We have an 11-month-old solid white male Great Pyrenees named “Trolley” up for adoption for a family pet. He is NOT good with farm animals including chickens, geese, and goats. He is very friendly and up-to-date on shots, including rabies vaccine, and would be an ideal family pet. He is an outside dog and needs lots of space to run. We do not want him going to a home that is going to put him in a kennel or chain him to a tree for the rest of his life, but he does need some type of containment. Because of his instincts to protect his territory from wild animals, he WILL run off if he doesn’t have some sort of fencing. IF you can keep him totally separated from your poultry and have more patience than I do with training him, he MAY do ok. I can't guarantee it.

He knows basic obedience commands, including “sit” and “shake.” He will listen, but keep in mind that he is still very much a puppy despite his large size. He weighs close to 100 pounds and is still growing. Please research the breed “Great Pyrenees” for more information about this breed and their requirements before you contact us. We are asking $100 adoption fee plus a vet reference. We will verify your vet reference. He does not have papers and is unaltered. We will not respond to emails that simply state, “I want him. Call…” Give us good reasons why your family would be a good fit.

We have been working with him since he was 5 weeks old trying to train him to protect our farm, but he lacks the instinct. He kills chickens, mauls geese, and chases the goats all day to the point they can’t eat. To be fair to him, he needs a new home as a pet.

Gorgeous boy! Looks very similar to my boy Remi, who turns a year old next week. Here is a pic of Remi taken in Oct.
