Additional info:

Grizzly is a very sweet and gentle boy. But you wouldn't know it by the way he hid in his kennel at the shelter. Poor guy. Now that he's taken his freedom ride and is away from all the other dogs barking, he just wants to cuddle next to you.
He is still nervous and unsure and may shy away from people and go hide if he feels unsafe. He is undersocialized so we do not recommend him for kids right now. Grizzly is not yet comfortable on leash but is learning, so he needs someone patient to work on that with him. He is super smart and picks things up easily. He knows how to shake hands. He is good with other dogs and has generally shown no signs of aggression, although he can be picky with some dogs. If he decides to take a dislike to a particular dog he may bully them so caution is recommended when introducing him to new dogs. He needs a gentle, patient and experienced owner. Grizzly may be the type of dog who will run when afraid so we should consider him a potential escape artist. He needs a secure environment. He is ready for his forever home right now.
