Notes from Saving Pyrs In Need

Adopt Obi! He is a smart, playful, up for adventure, male Great Pyrenees mix, we believe he is just over 1 yrs old, currently weighs about 95lbs.

Obi is very loyal. He enjoys belly rubs and loves snuggling with his foster family, definitely wants to be a lap dog. He can be cautious of new people, especially males, and will sometimes bark and pee out of fear. Once he warms up he is great with people. He is good with kids and the 3yr old in his foster home but doesn't realize how big he is and occasionally knocks them over.

He is playful and goofy. Enjoys playing with toys, prancing in the backyard, and even swimming.

Obi is very smart and loves to work for treats, has picked up on tricks very quickly. He has also learned to open gates and doors, so may need to add a carabiner to your yard gates.

He really enjoys wrestling and playing with dogs, following it up with laying together on the couch for a nap. While he is amazing with the dominate medium sized female, he has showed some food aggression towards the large submissive male dog in his foster home. He is currently underweight, so with time he may not be insecure around food with other large male dogs. He is great with both dogs when no food is involved!

Obi is potty trained, crate trained, does well in the car, and is great on the leash but will pull some. He loves walks and hikes.

Obi is a street dog turned lap dog, he would be a great addition to many homes!

He is currently neutered and up to date on vaccines. His adoption fee is $250. Currently located in DFW area Texas, out of state adopters are responsible for arranging their own transport but we are happy to recommend transport companies.
