Bear is a Big Beautiful Cuddle Bear. He wants to be your best friend and would prefer to never leave your side. He's happy to plop down beside you wherever that may be. He's very affectionate and wags his big bushy tail every time he greets you or when he gets some love. He's very chill in the house.

Bear is potty trained and goes to the door when he needs to go out. He knows sit, down and come and stay (most times). He got along fine with his foster dog sibling from day one. He doesn't love the crate he isn't destructive and doesn't have accidents in the house. He loves any meat treats and cheese but not a fan
of veggies.

Bear would love to have a backyard and humans that are around all day. He would make a most faithful companion to someone who has time to give him lots of attention and love.
Come meet your new best friend
