In his early years, Bear was diagnosed with obsessive-compulsive disorder. This resulted in him being unable to mingle freely with other dogs. Unfortunately, his former owners decided to abandon him because of this.
Thankfully, though, Bear was soon taken in by the University of the Sunshine Coast's (USC) Detection Dogs for Conservation program who adopt rescue dogs and train them to track koalas that are in need of rescue. His high energy and obsession with playing came in real handy, and the animal learned fast. He was soon taught to recognize the scent of koalas' fur. Bear was also trained to drop silently to the ground at the base of a tree whenever he detected the smell of the koalas so he doesn’t disturb the habitat while also giving his team the signal to rescue the animal.
