Meet Beau!
A handsome five-year-old Great Pyrenees/Chow mix currently in Chattanooga, TN, whose gorgeous fawn and black coat, impressive 125-pound frame, and irresistible face make him impossible to overlook.
Beau is a super-smart, affectionate boy with a wonderful balance of playful energy and laid-back charm! He enjoys leisurely walks, relaxing in a safe yard, and simply spending time near his favorite people. His sweetest habit? Resting his big, beautiful head on your lap to request some well-earned affection. With Beau, there's always room for another cuddle!
This gentle-hearted giant knows commands like "sit," "lie down," and "come on." He's fully house-trained, comfortable relaxing alone, and respectful of furniture. He enjoys car rides, welcomes strangers, and happily sleeps on the bedroom floor at night. He'll occasionally announce passing visitors with a bark, taking his neighborhood watch responsibilities seriously!
Beau needs an experienced large-breed family who can confidently manage his size and strength. He has a strong prey drive and has repeatedly chased and caught a cat. Therefore, his new loving home must be completely free of cats and small dogs. He gets along well with a Brittany Spaniel and may be compatible with appropriately matched medium or large dogs following careful introductions. Dog parks are not recommended, and his compatibility with children remains unknown.
Neutered and vaccinated, Beau has no known medical conditions. He's making progress with a weight-management plan and has already lost five pounds! Veterinary visits require prescribed calming medications beforehand because handling can be stressful. Regular brushing, positive reinforcement, and patient grooming support will help him feel comfortable and cared for.
Beau would appreciate more frequent walks and a family who understands his need for thoughtful boundaries. He isn't fond of crates, but he's trustworthy when relaxing freely indoors.
