My story

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


Smokey Bear is one of a bonded pair (see Gemma’’s URL) https://www.adoptapet.com/pet/42834107-albuquerque-new-mexico-german-shepherd-dog-boxer-mix
If you are looking for a couple of sweet companions, they will win your heart! They are looking for an active family with a large yard or outdoor space because they are happy to forgo a walk and instead play with each other until they are exhausted! His bonded other half, Gemma, immediately fell in love when we rescued this abandoned pup at 8 weeks. He was an easy puppy to raise and a sweet boy who is shy and can be a little skittish until he gets to know you. He displays many of the herding characteristics, and is sensitive and loving. He has had no experience with small children and seems mystified by them, so he needs some gentle experience with them. He is not aggressive, but can be chatty when he is insecure or uncertain, but responds well to redirection. He lives to please his person or persons.
