Bear (FOSTERED IN MARYLAND)

My story

IDGSR Welcomes BEAR into the safety of the rescue!! THIS DOG IS FOSTERED IN MARYLAND & AVAILABLE FOR TRANSPORT ************** Howdy! My name is Bear & I'm an adorable 1yr old male German Shepherd mix. I am currently at a board & train program with Mason Dixon K9 in Maryland. When I complete my training I will be available for transport. Quick Facts: Age - 1yr old Home - home with a fenced in yard, no apartments or condos Kids - would do okay with older kids (10+) Dogs - great with other large dogs, both male & female Cats - NO cats Training - needs full range of obedience training 1. You may notice in my pictures that I have a bob-tail. Some person thought it would be a good idea to dock my tail when I was a puppy. Don't worry, I'm okay, I just have a bunny-butt now! 2. I am super friendly with both people & other dogs! You can see me interacting with lots of other rescue pups in my video. 3. I would love to be adopted by an active person or family who also has another dog for me to play with. Now that it's spring, I'd love to go hiking, swimming, exploring, anything active & outdoors! 4. I am house & crate trained! Big win-win! I do need to be trained in obedience, it will help me be a respectful young boy & will help us bond. 5. If you are looking for a fun loving, friendly, affectionate, athletic, energetic, and overall great new companion - I'm your guy! **SERIOUS APPLICANTS ONLY!
