Athena and Typhon are ready to leave us for their furever home in the new year.

This sweet, social bonded pair of adults came to us when their original owner was no longer able to care for them due to circumstances unrelated to the dogs. They have been loved before, and they are loved by us now. They are ready to be loved family members again!

Typhon and Athena are bonded, and we are looking for one home for them. Athena is a small girl, and Typhon (fitting to his name) is a giant male who is currently slimming down to a healthy weight. They will always need to be fed separately so that she can eat in peace and he doesn't eat her share! (Every married couple knows what it is like when the OTHER person eats all of the good snacks, right?!)

These Pyrs were once working dogs and are safe around horses, goats, cats, and chickens. At their age, because of their friendly Pyrsonalities, and considering Athena's petite size, we think they are best matched with a hobby farm or other setting where they can interact with people as well as with critters. These two won't be happy (or stay) in a pasture without lots of human interaction.

To learn more about our Greek giant and goddess, please read our policies and fill out an application to schedule a meet-and-greet at carolinapyrrescue.com. We are scheduling visits with approved adopters for early 2026.

We are caring for a full house of Pyrs but hit pause (paws?!) on hosting adoption visits during the holidays.

Please, keep visiting our webpage and social media pages to learn about the dogs in our care and fill out applications to meet them. We are still posting about our dogs, screening applications, and signing up approved adopters for slots starting in January 2026!

We can't wait to introduce folks to our wonderful dogs again!

Happy #TwoForTuesday, friends of the Pyrs!

Why hasn't anyone adopted Carmela and Meadow yet?!

These darling young females are a bonded pair. We suspect that they are mother and daughter, and we sure hope that whoever adopts them does a doggy DNA test and keeps us in the loop! Meadow is clearly a mix, but with what? Cinnamon rolls? Snickerdoodles? Something sweet for sure!

This video is a great representation of them. These are silly, loving girls.

They also are "pocket Pyrs" who are smaller than the typical Pyrs and Pyr mixes in our care. They would be a great match for a family who wants two floofs for the size of one!

Carmela and Meadow have completed treatment for heartworms and are ready to leave us.

Happy #SpecialNeedsSaturday!

Friends of the Pyrs, we are asking Santa Paws for a home for our special-needs bonded pair. Skye and Stark have become long-term residents at the rescue, but they are ready for and deserve a home of their own together.

In the video, we explain their roads to feeling their best, which each is today. Their medical needs are minimal, but Skye does need pancreatic enzyme supplement with each meal, and Stark will need his immune-system-boosting supplements and medicated baths.

They are mellow, loving, and sweet young adults who will make the most adoring family members for those willing to open their hearts.

Lots of us humans live full lives with chronic health conditions, and Skye and Stark are doing the same.

Visit carolinapyrrescue.com to read the Pyrs' profiles, learn about our adoption process, and fill out an application to schedule a meet-and-greet.
