“A diamond earns its sparkle from the pressure it endures.” Karma, a ten-month-old puppy, has a great life ahead. The Great Pyrenees Rescue Society (GPRS) pulled Karma from a high-kill shelter in Texas where she was found a frightened stray with mange. GPRS started her on her road to healing. Little did we know as her gorgeous long coat grew back, and her infectious personality blossomed, we found she has an orthopedic injury that did not heal correctly. This injury does not slow her down one bit. With daily medication and supplements, she runs and plays with frolicsome energy.

Karma loves her foster siblings and enjoys hugs and cuddles. She adores people and is very social with dogs and people. Everyone she meets, she walks right up and greets them with a wagging tail. Karma knows simple commands, has no food issues and has beautiful droopy eyes that melt your heart. She is not tall in stature, weighs about 55 pounds, and would be considered a “Pocket Pyr.”

Karma, born around February 2020, is house trained, walks nicely on a leash, and enjoys her daily walks and playing in the yard. Karma loves water. She is a typical puppy when it comes to investigating everything through her mouth. She adores females and male dogs, enjoys playing with her toys, and doesn’t mind sharing them. Karma pulls the usual puppy shenanigans and can be a bit of a talker. She will use the crate but does not prefer it, as she stays well in her gated area when her foster mom is not at home.

She will need a home that understands her medical needs, has a slightly modified lifestyle to meet her needs with committed to lifelong care. You will be adopting a gem if you choose to complete and submit an adoption application today. Karma is currently living with her foster family in Vaughn, WA.

PUPPIES ARE ONLY PLACED IN HOMES WITH YOUTHFUL, PLAYFUL RESIDENT DOGS.

Our requirements for puppy adoption are simple and necessary.

1. Our puppies are not livestock guardians, they are family pets that live inside the family home.
2. 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.
3. 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.
4. Preference is always given to those with Great Pyrenees experience.
5. Applicants must have secure, visible fencing and a socialization plan in place. 
6. 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.

Adoption Fee: $375. (Adoption fee includes spay/neuter, heartworm test, rabies, distemper, parvo and health certificate for travel). Adoption applications can be found on our website at  https://www.greatpyreneesrescuesociety.org Northwest adopters pay the cost of transport to independent transport service ($200).

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!
