About this Dog
Handsome Bear is a Wheaten Terrier mix who has been with us for over 1.5 years and is now about 4.5 years old. He originally came to us because his owner could no longer care for him. Bear has learned a lot of new rules, but he still needs a special home. Bear is a big boy, weighing around 65 lbs, and he won't walk on a leash. He is extremely strong and a secure fenced-in yard is essential and mandatory for him. He also needs a cat-free home, as he is NOT a fan of kitties. Bear has separation anxiety, he is used to someone being with him all the time. He would do best in a home where someone is around most of the time because he loves being close to his person. Bear will need a slow introduction to help him adjust to his new home and set him up for success. We are confident that the right home is out there, and we are patient, knowing he will find it. Until then, he is happy, safe, and content with us. If you think your home would be good for Bear – apply to adopt! All of our animals are examined by a veterinarian, given age-appropriate vaccinations, de-wormed, microchipped, spayed or neutered, heart-worm tested, and treated if necessary. Vet references and a home/family visit are required, and an adoption fee applies. Transport options are available within our area of operation, including Pennsylvania, the tri-state area, and New England. Please note we do not adopt animals into Canada. Visit www.pmarinc.org for more information, and to fill out an application.

Adopt Bear and Receive Bear's Fund
Adopting a pet can be expensive, and we're trying to help by fundraising for each individual in need of adoption. After verifying the adoption, Bear's new family will receive the funds that their pet has raised.
$0.0 is Bear's current balance
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. If you adopted the Bear, thank you for providing a home and a loving family!
Please begin the process of claiming Bear's contribution here.
For adoptions in which nokillnetwork.org was the matchmaker and we have contact information for both parties, we make every effort to contact the adopting family. For adoptions that were not facilitated by nokillnetwork.org, we still encourage the adopting family to claim the contribution by submitting the necessary information.
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. The adopting family will be required to provide proof of adoption between 4-6 weeks after adoption. This is to ensure that the home is a good match and Bear was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, Bear’s balance will be sent to the adopting family. Our staff provides instructions and help throughout this process.
We want the Bear’s balance to go to the adopting family as a way to say thank you for providing a loving home and to help with pet care expenses. In the unfortunate event we cannot contact them and verify the adoption, Bear’s balance will remain in our general fund. This fund may be used to match contributions made to other adoptable pets, incentify other adoption-related actions, promote our mission, or support the operating expenses of nokillnetwork.org. If you would like to make a direct contribution to nokillnetwork.org to help us help other pets in need, you can go here. We appreciate your generosity and help!
