Original: Bernie came from a no-kill shelter in PA where he was a resident for about a year. MAESSR was notified that he was in the shelter and brought him into a foster home. He is really glad to be in a home setting.
Bernie has some hearing loss but it does not hinder him in any way. So far, he has been just like any other dog. The only difference is that he usually does not respond if his back is to you.
Bernie has a wonderful, sweet temperament. He wants to be your shadow…actually if he could be closer than your shadow, he would be happier. He gets along great with other dogs and older children. An obedience class would really be a great way to bond with Bernie. He could use some practice on his commands.
The picture you are seeing of Bernie shows where he has had a fatty tumor removed. That is why he has a patch of fur missing on his back.
Are you looking for someone who just wants to be loved? Bernie is the one for you!!!
Update: Bernie went with his new family!!!
