My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Golden Retriever mix. male, 9 years.
Bear loves people of all ages and has been around everyone, from infants to the elderly!  This sweet boy is a watch dog at heart and will bark when people come over, but then settle down for pets.  He just wants people to know he’s there!  Bear likes to play fetch with his tennis ball, and will even chase the flying disc, but he is not a play all day kind of dog – a few tosses makes him happy.  He is not a very good retriever in that sense, although he does enjoy swimming. Bear is crate trained and has excellent house manners, he is house trained and will not bother your things – unless your things are a marrow bone, because those he will totally chew! Bear loves to go for car rides and in his youth he would run alongside a bike, but he is a little rusty now. He also has a large vocabulary and will get his favorite toy when asked. Bear requires a fenced yard and must be an only animal. He does have some prey drive and cannot live with other animals, including other dogs – it is just too much excitement for him, and someone with experience with reactive dogs may be the best home for him.

** If you are interested in adopting this dog, you must first complete an adoption application at http://peppertree.org/adoptapp.php. Or visit our site (http://peppertree.org/adoptlist.php) and learn about other Peppertree dogs. *Note: visual breed identification in dogs is unreliable so for most of the dogs we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each dog as an individual and will do our best to describe each of our dogs based on personality, not by breed label.
