And thanks to Jill for taking such great care of him! What a great pupper!

Dogs, especially, almost never lose their ability and willingness to bond with a good human.

Even cats, who are famously considered stand-offish, will usually adapt readily to a new home and family when given the chance.

Willie! So glad he has a happy home!

When we adopted our second Great Pyrenees, the people had tied him in the yard with a prong collar. He still had big scabs around his neck when we got him. The Humane Society had to shave him down completely because he was so matted. It took him a long time to trust us. Now he's the sweetest, most loving boy in the world. And dearly loved!

Here are a couple of my favorite pics of them that seems to illustrate the point:





Awwwww, it sounds like your big boy went through hell before being rescued. He sounds like a wonderful companion, and you are awesome for giving him his best life.

We have 3 Pyr's now, all rescues. They are pretty Great.
