Hi there, I’m Bear — a handsome black-and-white Chiweenie / Black Lab mix with a big personality packed into my 30-pound frame. 🐾🖤🤍 I’m about 2 years old, and once you get to know me, you’ll see I’ve got equal parts energy, confidence, and affection to share.
I’m a total pro for baths and nail trims (no drama here!), and I get along great with cats, dogs of all sizes, and the elderly. I absolutely adore children and love to hop around with them! I’m a high-energy guy who loves to check everything out 👀—running, playing, and exploring are some of my favorite things. Snow days? Yes, please! ❄️ I’ve got a bit of an alpha personality, but I’m also smart and responsive. I do really well with clicker training, which makes learning new things fun and easy for both of us.
I can be a little shy at first, but don’t worry—give me some gentle reassurance, a little patience, and a few yummy treats, and I’ll be your best friend in no time. 💕 Once I warm up, I’m incredibly affectionate and generous with kisses. I also love car rides 🚗 and make a great travel buddy. If you’re looking for an energetic, loving companion who’s ready to run, play, cuddle, and ride shotgun on life’s adventures, I just might be your guy. 📞 Call the shelter at 479-394-5682 to learn more about me or come meet me in person — I can’t wait to make your day a little brighter! 🐶✨ **************** All animals at HSO are current on their vaccinations and will be spayed/neutered prior to adoption. If not already spayed/neutered, there may be a short delay between when you select this pet and when they are ready to go home.
Breed and age are determined based on observable physical traits. Actual lineage and birth date are rarely known.
Adoption Fees: -$60 for cats -$60 for dogs over 6 years -$80 for dogs 6 months old to 6 years -$100 for puppies up to 6 months
Come visit our pets Tuesday-Saturday, 10am-2pm.

When you decide to adopt a pet, we charge a fee to cover some of our costs. (Except for 2 employees, all others are volunteers!) If there is any problem with your adopted pet, call us to work out a solution. Occasionally, we do take adopted pets back, but very seldom. This is why visiting our shelter is so important! We are willing to work with you! And we appreciate referrals!
