What's your dog’s favorite toy and/or go-to treat?

Bear’s favorite toys are his little stuffed chipmunks. It’s surprising that he hasn’t been able to tear them open yet, although he has pulled off their tails and chewed off some ears. He is not picky when it comes to treats, and he loves carrots!

What is your dog's most unique quality?

My little guy loves everyone! I always say he can’t hold his licker! He also cornered a possum in my fenced in backyard and wouldn’t back off until I pulled him away. He’s very persistent when he gets his mind on something!

Why should your dog be America’s Favorite?

Besides being absolutely adorable, Bear loves to snuggle. He’s so loving, and yet very entertaining as well. He’s the perfect combination of love and sass!!
