Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hello friends. My name is Bernard. A wise elder in my pack once told me my name means “thee abandoned one with a sweet soul and sad eyes” and yes, this is true. I have made it quite clear to my new friends here at the shelter that I have been abused in the past. Unfortunately, no one has taken the time to love me, or teach me anything either. Let’s just say I have had a hard luck life so far. But I am ready to turn over a new leaf and l love my new friends here… Humans and dogs alike! Even the cats that live here are my friends! I see all the other dogs I live with go to homes, but I’m still here waiting for a family of my own. Why doesn’t anyone ever ask to meet me? It only took me a little while to warm up to the good folks here at Family Dogs, and I think I could warm up to you even sooner! I even spent today greeting strangers in the lobby! I keep my crate clean at night, and I haven’t had an accident in the lobby yet, so there is a good chance that I am housebroken. At this point in time I’m still a little bit nervous so a gentle family would suit me best. Please, I ask you politely to take the time to look me in the eyes, and find it in your heart to give me the love I deserve. Xoxoxo-Bernard 3 years old-65lbs. My adoption fee is $160 and includes; neuter, microchip, 5 week Training Class, free veterinary exam (SE Portland/Milwaukie area) ,1 month pet health insurance, leash/collar, food sample, toy & Treat packet.
