He loves tracking down smelly treats wherever you hide them-he is an expert at "scent work games in the home and while out on walks!
Brown Bear is fully house-trained and has quickly gotten up to speed with house rules and obedience training. He already knows several obedience skills and is working on several more with his fosters. He is very motivated to make his people happy!
