Mary's Day Care For Dogs

Bear is a handsome purebred German Shepherd from excellent lines, searching for a special home to call his own.

He’s a smart, affectionate boy who would thrive with a calm single owner or couple, or a family with older children who can keep him busy with Kongs, puzzle games, and training challenges. Bear knows plenty of tricks and walks beautifully on lead — he loves learning and being part of the action. He could go to a home with a similar sized calm female dog.

When the fun is done, Bear is all about the cuddles. He’s a true snuggle bug who’d happily claim a spot right on your bed if you let him!

Bear is ready to share his big heart and loyal nature with the right family — could that be you? ❤️

Bear is 4 years old. For more information, please contact our adoption team on 0437 870 245 between the working hours of 10.00am to 3.00pm Mon-Sat. If there's no answer please text through with a little about your enquiry and we will get back to you.

Should we interfere?
Why not just let them “go for it”?
Nothing builds confidence like a great play session with a new or trusted friend.
Nothing ruins it faster than letting it go on for too long.

Play can turn quickly for many dogs. What starts as fun can shift and morph before we even realise.
If your dog has had limited exposure to other dogs or they are a quieter or less social dog, little and often is a good rule.

Over arousal and over stimulation are easy lines to cross. When that happens, things can change fast.
Reading the other dog’s body language becomes harder, they stop taking those small pauses to assess what’s happening, and they miss the moment the vibe has shifted.

If play only ends when someone collapses from exhaustion, growls, or gets a correction from another dog, that pattern can stick.
For some dogs, that can knock confidence and cause further issues going forward.

If your dog struggles with social interactions, little and often is the key.
Short, positive, well matched play sessions build far better social confidence.
Choose their playmates wisely.
