My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Bear loves his toys! Bear is a playful 3-year-old Rottweiler / Terrier mix that is the champ of fetching tennis balls. He is always smiling and very loyal to his family. At 70lbs, he is strong walking on a leash, but has received professional training and knows many commands. He would enjoy a home with a fenced yard to play. He is sweet to everyone he meets and is friendly with most other dogs with a proper introduction. Bear is in a foster home so we can tell you a lot about his personality and excellent house manners. If you're looking for a best friend, please complete an adoption application to meet Bear at abandonedpetrescue.orgTo meet this adoptable pet, please fill out an adoption application at www.abandonedpetrescue.org and a team member will contact you to schedule an appointment.

More about this shelter

Abandoned Pet Rescue (APR) is one of the largest no-kill animal shelters in South Florida with the mission of rescuing and sheltering abandoned and abused cats and dogs with the goal of finding them new homes. APR's adoption center has about 150 cats and 30 dogs, all of which receive nutritious meals, veterinary care, enrichment and love.

APR, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, was founded in 1996 by a group of volunteers who were trapping, spaying and neutering feral cats and quickly realized the greater need to help abandoned pets and advocate for a no-kill community. APR is funded solely by generous donors and grants.
