About this Dog
📍 San Francisco Bay Area, CA – Transport available for the right home Meet Sawyer – Loyal, Gentle, and Ready for His Perfect Home Sawyer is a 4-year-old Great Pyrenees mix (about 68 lbs) with a big heart and a gentle spirit. He’s happiest on a quiet trail, lounging in the yard, or soaking up affection from his people. Sawyer is fixed, leash trained, potty trained, and knows basic commands. With proper introductions, he does well with some dogs. We’ve worked closely with both a trainer and a behaviorist to address his needs, but his guarding behavior around our toddler hasn’t improved. As heartbroken as we are, we feel the kindest and safest choice is to find him a home where he’ll be more comfortable and can truly thrive. Sawyer currently takes daily anxiety medication, though it’s possible he may not need it in a more suitable environment. He’s not a fit for homes with children or cats, but he would love a place with space to roam – rural properties or homes with a large, securely fenced yard would be a dream. If you’re looking for a loyal companion who will always be by your side, Sawyer is ready to give you his whole heart.

Adopt Sawyer and Receive Sawyer's Fund
Adopting a pet can be expensive, and we're trying to help by fundraising for each individual in need of adoption. After verifying the adoption, Sawyer's new family will receive the funds that their pet has raised.
$0.0 is Sawyer's current balance
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. If you adopted the Sawyer, thank you for providing a home and a loving family!
Please begin the process of claiming Sawyer's contribution here.
For adoptions in which nokillnetwork.org was the matchmaker and we have contact information for both parties, we make every effort to contact the adopting family. For adoptions that were not facilitated by nokillnetwork.org, we still encourage the adopting family to claim the contribution by submitting the necessary information.
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. The adopting family will be required to provide proof of adoption between 4-6 weeks after adoption. This is to ensure that the home is a good match and Sawyer was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, Sawyer’s balance will be sent to the adopting family. Our staff provides instructions and help throughout this process.
We want the Sawyer’s balance to go to the adopting family as a way to say thank you for providing a loving home and to help with pet care expenses. In the unfortunate event we cannot contact them and verify the adoption, Sawyer’s balance will remain in our general fund. This fund may be used to match contributions made to other adoptable pets, incentify other adoption-related actions, promote our mission, or support the operating expenses of nokillnetwork.org. If you would like to make a direct contribution to nokillnetwork.org to help us help other pets in need, you can go here. We appreciate your generosity and help!
