Meet Bean — a 3.5‑year‑old, 25 lb terrier mix with a heart full of love and a personality that lights up every room!<br/><br/>Quick Facts:<br/>Name: Bean<br/>Breed: Terrier Mix<br/>Age: 3.5 year old<br/>Weight: 25 lbs.<br/>House-Trained: Yes<br/>Crate-Trained: Yes<br/>Good with Dogs: Likely yes (hasn’t met any yet)<br/>Good with Cats: Yes<br/><br/>Good with Kids: Likely ok (hasn’t met any yet)<br/>Energy Level: Medium<br/>Fence Required: Yes, preferred<br/><br/>About Bean’s Breed:<br/>Our best guess is that Bean is a Terrier mixed breed. Terrier breeds are known for their spunky personalities, sharp intelligence, and lively curiosity. An ideal home for a terrier is one that provides plenty of mental stimulation, regular exercise, and clear, consistent boundaries. They thrive with families who appreciate their spirited nature and can offer both structure and play. A secure yard is often helpful for their exploratory tendencies, and they do best with owners who enjoy engaging with their dog—whether through training, playtime, or outdoor activities. With the right environment, terriers become devoted, joyful members of the family.<br/><br/>All About Bean:<br/><br/>Bean is house trained and crate trained, and while he may pace a little when you leave, he settles beautifully—especially with the TV or some music playing. He’s an explorer at heart, always looking for something interesting to investigate, so a secure fenced yard is ideal for his curious nature. Despite his adventurous streak, he stays close and comes back readily when called.<br/><br/>This happy‑go‑lucky boy loves everyone he meets and proudly takes on the role of household greeter. He hasn’t met kids yet, but his gentle, friendly nature suggests he’d do well with school‑aged children and older. Bean is a classic velcro pup—he wants to be right by your side, soaking up all the love and companionship he can get!<br/><br/>He hasn’t met dogs in his foster home yet, but with proper introductions, he’d likely do well. He’s curious but respectful of cats, and he adjusts his energy to match the room—playful like a puppy when it’s playtime, and a snuggly cuddle bug when it’s time to relax. He enjoys walks, has good leash manners, and loves picking through the toy box or bringing you a ball to start a game!<br/><br/>Bean is still settling in and learning the ropes. He’s responsive to “no,” working on not counter surfing or jumping up, and he only marked once when he first arrived. He may need a little time and patience to fully adjust, and he’d thrive with someone who’s home often or even with another dog of similar size to help him feel secure.<br/><br/>Bean’s Highlights:<br/><br/>3.5 years old, 25 lbs, terrier mix<br/>House trained & crate trained<br/>Velcro pup, loves being right by your side<br/>Curious explorer, needs a fenced yard<br/>Great with people, likely good with school‑aged kids<br/>Respectful of cats, likely good with dogs with introductions<br/>Playful & cuddly, matches your energy<br/>Good leash manners, loves walks<br/>Sweet, eager to please, and incredibly loving<br/><br/>Bean’s forever family will be getting a true LOVE BUG—a loyal, affectionate companion who wants nothing more than to explore the world a little, greet everyone warmly, and then curl up beside you to watch TV.
