About Bubba Bear

COURTESY POST FOR PRIVATE OWNER

Hi, my name is Bubba Bear and I’m looking for a special someone to accompany me on this thing called life.

I’m 6-years-old and weigh 52 pounds. I have a sweet, gentle disposition and a clever mind. As a border collie / cattle dog combo, I’m blessed with a high IQ that makes learning tricks and commands easy and fun! Though part of me loves being lazy and getting belly rubs, I was also built for adventure, so welcome outings, playing, scattered-treat games, recall games, fetching sticks, and enrichment toys.

I am a respectful housemate so you can trust me when I’m home alone. I’m healthy, up-to-date on vet care, and neutered. I’ve attended lots of training and can't wait to show you all my skills and tricks! A fenced yard is ideal for me and I prefer life in a single family home where I don't have to interact with lots of neighbors.

I have been with a lovely family for the past few years, but I had to put down my paw and kindly request a new home. You see, a little two-legged gremlin has invaded this place. To me, kids are loud, unpredictable and smelly and I prefer a home without them.

If you’d like a loyal best friend, I’d love to fill that role. I am good with calm dogs or older dogs, but steer clear of hyper ones (I put them in the same category as those little humans!). I love being a good boy and making my people laugh, smile, and go ‘ahhh’ when I snuggle them.

I can be your one and only or meet your resident dog to see if we can be friends! No cats or gremlins please. I am happiest in a small family unit where life is usually quiet and routine. Since I like to take my time getting to know people, you’d be doing me a solid if you tell strangers to keep their paws off me until I’m ready to be friends.

While there is no adoption fee, please give a donation of $50 or more to Animal Rescue Konnection.

For more information about me, call or text Anna and Jon ‪(617) 843-5205 or email zappasnewhome@gmail.com. (I’m also called Zappa!) Please tell them Animal Rescue Konnection (ARK) sent you!

Thank you! Love, Bubba Bear xo
