Meet Bear, an 8 month old Shepherd mix with a big personality and an even bigger heart.
Bear is still very much a puppy and very much still growing. Like many young dogs his age, he is full of curiosity, energy, and enthusiasm for the world around him. He is incredibly treat motivated, which makes training both fun and effective, and he already knows how to sit.
Bear is a sweet, happy boy who genuinely enjoys interacting with people. He is eager to learn and wants to please, but he is still working on his manners, especially when it comes to jumping up in excitement. Because of this, Bear would do best in a home without small children while he continues to build his impulse control and polish his basic obedience skills.
With consistency, structure, and positive reinforcement, Bear has all the potential to grow into an incredibly well behaved and loyal companion. He is at a wonderful age for someone who enjoys training, bonding, and watching a young dog develop into their best self.
If you are looking for a smart, affectionate young dog and are ready to invest a little time in guiding a growing pup, Bear may be the perfect match.
