Daisy - Great Pyrenees Dog for Adoption in Bedford Hills, New York

Hi, I’m Daisy! My foster family calls me the “gentle giant,” but honestly, I’m really not that big at 86 pounds! I’m a beautiful 4-year-old 91 pound Great Pyrenees with a huge heart, and I’m hoping to find a family who will give me the time, patience, and love I deserve.

When I first came here, I was in pretty rough shape, but just look at me now! I’ve been doing so, so well, and I’m really starting to show everyone what a wonderful girl I am. I’m incredibly sweet, gentle, and loving, and I absolutely adore people. I’m also very food motivated, which makes me eager to please and a lot of fun to work with! I’m still learning and gaining confidence, but treats are definitely the way to my heart.

I have a pretty wonderful balance of being a relaxed, easygoing girl while still enjoying adventures. I LOVE a good, long nap and am perfectly happy curling up somewhere cozy and taking it easy. But when it’s time to head outside, I’m always excited to explore! I enjoy being outdoors, taking in all the sights and smells, and getting some fresh air.

I’m house trained, quiet, and very well-mannered. In fact, I barely ever bark! I’m also a social girl and get along well with both people and other dogs. I’ve done a great job showing everyone that I can be a gentle and friendly companion.

Now, I should tell you that I’m a little sensitive. New people and new situations can feel a bit overwhelming for me at first, so I need someone who understands that trust takes a little time. If you’re patient and let me come out of my shell at my own pace, you’ll see my sweet personality shine through. Once I get to know you and realize that I’m safe, I will trust you with my whole heart.

I’m good with kids, too, although I think I would be happiest in a calm, peaceful home where I can continue to learn, build my confidence, and grow into the best version of myself. I’m not looking for a chaotic lifestyle—I’d much rather have a family who appreciates the simple things: relaxing together, going for leisurely adventures, enjoying the outdoors, and giving me plenty of love and reassurance.

I’ve already come such a long way, and I’m so proud of the progress I’ve made. Now I’m ready for the next chapter: finding my forever family. If you’re looking for a gentle, loving, quiet companion with a big heart (even if she’s not quiteas big as her nickname suggests!), I might just be the girl you’ve been waiting for.


Thank you so much for your interest in adopting a dog from A New Chance Animal Rescue (https://anewchancear.org). We are a 501c3, tax deductible organization. ANCAR is a foster-based rescue, and we adopt within a 90 mile radius of Bedford Hills, NY. You will find the adoption application here: (https://anewchancear.org/adopt/adoption-application/). All fields on the application must be completed. Please read about the adoption process (https://www.anewchancear.org/adopt/our-adoption-process/) so you'll know what to expect when you submit.

Our dogs are in foster care and we do NOT have a shelter or boarding facility. AN APPLICATION MUST BE COMPLETED IN FULL AND APPROVED BEFORE A DOG CAN BE MET. This is a firm policy. Our busy volunteers are not able to respond to questions about the dog or dog meeting requests in the absence of an application. We know these dogs very well because they are in foster care. Please read the profiles of the dog(s) you are interested in prior to submitting an application. If there are specific requirements stated (ie: Fenced Yard or Canine Friend Required) these are included because they are vital to the happiness, health, safety and adoption success of that dog.

We are only able to save as many dogs as we have foster homes (https://www.anewchancear.org/foster/faqs/) and resources for. We provide medical care including vaccinations, testing, deworming, spaying/neutering and microchipping before transporting our dogs. We provide all supplies, preventatives and any follow up vet care necessary while they are in foster care. These costs are high and the number of lives we can save is entirely dependent upon donations from people like you. We do not receive funding from private foundations or government sources. If you can find room in your heart to help us, with any amount, we are truly grateful (https://www.anewchancear.org/help/donate/). We are a 501c3 organization, so all donations are tax-deductible. It is only through the kindness of supporters like you that we are 'changing lives...one tail at a time' by providing our dogs with 'A New Chance.' (https://anewchancear.org)

Thanks so much.
