At 14 years young, this neutered poodle mix named Bear has perfected the art of companionship. He’s calm, kindhearted, and hoping to spend his golden years in a home where he can relax, feel safe, and be cherished.
He isn’t looking for anything extravagant — just a soft bed, a warm spot in the sun, and humans who appreciate the simple joy of having a loyal friend by their side. In return, he offers quiet companionship, soft eyes full of gratitude, and the kind of steady love that makes every day feel a little lighter.
If you’re looking to open your heart to a senior who still has so much love to give, this gentle soul is ready to spend his retirement years with you. Bear comes with Sanctuary support so his health care needs are easily met. Bear is the perfect couch potato and will happily cuddle up with you for a movie marathon or a good nap in the sun. He's a low-key guy who just wants to hang out with his favorite people and maybe get some tasty treats along the way. He would prefer an adult household. A gentle friend would do nicely. Bear still has lots of love and kisses to give to the right person. Could that someone be you?

We require an adoption application and select potential adopters based on how well they meet the needs of the animal. A home visit is an essential part of the process prior to a trial placement. Animals are placed on a trial basis prior to finalizing the adoption. We do require an adoption contract that contains a provision for returning the animal to Friends of Pets if there are circumstances that requires the adopter to give up the pet.
All of our animals are spayed or neutered, vaccinated and microchipped prior to adoption. If a dental cleaning is needed that also is done prior to advertising the animal on our web page..

Go meet their pets
Our pets are available for viewing online at www.friendsofpets.org
Applications are screened to find the best fit for the needs of our cats and dogs and those applicants are then invited to meet the animal in-person and determine whether they want a trial placement. By taking care with applications we greatly reduce the number of animals returned to us.

More about this rescue
Friends of Pets (FOP) was established in 1989 and is a well-known and respected rescue group. FOP was formed to increase the rates of adoption and decrease the rates of euthanasia at the Anchorage Animal Control Center. We work to place rescued dogs and cats in loving life-long homes where the needs of the animal will be met. We rescue and place 100-150 animals per year.
We work to increase awareness of responsible pet ownership and the positive impact of spaying and neutering of pets. We participate in family-friendly events in the community (Kid's Day, Reading Rendezvous, etc) to educate the public on these issues.
We provide a spay/ neuter assistance program and are helping to underwrite 10 spay/neuters per month at Anchorage Animal Care and Control.
We are a 100% volunteer organization and depend on our volunteers to carry out our mission of making Anchorage a place where all animals are wanted, loved and cared for.
We always need volunteer help to cuddle kitties, walk dogs and assist at our fund-raising events!
