Bear is not currently up for adoption at our shelter - instead we are helping his owner, Carolyn, by listing him as a Courtesy Listing in hopes we can help her find someone that will welcome Bear into their home! Carolyns contact info is down below for anyone potentially interested.
Meet Bear!
Bear is a 3-year-old English Mastiff born on January 20, 2023. He is neutered and up to date on his rabies vaccination. He is a big, lovable boy with plenty of energy and an even bigger heart. He absolutely loves attention, snuggling, and trying to sit in your lap—even though he does not realize how large he is!
Bear loves children and enjoys being around other animals. He gets along well with other dogs and especially loves cats. Once he feels comfortable with someone, he becomes incredibly loving, loyal, and affectionate and will treat you like part of his family.
Bear can be cautious when meeting new people and prefers to take his time getting to know them. He does not like unfamiliar people immediately reaching out to touch him, so calm and patient introductions are important. When he feels unsure, he may huff, puff, or give a low growl to communicate that he needs some space. He does not show his teeth and has never bitten or attacked anyone.
Bear would do best with a patient, understanding family who will respect his boundaries during introductions and give him time to adjust. Once he warms up, he is a sweet, cuddly, playful companion with so much love to give. He is looking for a home where he will receive plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and room for his big personality.
