Bear Bryant
HI, I'M BEAR. I'M KIDS AND DOGS' FRIENDLY! Meet Bear - a big, handsome lovebug! This 2-3 year old Shepherd mix is around 70 pounds, but don't tell him--he's convinced he's a tiny lap dog. If you sit down, he'll happily squeeze in beside you, paws on your lap and his big head tucked into your arms for snuggles. Bear looks like he smiles all the time and his tail never stops wagging. he is such a happy boy and a joy to be around. Saved at the very last moment from Polk County Shelter by BarkVille Dog Rescue, this handsome boy is now ready for his happily-ever-after. He's smart as a whip and was professionally trained, so he perfectly knows his commands and it's such a pleasure to walk him on the leash. Bear enjoys daily walks, would love a nice backyard to explore, and is a great passenger on car rides. This sweet boy adores people and other dogs. He's house trained, crate trained (though he'd much prefer to be with you instead), fully vaccinated, and microchipped. Above all, he just wants to be close to his people and shower them with love. If you're looking for a big-hearted companion who will fill your days with joy, cuddles, and loyalty, this boy is waiting just for you! For more information about this wonderful boy, please email us at info@barkvilledogrescue.org.
