About Bean

Hi, Bean here. He and his family were found abandoned in Mecca, surviving as best they could until rescue finally arrived. Out of seven puppies, only five were still with him and his partner, Sprout, but they were lucky enough to end up safe thanks to Desert Paws Sanctuary. Bean is a lively, playful dog who always wants to be in the thick of things. He’s happiest running around or soaking up as much love as possible from his people—cuddling is an all-time favorite. There’s an old injury in his past, nothing that slows him down, and surgery is lined up so he can feel his best soon. Despite everything, Bean stays upbeat. He greets each day ready for affection and new experiences, looking forward to finally finding a family who’ll welcome him with the same devotion he offers them. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
