24-03-26 Bear is a handsome Samoyed who has come into our care from a breeder in search of a new start. He has found the transition into kennels a little overwhelming and has initially retreated into himself, but with a little time and reassurance he soon begins to come out of his shell and enjoys a gentle fuss.Bear loves other dogs and relies on them for company so will be looking for a home where there was another kind and confident resident dog to be his friend and companion.As Bear has never lived in a home before, he will need to learn about house training and the general basics of home life. He can already walk on a lead, but does get spooked easily, so will need to build up some confidence on walks.We are looking for an adult-only home for Bear so that he can relax and settle into his new surroundings without too much hustle and bustle. A calm and patient approach will help him adjust at his own pace.Bear has arrived with a granuloma on his front leg, which is healing well. Our vets will continue to monitor this during his stay to ensure he remains comfortable and ready for his new home.Bear is a lovely boy with a kind nature who clearly enjoys being around people. With a little time and understanding, he will make a wonderful and affectionate companion.Bear has a travel document.Bear has been given the Gift of Life by Paula Elliot
