Bear (23-143 D) Mixed Breed St Johns, MI

Say hello to Bear! Bear has a few things he'd like you to know about him.

I crave hugs, cuddles, kisses, snuggles and snoozes on the couch with my person. Any form of affection, words of praise, I will soak right up just like sunshine! Despite my earlier, poor life with humans who didn't care much about me, I really love ALL people. No one told me I am too big to be a lap dog. There's just more of me to love you!

My perfect family would be older children and adults since I sometimes don't realize what a big dude I am. I think 74 pounds is just right! I love feline friends a bit too much, so I'm told it would be best in a home without them, as well as the only dog in the home. I just deserve all the love I think!!

My foster mom says I have made great progress learning to walk on a leash. I respond to treats and all of these words: "nice walking", "good boy", "wait", "sit", and "down". I adore car rides and am the perfect backseat passenger! I don't even care if we go nowhere special. Being in a car is just so fun with my little ears flapping in the wind.

Indoors I excel at "sit." I am very patient and quiet. I am so well-behaved indoors, non-destructive, potty and crate trained. I don't beg when humans eat their dinner, and I have manners to know I don't counter surf. I enjoy stuffed squeaky toys, hard Nylabones or Kongs to chew, and balls to chase in a yard. I recently discovered chasing a frisbee in fun too. A few rounds of play in the yard will tire me out for awhile. I am not a high energy dog, but enjoy some play in the day to keep from boredom. I am mostly a pretty chill dude.

I would absolutely love a fenced yard with space from neighbors or a country home with lots of land to enjoy with my humans. I come when my foster mom says, "Bear, come" or shakes the treat bag. I want nothing more than to please my humans. I put myself to bed in my crate and sleep without a peep all night. I am usually pretty excited when my humans get up in the morning. Once I do my morning routine of potty and breakfast, I am ready to chill on the couch for awhile. I hope my lifestyle fits with yours, and you give me a chance to meet.
