My personality

My story

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

Bear – A Loyal Heart Looking for Home Again
Some dogs leave paw prints on your heart, and Bear is one of them. This 73-lb, 8-year-old German Shepherd was once adopted from our shelter years ago, but through no fault of his own, he’s found himself back here after his family had to move. Now, he’s hoping for a second chance at the forever home he truly deserves.
Bear is the definition of gentle and loving. He’s been an inside dog, knows his house manners, and is said to be house-trained. He’s great with other dogs, and from what we’ve been told, he’s also wonderful with kids—the kind of dog who will rest his big head in your lap and soak up all the love you have to give.
At 8 years old, Bear is the perfect mix of laid-back companion and loyal protector. He still has plenty of energy for adventures, but he’s also a cuddle expert who just wants to be by your side. He hasn’t met any cats, so we’re unsure how he’d feel about feline friends.
Bear’s adoption fee is only $40, a small price for a lifetime of love and devotion. If you’re looking for a best friend who already knows the ropes of being a great family dog, Bear is waiting for you. Call 256-362-5856 to schedule a time to meet this sweet boy—he’s ready to fill your home with love once again.

More about this shelter

We are the Animal Control Facility for the City of Talladega. We provide animal control services for the City of Talladega. We work with lots of rescues all over the US and Canada. We do some local adoptions but don't have many people come in locally looking to adopt. A lot of our pets are transferred to our rescue partners. We do accept donations of cleaning supplies, dry cat/kitten, dry dog/puppy food, cat litter, and chew toys. We are also always looking for short term foster homes for our pets going to rescues. Usually it's only for a 2-4 week period before the pet leaves for his/her rescue. If you are interested feel free to contact us at 256-362-5856
