Locals were baffled after discovering the brown animal after it was brought into an animal shelter in the city of Chelyabinsk in south-central Russia's Cheliabinsk Oblast region.
The animal stands on four legs and has thick brown fur.
But its face appears almost bear-like, with animal rights activists admitting they have "never seen anything like it before."
They are now hoping to find the animal's owners to find out what kind of breed of dog it is.
Vets estimate the dog bear to be around four-years-old and a male.
It has not yet been given a name as animal activists search for its home.
Animal activist, only named as Igor, said: "It has a difficult character, actually a little noxious.
"We had a tough time with it, while we were transporting it. The new owner would have to spend a lot of time in order to figure out individual approach to this dog."
"This is a metis chow, if you look at the pictures of dogs of this breed, everything will become clear. Now he does not give up, he passes social adaptation.

The dog has problems with the psyche, he is afraid of people and does not admit anyone, "Yulia Ivanchikova, a shelter worker, told Telefakt.
The chowchow genes might be the ones that make it look like a bear.
