure that you are provided with a dog that suits your environment, and needs, and that your family is a suitable fit for that dog. We do this through collecting information, and through personal contact with you.
Our dogs are fostered in various locations in Ontario. Be prepared to make a longer than usual drive to meet the dog.
Adoption Process:
- Complete the form below to enable us to help you find the most suited big white for you.
- We review your application and get in touch with you via phone or email to determine suitability.
- If it is determined you are a suitable family for a particular dog, and that you are interested in a dog, we endeavour to arrange a home visit.
- If the home visit goes well, we ask you to meet the dog with all family members with whom the dog will be living.
- You are given a month to ensure the dog is settling in well before we proceed with the adoption contract.
- There is a $500 minimum adoption donation that goes to medical costs for dogs in our care.
We know that this will be time well-invested.
Please note, this online form requires you to provide a valid email address.
If you prefer, you may download and print a paper form here and send by regular mail.
There are many dogs in need. Please help us reduce their misery. Save a Great Pyr.
