My personality

My story

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

Meet Bear! Bear spent his whole life with a family. Unfortunately he was hit by a car and his family couldn’t afford the care needed to save him. A shelter stepped up to do the surgery, but in an overcrowded shelter, healing was not going well. Bear was pulled by Traveling Tails and has been in a foster home in Indianapolis ever since.

From his foster:
Bear is a one and a half year-old handsome Husky mix with eyes that will melt your heart. He weighs 58 lbs. He has the Husky personality – playful, friendly and super-smart. I have been fostering Bear for about 4 months as he recovers from a broken leg after being hit by a vehicle. It has been a tough journey and he has been amazing through all of it. His leg is healed. I have not yet let him go 100% on the leg. He needs a little more time to get the muscles back in his leg. We do go for about a mile walk twice a day. I also let hm play with other dogs for about 30 minutes.

Bear wants to be with his people - he will follow you from room to room or stay by your side when working or watching TV. He will let you know when he wants to play, go out to potty or just needs some loving. When he wants loving, he with just lay on you or at least try. None of these behaviors are all the time. He definitely has energy that will only get greater as his mobility improves.

Bear will thrive with an active family. He loves human interaction and should not be left alone for long periods of time every day. He would be best suited for a family who will regularly take him for hikes and walks in parks. He travels in cars well. A secure yard is a must. Bear would enjoy time outside, playing fetch with his family. Bear is getting better around moving cars , but still fears trucks. so the ideal home would be on a quiet street.

Bear is up to date on vaccines, neutered, and microchipped. Bear has been clear by the vets. He will have another set of x-rays in a few weeks to give him the all clear. Vetting will be covered by the rescue until medically cleared by the vet when he is healed. He is currently in Indianapolis but can be transported to his perfect adopter.
