Welcome
to The GPCCO Rescue pages. Currently the club has both
males and females in need of a home.
WHAT IS RESCUE?
Every Pyr should be a wanted Pyr, but in the unfortunate
event that this is not true, some regional Pyr clubs offer
a rescue service. Dogs are accepted from local shelters or
given directly to Pyr rescue by persons who for some
reason can no longer keep the dog. Rescued Pyrs are given
veterinary care, spayed or neutered and boarded through
donations of time and money by regional clubs and other
dedicated volunteers. Suitable homes are located and the
dogs are placed for a fee. The fee depends on the extent
of veterinary care and the policies established by the
regional clubs.
WHY DO PYRS END
UP IN RESCUE? All Pyrs started out being adorable
white fluff balls but somewhere along the line made the
mistake of getting too big, barking too much, shedding too
much, etc. Some people decide they can no longer properly
care for the animal, some because of the cost, some
because they did not understand the training requirements
of owning a giant breed dog. Some Pyrs are removed from
homes that have neglected or abused them. People get
divorced, have babies, develop allergies...the reasons go
on and on.
So,
if you feel that you would like to share your life with a
rescued Pyr, devoted and loyal to you and grateful for a
loving home, please contact Pyr Rescue. There are many
Pyrs waiting for adoption...make one of them your next
four footed friend and life long companion!
