Here is more about Kuma!

2-year-old, 50-pound German Shepherd mix

House-Trained: Yes – he will vocalize when he needs to go out
Crate-Trained: No

Other Dogs: Gets along well with other dogs – has a rowdy playstyle
Cats: Unknown
Kids: Has done well with older kids and enjoys the extra love and attention

Health: Sweet Kuma came to Pet Haven after having an imbedded chain surgically removed from his neck. The wound has healed, and his fur is growing back. For now, care should be given so that nothing that could cause friction is placed on the new scar tissue. Also, because of Kuma’s history, he would likely resist being on a tie-out while outside. A fenced yard is on his wish list as he loves to wander and explore! Additionally, he was prescribed antibiotics for 28 days to treat anaplasmosis, a tick-borne bacterial disease, that he was exposed to. He shows no sign of an active infection and the antibiotics are being taken simply as a precaution.

Kuma is an affectionate and happy boy who loves his humans and would love nothing more than to be at your side 24/7. He will happily lay quietly by your feet, cuddle on the couch, or follow you around the house. When you have to leave for a little while, he will vocalize his goodbye but once he hears the car leave, he settles down and awaits your return. At night, he loves to be near you and if he is not able to, he will talk to you to let you know that he would rather be at your side.

Kuma has just discovered plush toys and loves them! He also enjoys the company of another dog and loves to play. He has been separated from the other dogs in his foster home while his neck heals but offers conversation and kisses when the other dogs pass the baby gate. His foster has been letting him hang out with the rest of the pack as his neck is doing better and he really enjoys the canine company!

Kuma is a loving and gentle pup who had a rough start to life. He spent his early life outdoors and has truly come to cherish and crave the newfound attention of humans, the comfort of the couch and the freedom to move. His humans are his world, and he would love to become a part of a loving family!


His adoption fee includes spay/neuter, heartworm/Lyme test, all age-appropriate vaccinations (distemper, rabies, & Bordetella), HW and flea/tick preventative, and microchip implant and registration.

There is no guarantee of age and breed as a rescue animal's history is unknown. All ages and breeds are best guess.

Adoption fees INCLUDE a mandatory sales tax of 7.525%.

Due to post-adoption services provided, it is Pet Haven's policy to only place dogs into homes within a 75-mile radius of the Minneapolis, MN city center.
