My story

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

Bear has been with us for over 130 days and is still looking for his forever home! Bear would do best in a home with structured routine that he would be able to learn and adapt to. He is a dog that seeks guidance, and would do best with an owner willing to dedicate more time to his training and keeping him active.
Bear does not do well with other dogs and cats and would do best as the only pet in the home. He has done well with older children but may be too rowdy for young kids.

Bear loves to be outside on walks or exploring in the shelter's yards. He has made a lot of progress with his leash walking and does better on a harness opposed to a collar. He is still working on his basic training but is extremely treat and toy motivated and has been making good progress! Bear loves rope and ball toys, and has a blast romping around the yard! Staff knows how awesome of a dog Bear can be and believe with the right routine and training he can be an even better pup. This boy has plenty of energy and would do great in a home looking for an adventure buddy!
If you are interested in Bear, or think he may be a good fit for your home, feel free to stop by and meet him and apply to adopt!

Bear is neutered, vaccinated and microchipped.
