My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
My name is Papa Bear and I am a friendly and easy going 9 year old. I was rescued from the Shelter by Martina Animal Rescue and am currently in boarding while I wait for a foster or adopter.
.
The shelter said I am easy to handle. I like going for walks and love getting pets, affection and attention. 🥰 I came in with a female who was rescued. I also ignored the other dogs I passed at the shelter, so would likely do okay with another larger dog with proper introductions.
Since I'm an older gentleman, I'm very easy going, no "stay off my lawn" energy from me and none of those headaches a puppy causes! I adore being pet and brushed. Any pampering is fine by me! I am a gentle soul who enjoys a stroll around the park 🌳 or lounging around the house.
If you are looking for a best friend and are considering giving me a home for my twilight years, you can meet me or learn more about me by contacting Martina Animal Rescue at martinaanimalrescue@yahoo.com or text Laura at 916-996-5777. I'm located in Walnut Creek, CA.
Application, home check and adoption fee required.

A one week trial is also an option to see if it is a good fit.

More about this rescue
We are a non-profit rescue organization who helps rescue dogs and sometimes other animals from Contra Costa Animal Services as well as other local shelters; usually the scared, overlooked or often the ones off the euthanasia list. We also rescue dogs who have been injured or abandoned trying to keep them from having to go into the shelter after looking for an owner. We then place them in foster homes to decompress and learn to be part of a family as well as learn structure and boundaries. If needed and we can, we also have trainers that help prepare our dogs for adoption.
