My story

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

Foster to Adopt Program

Meet Xander, also known as Bear

Xander—affectionately called Bear—is a very sweet, two-year-old bully breed who truly just wants to be a loved household companion. He is house-trained, adores people (including kids!), and is a complete gentleman both in the car and on walks. Bear isn’t looking for trouble—he’s looking for a family.

Bear originally came into our rescue as a puppy after suffering severe injuries that appeared to be the result of a dog attack. Despite this traumatic start, he has grown into a gentle, loving boy. He spent over a year with a wonderful family, but was sadly returned when their older dog decided he no longer got along with Bear. Through no fault of his own, Bear found himself back in rescue and is now hoping for a second chance.

Bear has recently tested positive for heartworms and has begun treatment. He is currently living in a boarding facility and would love nothing more than a home of his own while he continues his recovery.

If you have room in your home—and your heart—please consider adopting this sweet, resilient boy. Bear has so much love to give and is ready to be someone’s loyal companion.
