About this Dog
Look at those beautiful Pyr eyes and the electrifying smile on this girl! Ester is what we call a Pocket Pyr – a petite 70 pounds makes her pretty PYRfect for that Pyr lover who is ready to “downsize”! Ms. Ester was surrendered with a litter of puppies to the shelter, along with her sister and her litter. She may not have had a lot of love before, but she sure has learned to love all the attention she is receiving now. She is learning lots of great things such as walking on a leash, going in a crate (for a treat) but her favorite thing is meeting new people, who she greats with a friendly tail wag hoping for a treat in return! She took some time to trust, but to meet her today—she knows no strangers! She is great with all the dogs she is around, learning to play. Ester will run and chase and roll around and then do it all over again, never getting tired of having a friend around her! She is even great at grooming time; she had some bad mats clipped out and she stood patiently, not complaining one time! She appears to be housebroken and loves to drag her blanket around. Ester is very comfortable in the home, happy to lay down waiting on the next adventure. The ideal home for this small, gorgeous girl would be with an active family, a large, 5-foot fenced yard and older children and even a kitty! Another dog, or two, are a must as Ester’s motto is “the more the merrier”! This girl has a happy personality with a smile on her face and a tail that doesn’t quit. With plenty of LOVE, Ester will blossom into a wonderful companion and family member!
