Bear's Story

Meet Bear: A Big-Hearted Brindle Beauty ?<br/><br/>Bear is a striking young Boxer mix with a gorgeous dark brindle coat and a personality as bold as his looks. Born around February 10, 2021, Bear is almost 5 years old and weighs about 60 lbs—full of energy and charm.<br/><br/>? Personality & Quirks:<br/>Bear is a people-loving pup who’s always eager for attention and affection. He’s not your typical chewer—but he does have a curious palate and has been known to sample rocks, sticks, and toys. His future family will need to keep a watchful eye to ensure he stays safe and avoids non-edible temptations.<br/><br/>? Activity & Environment:<br/>Bear thrives in a secure, fenced yard where he can run and play to his heart’s content. He’s high-energy and sometimes gets a little carried away with his enthusiasm, so dog parks and daycare aren’t the best fit. He’s happiest as an only dog, where he can soak up all the love and attention.<br/><br/>??????? Ideal Home:<br/>- Adults or families with children over 12<br/>- Experience with large, energetic dogs<br/>- A commitment to ongoing training and structure<br/>- A safe environment free of tempting chewables<br/><br/>Bear would flourish in a home that understands his playful spirit and is ready to guide him with patience and consistency. Obedience training will not only help him grow into his best self—it’ll be a wonderful bonding experience for his new family.<br/><br/>? Health & Vetting:<br/>Bear is:<br/>- Fully vetted<br/>- Up to date on vaccinations<br/>- Neutered and microchipped<br/>- Heartworm negative and on year-round preventative<br/><br/>?
