Jasper Habibi Bear
You may have heard about our Habibi Bear breed. These dogs excel in therapy work. So where did the Habibi Bear originate from? What makes this dog an ideal companion for those requiring emotional support? This guide will discuss why it’s the perfect dog for those with disabilities and trauma. We’ll explain why our adoption process is one you can trust.

What Is the Habibi Bear?

The Habibi Bear is a descendant of the Bichon breed, which originated in the Mediterranean. Habibi means “my beloved” in Arabic, and the dogs get the bear part of their name because they resemble a soft teddy bear. The breed’s story was born 34 years ago out of a need for a service dog for families and children living with autism and emotional trauma. What began with breeding Schnoodles evolved into breeding Confetti Schnoodles. Using a process of scientific genetics and hybridization, the breed was infused over time. It was in an attempt to correct flaws and inject characteristics. The result was the Habibi Bear-a gentle and intuitive therapy dog. Habibi Bear dogs are bred with small litters each year and no in-breeding. It has allowed the process to hone in on characteristics and traits and ensure genetic diversity for healthy dogs.
