My story

Please contact ADOPTION (adopt@doggieharmony.org) for more information about this pet.Meet Bear — Your Loyal, Fluffy Shadow Looking for a soft, snuggly sidekick with the smarts of a Shepherd and the sass of a Husky? Meet Bear—a big, lovable bundle of fluff who’s as loyal as he is charming. Part Husky, part Shepherd, 100% Good Boy, Bear is intelligent, inquisitive, and eager to please. He’s got excellent recall, thrives in training, and loves learning new things. Whether you’re into hiking trails or long walks around the neighborhood, Bear is the kind of dog who wants to be by your side for it all. He aced his training classes, made friends with every dog and staff member he met, and would do wonderfully in a home with another pup—or as your one-and-only. His energy would be a great match for an active single, couple, or family… but he’s also the kind of soul who’d be perfectly content curling up with a retiree on a quiet afternoon. And let’s talk cuddles: Bear doesn’t just love affection—he asks for it. He’ll gently climb into your lap like the oversized baby he is, soaking up all the love you have to give. * Good with other dogs * Loves hiking, walking, learning * Fully vetted * Sweet, social, and lap-sized in spirit Ready to meet Bear and fall in love? This boy is more than just fluff—he’s the total package. * Age: 2 years * Weight: 60 lbs * Temperament: Gets along with other dogs and older sturdy kids * Training: Housetrained, crate-trained, obedience-trained * Vetting: neutered, up-to-date on vaccines, heartworm negative * Adoption Fee:  $275 * Questions? Email kbstine@emory.edu  To ensure we're meeting both pet and adopters' needs, we ask potential adopters to complete an Adoption Application (www.bit.ly/DH-Adoption) for caretakers to review. Once your application is approved, we will bring the adoptable pet to your home for a preliminary visit. We are 100% donation-funded and our fees are equivalent to (or less than) the cost to fully vet a new dog yourself. Please expect an adoption fee of $300; some of our urgent or long-term dogs have discounted fees.  June 23, 2025, 3:36 pm

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Bear, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
