My story

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

Meet Beary Moose — Professional Goofball, Toy Enthusiast, and Snuggle Expert 🐻

Beary Moose is a 4-year-old “mystery mix” masterpiece. Best guesses? Boxer? Shepherd? Chow chow? A little bit of everything? All we know for sure is that he turned out perfect—complete with the most legendary underbite you’ve ever seen. It’s impossible not to smile when he flashes it. Impossible.

We fell head-over-heels for Beary Moose at the shelter for one very specific reason:
Every single time we walked past his kennel, he would sprint to grab his favorite toy, race back to the window, and proudly hold it up like, “Excuse me, do you SEE how good of a boy I am?”
Reader, we did see. And The Misfit Ranch immediately said, “Yep. That one’s coming with us.”

Beary Moose is:

🐶 Sweet and friendly with other dogs

🧸 Obsessed with toys (squeaky, plush, all of them—he has opinions)

🍪 Highly treat-motivated (training? Yes please)

💕 Equal parts cuddle bug and full-contact snuggle monster

At about 50–60 pounds, he’s the perfect size for couch cuddles without fully crushing your internal organs (mostly). He’s mostly house trained and totally crate trained, and—praise be—sleeps through the night in his crate with zero accidents. Hallelujah indeed.

Despite looking like he might shed enough to knit a sweater, Beary Moose is surprisingly low-shed (but not hypoallergenic, so get that Claritin ready if you have allergies!) and ridiculously soft and fluffy, like hugging a very polite cloud.

On leash, he can be a little pully—but only because the world is exciting and he wants to see everything. The good news? He rides like a dream in the car, making him fully adventure-ready for hikes, road trips, coffee runs, or just cruising with his head out the window living his best life.

Beary Moose is joyful, affectionate, hilarious, and bursting with love he’s ready to give to his forever family. If you’ve been looking for a dog who will bring you toys, steal your couch, and absolutely steal your heart…
Beary Moose is your guy.
