Meet Bear!

Bear is a handsome, large, long-haired German Shepherd cross who certainly has both size and beauty on his side!

Bear arrived into our care alongside Nova, both looking for a lifeline. Now, this gorgeous boy is ready to begin his own journey towards finding a forever family and becoming someone's favourite family companion.

Bear is an excitable, affectionate and incredibly loving boy who has so much love to give. He loves to run around, enjoy his time outdoors and, much like his sister Nova, we believe he has spent much of his previous life living outside. One thing is for sure, Bear is absolutely irresistible when it comes to cuddles! His sweet, loving nature makes him a real softie, and we know he has the potential to make a wonderful companion in the right home.

What kind of home is Bear looking for?

Bear is a big boy with an equally big heart, but he will need a family who understands the breed and is prepared to help him navigate the outside world.

We are looking for an experienced German Shepherd home, ideally with previous breed experience, who is committed to continuing Bear's training and helping him build the confidence and skills he needs to thrive. Bear would benefit from a quieter, low-traffic home where someone is around for much of the day, giving him the time, consistency and reassurance he needs. Plenty of daily exercise, mental stimulation and enrichment will be essential to keep this active boy happy and fulfilled.

Bear can live with children aged 13 and over and may be suitable to live with the right large female dog, subject to careful introductions and compatibility. Unfortunately, Bear is not suitable to live with cats.

Above all, Bear needs a family who can see beyond his size and recognise the big softie underneath. With the right guidance, patience and commitment, we believe Bear has everything it takes to blossom into a wonderful family companion.
