My story

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

Hey, I'm Bear-a two-year-old shepherd mix with the brains, heart, and potential to be an incredible companion. But for some reason, I keep getting passed by. I've been here too long, and the shelter just isn't where I thrive. What I really need is a fresh start-and someone who's ready to see what I'm capable of.

I'm smart, intuitive, and deeply loyal once I feel that bond. I already know some training basics and love having a job to do-it gives me purpose and helps me feel connected. I'd do best with someone active, consistent, and ready to bring out the best in me through play, structure, and a little patience.

Yes, I've got an impressive vertical (I can jump a 6-foot fence), but with a secure setup-or just a good leash and someone who keeps me close-I'll be happy to stay right where I belong. Once I have a home and a person of my own, I won't be looking to go anywhere.

If you're ready for a smart, devoted, one-of-a-kind dog who's been waiting far too long to be chosen, I think you'll be glad you met me. Come to Woods in SLO to meet me, any day from 12-4pm!

More about this shelter

Woods Humane Society, Inc. is a nonprofit, privately funded organization dedicated to the humane care of unwanted animals in San Luis Obispo County. Our Staff, volunteers, and board of directors are dedicated to upholding our Mission and preserving the welfare of our present and future animals.

While we cooperate with the State Humane Association of California, the American Humane Association, and The Humane Society of the United States, Woods does not receive financial support from them. Only 20% of our revenues to care for the animals are generated by service fees, the other 80% is generated from fund-raising events, grants, wills, and mainly community donations.

Woods Humane Society is proud to be a leader among the nation’s humane organizations. Thanks to loyal and broad-based community support, and the diligent efforts of our dedicated staff and volunteers, Woods placement rate averages 98%, an outstanding achievement.

None of this work could be completed without the incredible support of our community and our wonderful volunteers.
