I'm Bear, a very sweet mellow boy who's a little on the older side, but I'm still a wonderful companion who would love to join your family. In my foster home, I've gotten along well with several female dogs, cats, and kids. I came from a situation where I was chained outside to a tree for years, and there must have been a man who didn't treat me very nice--so I'm still a little shy around men. Now I'd just love to be petted, brushed, and treated with affection--I'll be your happy friend in return. I hope someone will think I deserve a better life than what I had for all those years at the end of a chain. Your love could make a world of difference to me!

Special Needs: Bear has had some of his teeth removed. He has an enlarged heart, which may lead to congestive heart failure later in life, but his condition has remained steady for a couple of years :-) He still is a happy dog who deserves a loving home. His vision and hearing are not 100%; sometimes sudden movements catch him off guard, so a calm home might be best for him.
