Bear is a genuine old-fashioned German Shepherd Dog, a large young man of about 1 1/2 years of age, just a big puppy with a pretty good sense of humor. As you can see from his photos, Bear has really good focus, but also knows when to kick back and relax with a yawn. He loves playing ball although his style is more reminiscent of a freight train than a gazelle. Bear would really like to live with another dog, preferably a spirited girl, so that he has someone to play and run with to burn off some of his youthful energy. He has proven to be very respectful of older dogs, but might pester them to play with him. Cats don't seem to hold any special interest for Bear. Because Bear still has the physical exuberance of a puppy, he would like a home with an experienced shepherd owner and if there are children, they should be teenagers and pretty sturdy kids.
Bear is neutered and up to date on all his vaccines. He is house and crate-trained and microchipped. Please send us your application to meet this very handsome boy.
