Patewood Pyrs

24/09/2026

And so the Patewood Pyr Pack continues. To the right is Luna, the reigning matriarch. She is 12 1/2 and slowing down. To the right is Goldie, 6 years old and has been in training under Luna for several years. Lately, as Luna has slowed down, Goldie has started sticking close to her… on guard … protective of her pack leader.

Alabama p*eps…. Who can help??!!

Pyrs are being killed at a high rate in shelters throughout Alabama. Once a Pyr finds itself in a shelter there they don't get much time at all before being euthanized. Alabama is one State where we are buried with desperate requests to save Pyrs but we have almost no help there!

We are in dire need of volunteers to help us save Pyrs in Alabama......we need short term foster homes, long term foster homes and transportation help. We can't save them if we don't have the volunteers to help us.

Just today we found out about another four Pyrs on a shelters euthanasia list and we don't have the volunteers to save them. It's really heartbreaking!

If you have good solid fencing, your current dogs are spayed/neutered and up-to-date on vaccinations and you want to make a big difference in an Alabama's Pyr's life then go here to fill out an application now https://nationalpyr.org/fostering/

Thank you Lehigh Valley Kennel Club for a lovely show on Saturday. Patewood and Cherlyn dogs did super! Patewoods Casper took Winner Dog and Best of Winners while Cherlyn N Patewoods Platinum Passion (Goldie) brought home Best of Opposite S*x. Thank you judge Gary Sparschu for seeing the quality of my babies! Sunday saw The Delaware Water Gap Kennel Club put on a festive show! Cherlyns Griffin of Patewood brought home Winners Dog while our sweet Goldie took Best of Winners and Best of Opposite S*x. Congrats to Monique Grimme and Wickliffe Mott for the amazing job you are doing with the handsome Griffin! A big thanks to judge Paula Nykiel for her kind words about our dogs. So everyone went home with points and ribbons. A big thank you to Josephine Kenney for her expert handling. Huge thank you to Lillian Waiters for looking as beautiful as our little star Goldie. Huge shout out to Best Buddy Grooming and Nikki who not only does a great job with our dogs but all my dogs loooooove her.
