Bernard (Bear)

My story

Meet Dotty Jo & Bernard (aka Bear)! Dotty Jo and Bernie Bear are a beautiful, bonded pair looking for a loving forever home where they can stay together. Their world was turned upside down when their owners sadly passed away, and they found themselves at the Jerome Shelter. When we heard their story, we knew we had to step in and keep them together — they had already lost so much, and we couldn’t bear to see them separated. About Dotty Jo: Dotty Jo is a sweet and gentle 6-year-old female Pitbull weighing about 60 pounds. She has a heart full of love to give and adores her people. She’s playful, loves her toys, and is always up for some treat time. About Bernie Bear: Bernie Bear (or just Bear to his friends!) is a 5-year-old male Australian Cattle Dog who weighs around 45 pounds. True to his breed, Bear is smart, loyal, and loves to stay close to those he trusts. His favorite thing in the world? A good rawhide to chew on! Together: This adorable duo is very well-behaved and fully potty trained. They are friendly with other dogs and are always ready to shower their people with affection. They both ride in the car, although they experience some anxiety during travel — something that patience, reassurance, and short practice trips can help with over time. We would love to see Dotty Jo and Bernie Bear find a home where they are cherished as much as they deserve. They have been through so much together and are ready to start their next chapter — together — with a family who will love them forever.
