Bernard's Story

Bernard came to us from the SPCA when he was found abandoned in his former home. While we are just getting to know him, he is a playful and cuddly guy who is working on his leash manners and developing trust in people again. This sweet Aussie mix is searching for his forever family. He's a playful boy who adores toys, enjoys romping in the snow, and would thrive with someone excited to teach him new tricks and help him shine. While he is dog friendly, he prefers his friends to be laidback.Please submit an application at http://helpinghoundsdogrescue.org A processed application is required to visit the rescue.
