ORGANIZATION: Great Pyrs and Paws Rescue

Join our team of volunteers who are dedicated to rescuing, rehabilitating, and rehoming Great Pyrenees dogs and Pyr mixes across Texas and the Pacific Northwest.

We are seeking volunteers to help screen submitted adoption applications for potential adopters. Our ACs process several applications per week by calling the applicants veterinarian to establish history of medical care, review fence and yard photos, and conduct phone interviews to identify goodness of fit for dogs in our care. ACs discuss Pyr traits educating potential adopters about these gentle giants and assist the adopters with transport pick up and follow up to ensure adopter is well supported while acclimating their new family member into their home.

If interested fill out a volunteer application on our website: https://greatpyrsandpaws.org/

Or inquire from this posting and a volunteer will reach out.

Candidate must live in the Pacific or Central time zones.

Mission Statement

Purpose Great Pyrs & Paws Rescue is a 501c3 organization with a network of volunteers across the United States. We rescue, rehabilitate, and rehome unwanted, displaced, and neglected Great Pyrenees along with other Livestock Guardian dogs that are abandoned in high kill shelters throughout Texas. By placing them in caring and nurturing foster homes we are able to successfully adopt them to loving homes throughout the Western United states. Our mission is to engage community members to promote better treatment of these dogs and reduce euthanasia numbers through adoptions, education, and other resources. Vision: GPPR is at the forefront of generating awareness concerning the mistreatment and over-population of Livestock Guardian Breeds.

Description

Formed in April 2020 with support from National Great Pyrenees Rescue we received our 501c3 May 2020. Our rescue focuses on finding forever homes for the Pyrs in Texas and in the Pacific Northwestern states, by placing them with fosters and adopters in Oregon, Washington, Arizona, Colorado, Idaho, New Mexico and California. The Great Pyrenees is one of the oldest livestock guardian dog breeds, and for hundreds of years they have been bred to think independently. True gentle giants Great Pyrenees are intuitive, independent thinkers and formidable protectors and companions who may seem almost human at times!
