Everett

Everett came to us as a stray from animal control. He was wary of people. He has been at the Happy Hounds Prison Dog Program for several months and has done very well! Everett is a really great dog and should be somewhere he can have a large fenced yard to play in and patrol. At first we thought Everett was a farm dog, but the husky in him does not make him suitable for farm life. Everett needs to form a bond with his person/people. He doesn't tolerate strangers and will alert them that they are unwelcome. Everett is truly a working dog whose sole purpose in life is to protect his people and property. He is not a social dog per se except with his owner(s) and family members. Because of his protective nature, he would do better in a home without children. If you are looking for a dog to protect you, your family, and your property, Everest is your boy....AND he's housebroken and obedience trained! Anyone willing to take a couple of days to bond with Everett will find out what a special dog he is; VERY loyal. He's a beautiful, smart, sweet boy that we think would love to have a family and home of his own. Please spread the word about Everett so he can have his forever family soon! Everett is ready to be adopted. Whoever adopts this beautiful boy will need to understand that it will take a little time to bond. Once that bond is created Everett will be the perfect dog. He will protect the family and property, Update from his trainer: Week 24. Not much more to say about Everett. He a Pyrenees and needs a furever home that understands the breed. He bonds strongly with his people in about 2 days. He will always be a guard dog (in his DNA). He will always protect his people. He knows are his commands and cues. Everett is a very humble and observant dog especially to strangers. He does guard his "space". He is not actively involved with any other dogs. No issues with toys or food. He's more of a guarder around his "home". Overall, Everett is a great dog as long as he acknowledges their trust which has to be earned. He knows his commands/cues like sit, down. He isn't destructive and a good leash walker (unless he sees something that distracts him). He is particularly annoyed by trucks for some reason, so a fenced yard is a must.
