application on file before meeting any of our mastiffs.

Meet our Polar Bear! This boy found himself homeless in a rural area and was rescued by good samaritans. His family had moved away and left him at the house, and some of the neighbors were threatening to shoot Polar. Thankfully he made some friends who made sure Polar found his way to GPMR.

Polar looks like a Mastiff/Pyrenees mix. He has the head of a Mastiff with a white haircoat. Whatever he is, he is wonderful! He was very underweight when we got him and tested positive for a tick illness. The Vet discovered his spleen looked large so we had an ultrasound done and everything looked normal so they think he just has a larger spleen than the average dog. He was also limping on a back leg and was diganosed with a torn CCL in his knee. He is having surgery to repair that and when he's recovered, he'll be ready for adoption.

Polar is one of those rare dogs where he is good with everything and everyone. He does great with kids of all ages as well as dogs and cats. We really haven't seen anyone that Polar doesn't like! He does have mild storm anxiety but nothing major, he just likes to go to his person or hide somewhere.

The one thing that Polar's family will need to be aware of is that he sheds a lot, much more than a Mastiff does. So he requires frequent brushing to get that hair off and someone who doesn't mind vaccuming daily. He also tries to run out any open doors, we are working on this but something that his family needs to be careful about especially if there are young kids in the home. He doesn't always come when called and was using to roaming a bit prior to coming to us.

Polar is almost ready for adoption, consider submitting an application today!

Polar is being fostered in Guthrie, OK.
