Bear is exactly that - a lovable, fluffy white polar bear of a big guy looking for a foster or furever family who will treasure him for his many endearing qualities. A young boy, and purebred pyrenees, Bear has the famous fluffy coat with soulful, puppy-dog eyes and a perfectly sweet disposition. He loves playing with other dogs, doesn't mind cats, and is a definite people "person"! Bear happily accepts hugs and kisses, will lean into your legs for loving, likes going for walks on the leash, and is housetrained as well. His perfect family and forever lifestyle would include lots of walks where he can sniff to his heart's content, plenty of love and affection from his family, and maybe even a play pal to bound around and act silly with. If Bear's sweet face is speaking to you, he may just be the pyrfect fit for your family! - Written by K.P.

NYS Registered Rescue # RR102
Our goal is to assess every application on its own merits. Key considerations are: 1) the experience of the applicant with large breed dogs 2) children in the household or regularly visiting the household are ready for a large-breed dog who is a guardian by nature and 3) the sex of other dogs currently residing in the household to avoid same-sex aggression issues. For puppies under six months old, the applicant’s ability to socialize the puppy with older dogs is a priority.
We may consider fostering for some of our dogs who are in boarding. Please visit Fostering FAQfor an application and information about our fostering program.
If you can't foster or adopt at this time, please consider helping our Neediest Cases or making a tax-exempt donation by visiting our Donate page.
