Abby

Meet Abby, a gentle three-year-old Great Pyrenees from Santa Rosa Beach, FL, whose calm heart and snow-white coat bring a peaceful presence to any home or farm. Abby is in the prime of her adult years, blending grace, strength, and the sweet, steady temperament her breed is known for.

Abby is the kind of dog who seems to float across the yard, taking her time to check out the scenery, sniff the breeze, and occasionally nudge your hand with her head for a bit of affection. She’s perfectly at home on a farm, quietly strolling among other animals with ease, but she’s just as content lounging on the porch or curling up inside as a house dog. Though she’s not much for toys, Abby finds joy in the simple things—long walks outside, shady spots to nap in, and the company of her human friends.

At 85 pounds, she’s a gentle giant that is house-trained and current on all vaccinations. Abby doesn’t need constant attention, but she’ll happily be your shadow if you let her! She knows a couple of commands like “sit” and “shake,” and while she hasn’t had formal obedience training, she responds well to calm guidance. Abby is gentle with young children (she adores the company of her current family's 7-year-old), and gets along just fine with both dogs and cats, even if she doesn’t actively seek them out.

She has no known health issues, isn’t easily stressed, and handles being left alone for short periods without any trouble. Her grooming needs are low—an occasional trip to the groomer every six months keeps her looking fresh and feeling comfortable. She thrives best in a home with a fenced yard where she can safely roam and relax.

Whether you're a family with kids, a caregiver with a quiet home, or someone looking for a loyal companion on your property, Abby might just be the perfect fit! Could your home be the next peaceful pasture for this lovely girl?
