About Bear

Meet Bear!

Bear is a sweet, approximately 14-week-old, 16lb German Shepherd mix with a heartwarming story. He and his siblings were found abandoned on the side of a Texas road, bravely dodging traffic until they could get help. Thankfully, they were rescued and are now looking for loving forever homes! Pups like Bear, who have overcome such challenges, truly deserve a second chance.

Ideal Home

Bear is looking for a home that can provide him with the love, stability, and patience he needs to thrive after his rough start.

Ongoing Health

Bear is neutered, up-to-date on all his age-appropriate vaccines, micro-chipped, and current on heartworm, flea, and tick prevention. He is deemed healthy for travel by a licensed veterinarian.

Training & Support

As a young puppy who has experienced hardship, Bear may benefit from continued socialization and positive reinforcement training to build his confidence and learn new things.
