Panda Bear is a 3-year-old Australian Shepherd who, until recently, only knew life in a pen. He came from a breeder surrender alongside a large group of Aussies, but now he’s getting his chance to be a real pet. What stands out most about Panda Bear is how quickly he chose to make up for lost time. He’s outgoing, social, and loves everyone he meets—including kids. Panda Bear has a playful side, with bursts of zoomies and a signature move: the bear-hug, where he gently wraps his front paws around you. He’s thriving in foster care, learning quickly about housetraining, indoor life, and all the perks of a soft couch. He does well with other dogs and gets along with cats in his foster home. Panda Bear will be happiest in an active household, somewhere he can be part of the action and join in on outdoor adventures, but he’s just as content to chill out for a movie night. Neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations, he’s ready to start his next chapter. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
