Here's what the humans have to say about me:
An adoption application on BEAR can be found at the following link: http://wp.me/P73YMd-1h
Please email the completed application to weatherley.woofriver@gmail.com
Please submit an application AND do NOT also contact the shelter. You will be contacting both the adoption coordinator and the marketing director, who do not see each other's emails. This causes confusion.
BEAR is a handsome as they come! He is just over a year old and 130 lbs!!! Luckily BEAR is a gentle giant. He lives in a foster home with a senior lab girl. They have a blast playing, but he also listens when she says she doesn't want to play any more. BEAR has done well with every single dog he's met. We aren't sure about kitty cats. He also lives in a foster home with young child; they are best buds! However he is a big guy who can inadvertently knock over any small child just walking by. BEAR is crate trained and knows not to potty in the house. He is a calm passenger on car rides and is happy to go just about anywhere. BEAR is as sweet as can be and loved by all who meet him. His absolute favorite thing in the world is cuddling. He is certain that he is a lap dog. BEAR is going to make his forever family's rottie dreams come true!
Even though BEAR is friendly and kind he is very large. For this reason BEAR is not available to home with children under 10 years old UNLESS they have large breed experience.
BEAR is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on all vaccinations.
His $450 adoption fee includes interstate health certificate and transport to the Midwest.
An adoption application for BEAR can be found at the following link: http://wp.me/P73YMd-1h
Please email the completed application to weatherley.woofriver@gmail.com. It typically takes us around 5 business days to process an application. We will reach out to you as soon as your application is processed.
All of our dogs start their journey in Memphis, Tennessee where they remain in loving foster families until they are adopted. Once adopted, they travel via one of our transport partners to their new forever homes. We use Alpha Dog Pet Transport for our New England, Nashville, and Knoxville adoptions (https://alphadogtransport.com) and The Road Home Pet Transport for our Midwest adopters (https://www.facebook.com/roadhomepettransport).
Breed selection is done in conjunction with two local vets and is not to be considered a guarantee but rather a well-educated decision from well qualified staff.
Due to the extremely high volume of inquiries we receive, we ask that you request, complete, and submit an application before asking additional questions. We try very hard to include all pertinent information in our bios. We are excited to help you find your new family member. However, Woof River is 100% volunteer operated. We want to spend our time saving dogs and assisting those adopters who have taken the time to complete an application. Thank you for understanding.
