My story

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

Please read entire description. Bear's adoption fee is $175. If interested, please complete an application on our website at www.pawswapofgreaterlafayette.com/adopting. 



 



Bear is nearly 4 years old and weighs about 50 pounds. He is an Australian Shepherd looking for a new home. Bear has grown up around kids and has always lived with a dog buddy (Molly, also up for adoption.) He has never been around cats.



 



Bear has had some limited experience inside a house and has primarily been outside in recent months. His owner reports no problems when he has been inside. We have no doubt he would adjust to life in the house and want that for him. We feel a fenced in yard would be crucial for this boy. Bear knows a few commands, but tends to jump up when excited. Bear loves splashing in a kiddie pool and chasing bubbles in the summer. Bear is a very friendly boy and has been a very good companion.



 



Bear will need one grooming appointment and one vet appointment to be fully brought up to date and included in his adoption fee of $175. Upon adoption. Bear is neutered and will be up to date on vaccines, heartworm testing, and a microchip. If interested, please complete an application on our website at www.pawswapofgreaterlafayette.com/adopting. One application works for all of our dogs.

More about this rescue

We are a rescue/ rhoming service that provides education and assistance for owners in our community to keep pets in their home. When that is not an option or we come across animals in need, we will take them into our foster-based program, work with them, seek all necessary vetting, and find them the perfect home.
