Great Pyrenees / Anatolian Shepherd : : Male (neutered) : : Adult : : Large
Bear is a farm dog who was surrendered by his family because the family did
not feel they could take the dog on their travels with them. Bear is a
handsome, all white, Pyr mix (mostly Pyr) with a dense, luscious fur.
Bear gets along with everyone, even the little terrier he is fostering with.
Bear and the terrier have a fun game of chase, altho Bear deliberately lets
the little one win. Bear does like to get into a shouting match with the
other large male in foster area over who is the biggest and baddest. The
foster tells them they both are the biggest and baddest, like all moms do,
so that seems to work. Bear is the Alan Alda type, who has no desire to be
top dog, altho is not terribly submissive either. When he first arrived at
the foster's he was hand shy. Now, he comes right up for his share of the
petting and treats. He used to be awfully difficult to catch to put the leash
on. He walks fine and does not resist, he just moves fast. Now, he actually
will come to you (eventually). The foster mom had a dickens of time getting
him to load in the back of her truck and found out accidentally that he
considers himself a member of the family, not the hired hand. He walked
around to the door and stood. Being a mom, she opened the door, and he
hopped right in and laid on the back seat. This farm boy is a pet, a good
pet. It has been discovered Bear does not like small children. Because he was not kept on preventative, Bear was Heartworm positive. He has gone through the treatment at the vet and is recuperating. We like to give him the full four weeks at rest. He will be fully recovered and available on April 23rd. This big, ole boy is raring to go.
