About Bear

Bear is eager about the world and connects well with people and other dogs. He does a great job on walks, enjoying the company of another dog if it’s available, but he doesn’t depend on canine company at home—he’s comfortable with or without a dog buddy around. Bear weighs about 65 pounds and lives up to his name, with a gentle, steady presence. There’s some debate about his breed; originally he was listed as a Flat-Coated Retriever, but a fan of Hovawarts convinced the rescue he fits that mold. Either way, Bear is out to win the hearts of his new family and will make a loyal companion. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
