About this Dog
Hello to all of my fellow Mastiff lovers. I would like to introduce myself. My name is Bear and I am the quintessential Mastiff mix of loyalty, playfulness, gentleness, and protectiveness. I would love to share my home with a human/s who know my breed well, as I am not a novice owner. I take my job seriously and want you to know when there is a shift in the environment that may need your attention. I am not a big barker but I am vigilant until you tell me that everything is ok. I enjoy my crate and it can be a place of calm if I start to take my job too seriously. I am completely house trained as well. My strengths: Smart - I know my 8 basic safety commands in varying capacities - Look, Touch, Sit, Down Stay, Come, Leave it, and Place. Playful - I love toys, running, jumping, and hanging with my people. Polite - I am polite on leash unless something fun comes my way like chickens or dogs. I can become cautious if I see strangers but I move along fine if you tell me everything's ok. Quiet - I am not a big barker and would prefer watching as things come and go in my environment. Loyal - I am the most trustworthy guy you will ever know once I know that you are a part of my pack. I am trusting and enjoy a cuddle once in a while. I will look for you and want to be with you always. Trusting - Once you belong to me, I am yours forever. I am a great sleeper and love my meals. I enjoy riding in cars. I enjoy long walks when the weather is not too hot. I think I would enjoy hiking a lot. Things I am working on: Commands - Perfecting my 8 safety commands. Trusting new things - The more places I go and the more you can let me watch from a distance, the more I can trust new places. Trusting new people - I need slow introductions with new people who are confident and want to have a relationship. I am not interested in casual interactions. I will do best if I know what you expect of me in these situations but I would prefer not to be pushed or "talked into" socializing. I will do better with no children or other pets in the home, as I have a hard time sharing the affection. I was not proofed with cats so I don't know how I feel about them. General Mastiff traits - Mastiffs are known for their gentle, calm, and loyal personalities, making them excellent family pets. They are also protective and courageous, exhibiting a natural instinct to guard their families and homes. Despite their imposing size, Mastiffs are often described as "gentle giants" due to their affectionate and patient nature. Here's a more detailed look at their personality traits: Loyal and Devoted: Mastiffs form strong bonds with their families and are known for their unwavering loyalty. Gentle and Affectionate: They are naturally gentle and affectionate, especially with their family members, and enjoy cuddling and close companionship. Calm and Patient: Mastiffs are generally calm and patient, making them suitable for households with children and other pets, though early socialization and training are still important. Protective and Courageous: They possess a natural instinct to protect their families and territory, making them excellent watchdogs. Intelligent and Eager to Please: Mastiffs are intelligent dogs that learn quickly and respond well to positive reinforcement training methods. Relatively Quiet: While they can be alert and watchful, they are not typically known for excessive barking. Can be Suspicious of Strangers: It's common for Mastiffs to be wary of strangers, but with proper socialization, they can learn to be more accepting.

Contribute to Bear's Dogecoin Stash!

100% of Bear's Dogecoin balance will be sent to whoever adopts Bear.
Adopt Bear and Receive Dogecoin
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. Dogecoin is digital currency that can be exchanged for cash, traded, or held as an investment (see the "What is Dogecoin" section below).
0.0 DOGE is Bear's current Dogecoin balance
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the Dogecoin. If you adopted the Bear, thank you for providing a home and a loving family!
Please begin the process of claiming Bear's Dogecoin 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 Dogecoin by submitting the necessary information.
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the Dogecoin. 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 Dogecoin balance will be sent to the adopting family. Our staff provides instructions and help throughout this process.
"The fun and friendly internet currency."
Dogecoin sets itself apart from other digital currencies with an amazing, vibrant community made up of friendly folks just like you. Dogecoin is a decentralized, peer-to-peer digital currency that enables you to easily send money online.
Learn more about it on youtube or at dogecoin.com.
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 Dogecoin 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!
