After more than 100 days in care, sweet-natured Bagel (Animal ID: 158565) is more than ready to find the patient, loving home he deserves.

This large, soft-hearted boy (30kg) may take a little time to feel confident in new situations, but once he knows he’s safe, his playful and goofy personality truly shines. As highlighted on his Pet of the Week poster , Bagel loves making people smile with his personality and enjoys “stretching his legs and getting his sillies out.”

Beneath his initial shyness is a loyal companion just waiting to blossom.

🌿 What Bagel Loves

• Relaxed walks where he can explore at his own pace
• Backyard time to stretch his legs
• Gentle sunshine naps
• Sharing laughs once he feels comfortable

🏡 The Home Bagel Needs

Bagel is looking for:

• A patient human who is mostly home, to continue helping him build confidence (as noted on his poster)
• An adults and older teens only household
• A calm, understanding environment where he can grow through positive reinforcement training

He can get along with some dogs, but he would prefer not to share his home with another dog. He will thrive best as your one-and-only furry companion.

🎓 A Work in Progress – and Worth It

Bagel is still learning that the world can be a safe place. With ongoing training, consistency, and encouragement, he will reward his family with loyalty, affection, and that beautifully goofy grin.
