In some mythology bears represent strength and courage. My foster mom thinks that s the same for me I m a little over a year old. When I was born my legs didn t work right. Living the first 9 months of my life in a cage didn t help anything either. It was hard for me to stand and walk but I didn t let that get me down. I managed ok without the use of my back legs. But then Underdog Rescue came along and took me into a foster home. I went into lots of weird places. They kept calling them vet visits . One day I took a really long nap and when I woke up I could move my back legs It was amazing Getting better was a slow process. I had to stay in a crate almost all day for a really long time (my foster mom said it was two months) It was really boring but I didn t let it get me down. After some time I was able walk And then run Oh how I love to run My foster mom says my knees are in great shape now almost perfect even. She says I m her little bear that was courageous and strong. She also says I m her snuggle bug. Now it s my favorite thing to play go for walks snuggle and get belly rubs and sing her the song of my people. (So I would do best in a home that doesn t have shared walls.) Kids are great for me and I m pretty social so even though I could be an only dog I d need someone who likes to go to dog play dates or take me to doggie daycare so I can see my friends. What do you think Do you want a snuggle bear all to yourself Many of our dogs are rescued from commercial breeders where they spent their lives getting comfort from their canine friends. In turn most require another companion dog in their forever home in order for them to feel safe. If you are interested in a particular dog and do not currently have a dog residing with you please understand that your home might not be the right fit for many of our dogs. ADOPTION EVENTS Please understand that all of our pets are in foster homes and sometimes life happens and the foster family cannot make it to their scheduled adoption event. If you are traveling from a far distance to meet a specific animal please email us to confirm attendance.

FOSTER CARE All of our animals are fostered in individual homes or doggie daycare facilities. While they are in our care they are part of our families and given lots of love. We work on training crate-training and socialization prior to adoption. Each animal s behavior is evaluated and we have a sense of its temperament and personality.
