A little about them
Solomon is a handsome, affectionate 2-year-old Great Pyrenees with badger markings who weighs about 90 pounds. This gentle, playful boy is currently in foster care in Louisville, Kentucky after being found as a stray. He loves attention, belly rubs, brushing, his Grumpy Gnome toy, and relaxing on the couch or a cool tile floor.
Ideal Home
Solomon needs a home with a secure 6-foot fence and adult supervision while he is outdoors, as he may try to chase deer or coyotes and could climb or go over a fence. He has integrated successfully with three dogs after careful introductions. He has not been tested with cats. As a guardian breed, he may bark at unfamiliar people until he understands they are friends.
Ongoing Health
Solomon tested positive for Lyme disease and completed a 30-day course of treatment. He was neutered and received a full veterinary workup after arriving from the shelter.
Training & Support
Solomon is house trained and calmly walks into his kennel or room while meals are prepared. He is learning leash manners, “Leave it,” and “With me,” and benefits from a regular exercise routine, consistency, patience, redirection, and high-value treats. He sits readily for his collar and leash and is cooperative for grooming and nail trims.
