The Florida Great Pyrenees Club (FGPC) was formed in April, 1998, as a regional club. From that original meeting, at which there were about a dozen people, we have grown to more than 200 members. We now have members from Miami to Tallahassee! FGPC is a non-profit Florida corporation and an IRS recognized 501(c)(3) non-profit, all volunteer organization, supported by public contributions and involved citizens. This means you can rest assured your funds are going to a sure cause, as we file with the IRS annually and have a financial audit performed on our books each year.
FGPC Mission Improving, advancing and protecting the Great Pyrenees breed through education and cooperation.
Our primary goals are: (1) to maintain and further the integrity of the breed; (2) to hold regular club meetings, matches, public education, and fun activities for members; (3) to exchange ideas regarding care, behavior, training, health, and breeding for Pyrs; and (4) to be active in Great Pyrenees rescue.
Our club became affiliated with the Great Pyrenees Club of America (GPCA) in December 1999. We are currently working toward formal AKC affiliation and endorsement.
All adoption fees go to defer foster and health care costs for dogs. Prior to adopting out a dog, we get it current on all vaccinations, treat them for heartworms (if needed), provide any necessary medical/surgical care, started on monthly heartworm and flee preventative, feed/house the dogs, and microchip each dog. Often the addoption fees often don't pay for the rescue costs of a dog. We are very dependent on donations to keep our rescue going.
