Meet Pear!

Hi, I’m Pear! I am a sweet dog looking for my forever home. Could that be with you?

My foster dad tells me I am a handsome and distinguished gentleman – have you seen my beautiful grey whiskers? I might be a little older than a puppy, but that doesn’t stop me! I love to go for long walks with my human. Sometimes we will even walk for 2 miles. Also, I might get a little excited around other animals when I am on my leash, but we are working on that! I generally like to stay close to my person. I love exploring our yard, and I really love to follow you around while we are outside. Can I tell you what my favorite thing to do is? I LOVE to roll around in the grass! It feels fantastic! My foster dad calls me a total ham while I roll around because I get so silly – its so much fun!

When I am not enjoying a good walk or a roll in the grass, I also like a little down time. I am a sucker for a good nap. My foster dad says I am VERY motivated by food – I LOVE chicken (who doesn’t?), but I really don’t like those green things called vegetables. I also do really well with a routine when it comes to meals, potty breaks, and bedtime. I caught onto my foster family’s work schedule very quickly, and I don’t have separation anxiety when they leave. But, I am very happy to greet them when they come home! My ideal home would include a yard (I need to roll around everyday!), and also a home where I am the only pet.

Please submit an application if I sound like the right fit for you. I would love to meet you!
