Fred

Fred is an estimated 5 year old male Great Pyrenees now ready for a home of his own.

He was an unclaimed stray that had spent some time hanging out in a rural area before his wandering ended him up in impound. At the shelter he was showing signs of kennel distress and needed a safe spot to land.

Fred joined the sanctuary where he could have more space, watch over the horses and be vetted. He was neutered, microchipped, received updated vaccines and lab work which showed he is heartworm negative and though underweight otherwise healthy. He was pretty dirty from his adventures, so a trip to the groomer was a priority. He tolerated his bath pretty well for his breed, and absolutely loved the blow out afterwards!

He has adjusted to leash walking, crate trained and housebroken. He is friendly with other dogs and indifferent to cats.

Fred is quiet though alert. He is most content being next to people and does need reassurance he is not alone at times.

Don’t let all the super soft fluff fool you, he is only 75 pounds. He is tolerating a regular diet with multiple feedings daily to help him gain weight to a healthy range. He won’t take treats from your hand, preferring to eat in private, but add a little cheese and he will be your very best friend!
