Bear

Meet Bear — your loyal, laid-back adventure buddy 🐾<br/>At 8 years young, this handsome German Shepherd mix has already lived quite a story and now he’s ready for his forever chapter. After losing his owner and ending up on a euthanasia list in California, Bear got a second chance and is now thriving in foster care in Colorado’s Western Slope, soaking up the good life and showing everyone just how special he is.<br/>Bear is the definition of a gentle soul. He’s easy on leash, takes treats softly, and is happiest enjoying the simple things - long walks, car rides, chewing on a good bone, and cozy naps. He loves being near his people and has a calm, affectionate presence that makes him an easy companion.<br/>He’s a social, people-loving dog who would do best in a home where someone is around often—work-from-home, retired, or a dog-friendly lifestyle would be ideal. A yard to relax in would be a big bonus.<br/>Bear would thrive as the only dog in the home so he can soak up all the attention. He continues to learn new routines in foster care and is treat-motivated, making him a great candidate for continued training. Having a space of his own, like a crate, helps him feel safe and settled.<br/>Bear is up-to-date on vaccinations and will come with some of his favorite things. He is not neutered. He also has a few minor, manageable health considerations, which his foster can happily discuss with interested adopters.<br/>Ready to meet Bear?
