SNOW IN NH - GREAT PYRENEES / MIXED (LONG COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Posted Breed: Great Pyrenees / Mixed (long coat). I'm Snow. I'm about 3 years old and I'm part Great Pyrenees and probably part Golden Retriever too. I was abandoned or maybe I just ran away from a bad home. But I lucked out. I was rescued. And I'm starting to trust again thanks to many caring volunteers. I had a tough start in life and I’m very afraid now. I will need patience and lots of caring attention from people who understand me. A lot of activity and noise makes me very scared so I need a quiet home and a place where I can feel safe. I am most comfortable outside but I need a secure yard because sometimes I just feel like running away. I don’t think I spent much time indoors because everything is so new to me and I’m not sure I belong, but I like to explore. I don’t mind other dogs, but I’m not sure how to act around them. They seem to be ok with me. Maybe if I spend more time getting to know them, we’ll be friends. Cats are fine with me too but I doubt if they would ever like me very much. I’m really a sweet, sensitive little girl who weighs about 75 pounds and really wants to be happy with people and to enjoy doing fun, doggie things. I know I can be a good, loving companion if I’m given the chance. If you think you can open your home and hearts to this beautiful, sweet soul who only wants a quiet, safe place with people who will love and care for her, please contact Snow’s Foster Mom, Diane, 603-525-4192.
