FULL TITLE: The dog that looks like a BEAR: Russian animal shelter slams 'irresponsible breeders' who bred a chow chow with a mystery long-snouted breed

An animal shelter has slammed 'irresponsible breeders' after a stray dog with the face resembling that of a bear was discovered living on the streets of Russia.

The odd-looking dog was brought into an animal shelter in Chelyabinsk in south-central Russia's Cheliabinsk Oblast region and has baffled locals who say they have 'never seen anything like it before'.

The stray dog, nicknamed Medvebaka from the Russian words for bear and dog, appears to have the body of a canine with a bear-like snout and head.

If saw that coming down the street would think it's a bear!

[Tax-chick]

Have you seen this dog?

[Tax-chick]

If they saw only the face ... the coat and body shape aren’t quite right.

Chelyabinsk?

The most toxic place on the planet.

Can we be certain it was a BREEDER responsible for this?/s

[ransomnote]

The Russians living in rural areas heavily contaminated with radioactive waste reported seeing “new kinds of animals” (animal mutations) so if not purely intentional breeding, there’s an alternative explanation right there.

Look here, BUB. I identify as a dog now, GOT IT?

So sad...I read more of the article, and the poor creature is so stressed and traumatized that he probably will not ever find a new owner.

I hate stories like that.

We don't have bear dogs like in Russia, but we do have lion dogs:

This peculiar half... er, I mean... tri-breed was brought into a shelter near Nashville TN. Authorities are searching for the owner, but fear the owner is jetsetting away somewhere, and doing so with a big footprint.

The other half being wolf would account for his non-approachableness. He probably wants to pack, maybe they should foster him with a large working breed home.

One wonders how he would respond to other animals.

[txhurl]

I’d take him.

It is getting to be a pretty confusing universe.
