*** UPDATE: BEAR HAS BEEN ADOPTED! ***
Some obsessions are dangerous. Bear is not one of them.
Meet Bear, a handsome 5-6 month old Golden Retriever/Poodle Mix (aka Goldendoodle) with a knack for stealing hearts and becoming the one thing you can't stop thinking about. At around 21 pounds, he's the perfect mix of playful adventure buddy and affectionate cuddle companion.
Bear loves spending time with his foster family, making new friends wherever he goes, and greeting every dog and human like a potential best friend. Whether he's tossing around his favorite toys, solving treat-filled puzzle games, or joining in on family activities, Bear approaches life with enthusiasm and joy. And when the excitement winds down, he's always ready to curl up beside you for some quality snuggle time.
This smart pup is both crate and house trained in his foster home and continues to make excellent
progress with his leash manners. He's kid-friendly, dog-friendly, and already knows commands like sit and stay. Cats are unknown. Because he's highly food-motivated and eager to please, Bear is a great candidate for continued training and learning new tricks. While he's generally a quiet boy, he's not afraid to use his voice to let you know what he needs, whether that's a potty break, a little protest about crate time, or simply a request for extra affection.
Bear would thrive in a home with an active family that enjoys playtime, outdoor adventures, and plenty of cuddles. Like any young puppy, he'll benefit from a patient and consistent adopter who can continue helping him grow into the amazing dog he's already becoming.
With his fluffy coat, sweet temperament, and irresistible charm, Bear isn't just looking for a home, he's looking for his forever family. Meet him once, and don't be surprised if he becomes your newest obsession.
