Story
\Please note this dog is NOT an official Underdog dog, and you will be connected with the person who has the dog. Please Contact (Current Owner of Dog):  Rachel Wickstrom; 541-633-6955; rachelwickstrom@gmail.com MEET BEAR #20!! Bear is a beautiful  Portuguese Water Dog born on July 15, 2024, in Boise, Idaho, and currently living in Scottsdale, Arizona, who is searching for the right experienced home to help him become the confident, balanced dog he has the potential to be. He is leash trained, rides well in the car, loves toys and playing fetch, and is both affectionate and highly intelligent. Bear absolutely adores adults and thrives on human connection, enjoying snuggling just as much as going for walks or car rides. He gets along well with other dogs and currently lives peacefully with a 3-year-old female Portuguese Water Dog, and he also attends dog daycare without issues. However, Bear does not do well with children and should be placed in an adult-only home with a calm, consistent environment. His early life included a lack of proper training, structure, and socialization, which has contributed to insecurity, anxiety, and some reactive behaviors when he feels overwhelmed or unsure. Despite this, a professional trainer has described Bear as one of the most trainable dogs she has worked with, and he responds best when given clear leadership, patience, and consistency. He needs a home that is not overly busy, with people who understand dog behavior and are committed to continuing his training with a qualified professional. Bear is not broken—he is a sensitive, smart, and loving young dog who is scared and confused from instability, but with the right guidance he will thrive. There is no rehoming fee, but his future family must be financially and emotionally prepared to support his training and long-term wellbeing. With the right person or couple, Bear will be an incredibly loyal, affectionate, and devoted companion. If you are interested in meeting this dog, please visit our website for our online application www.underdogaz.com  PLEASE NOTE: This dog is courtesy posted for another individual or Rescue.

Story
Bear is an 18-month-old purebred Portuguese Water Dog. He is neutered and up to date on vaccines. Loves to snuggle, doesn’t know how big he is, likes car rides and walks and playing with fellow PWD in the home. Bear would do well with someone who has experience with dogs and dog training. He would prefer a household that doesn't have a lot of coming, and going, or chaos. He needs a consistent, loving home. He needs someone who understands that and can be patient and compassionate to his needs to help him transition successfully to his loving forever home. Bear is trained in basic commands. He can be reactive and mouthy. He needs structured, consistent training. At his first home, he was not properly trained or well socialized. He experiences some anxiety and insecurity. He needs a patient, loving leader to help guide him and offer him some security and confidence.
