Description:
Meet Bear, Bear is an amazing dog. He is very affectionate, intelligent and handsome. He loves to be part of a family and needs attention to thrive. He would not do well in a home where he was left alone for long hours or he was ignored. His favorite activity is tummy rubs. He sits nice for treats. He will bounce a rubber ball and catch it to entertain himself. He can also dribble a small soccer ball with his front paws. He loves to go on walks and is a great jogging partner, especially now in the cool weather. He currently gets a 4 mile run every morning and a long walk in the afternoon. He gets along great with other dogs and enjoys playing in our back yard with our resident dogs. It would be preferable if he had a home with a fenced in yard, so he could expend his energy in this way. He also enjoys the dog park and meeting new dogs and people. He is an absolute pleasure to take with us. He rides nicely in a vehicle. We take him to the office. He lies quietly at our feet while we work, and he greets our clients appropriately. He loves chewing on raw hides. He doesn’t chew anything inappropriately. He is completely housetrained and has never had an accident. He doesn’t bark to go out. We just take him out on a regular schedule. He is trusted with free roam of the house. He likes to sleep on the bed with us. He would be fine around kids of all ages. But, he would do best in a home without cats. Please feel free to fill out an Adoption Application on our main website, www.midwestanimalrescue.org, by clicking on the Form/Applications link under Website Features. Thank You! When you adopt a pet from Midwest Animal Rescue and Services, your adoption fee covers: Microchip and registration, Core Vaccines including Rabies, Distemper and bordetella, age appropriate heartworm testing or FeLV-FIV testing, sterilization, heartworm/flea-tick prevention and deworming while in foster care. Long Distance Adoptions: Animals who are not fully vaccinated and altered are not eligible for long distance adoption. We require a meet of the pet prior to adoption, which means coming to MARS. We do not transport to potential adopters. How to learn more about a pet: Complete the application (click on the button above) to start our process for adopting or fostering a MARS Pet. Adoption fees are non-negotiable and can be paid by cashier's check, money order or credit card. We do not accept personal checks. Post Adoption: Any issues that arise after adoption are the full responsibility of the adopter after the finalization of adoption. We highly recommend Pet Insurance. Adoption fees are only part of the expense of owning a pet, so we ask you to consider the costs for the life of the pet before adoption. We recommend pet insurance. Pet Breeds: The pet you are viewing is a rescued pet which is most often from an animal control facility or Shelter partner. The breed(s) listed are our best guess and are in no way guaranteed. If you choose to DNA test your adopted pet, test results may vary from company to company and our breed guess may not be reflected in those results as it is just that, our best guess without knowing a pet’s full history.
