Odin Bear Just a Sweet Boy

Odin Bear has the kind of face that makes you smile before he's even done anything. Then he does something goofy and you're completely done for! Maybe it's the long legs he's still figuring out how to coordinate, or perhaps it's the tail that seems to have a mind of its own. Whatever it is, this handsome boy approaches life with the enthusiasm of a puppy who genuinely believes every day is going to be the best day ever, and he has a way of making people fall for him fast.

Odin Bear is approximately 5 months old and weighs around 35 lbs. We believe he may be a German Shepherd/Bloodhound mix, but with rescue, breed and age can never be guaranteed. Between his floppy ears, impressive nose, and his uncanny ability to locate food before anyone else realizes it's nearby, we're willing to bet there's some hound mixed in there somewhere! Odin still has plenty of growing left to do and while we can't predict exactly how big he'll become, we do think he's going to grow into a pretty substantial boy. He's affectionate, playful, curious, and always interested in what everyone else is doing. He loves being included and has a happy, easygoing personality that makes him fun to be around. Whether he's carrying around a toy, investigating something new, or soaking up attention from his people, Odin seems to find joy in just about everything. He is also very food motivated, which makes him a great candidate for continued training. He's eager, engaged, and already enjoys learning new things, and he's learning to love playing with toys. He hasn't quite gotten the concept of "fetch" down yet, but he's a pretty cute dude when he's playing and when he does those big, dramatic pounces!

Odin has been great meeting other dogs and seems to genuinely enjoy making new friends. He met a small dog and was very sweet with him, offering little kisses and happily hanging out even though the other dog wasn't interested in playing. He also met several large dogs and was excited to interact with them, playing, bouncing around, and engaging with them. Overall, he did really well, and we think his confidence around larger dogs will continue to grow as he gets more experience. He's a social, friendly boy that could do well as an only dog or would likely enjoy having a playful canine buddy in the home. He also met a resident cat and was playful, giving play bows and even kisses. We do not know if he has ever lived in a home before with a cat, and if you have a cat in the home, we can arrange for him to have a sleepover with a cat upon request.

Ideal Home

Because Odin has typical puppy energy and is likely going to be a fairly large dog, we think he'd do best in a home with a backyard where he has room to run, play fetch, and stretch his legs. He's at that age where life is one big adventure and every day is an opportunity to learn something new.

Ongoing Health

Odin is up to date on all vetting, which includes DAPP with booster, Bordetella, and Rabies vaccines, multiple broad spectrum deworming treatments, and he has been microchipped. He is also receiving a 12-month heartworm preventative injection.

Training & Support

Odin is crate trained and is doing great learning where the appropriate potty places are. He's still very much a young puppy, so he'll need continued routine, consistency, and structure as he grows. Like all puppies, he's counting on his future family to continue helping him learn the ropes and become the best version of himself.
