Bear

Bear is a 10-month-old, 53-pound Labrador Retriever mix brimming with love, personality, and youthful enthusiasm. This handsome boy is incredibly sweet and friendly, getting along wonderfully with dogs, cats, and children. Bear truly enjoys being around everyone and is happiest when he has company. He loves to run, play, and burn off energy, so his future family should be prepared to provide plenty of exercise and mental stimulation. A home with another playful dog is highly preferred, or a doggy daycare would be an excellent outlet for him. Bear is house-trained but not yet crate trained.

Ideal Home

Bear needs an active family that understands he's still very much a puppy at heart. A fenced yard is a must, and electric or underground fences are not accepted. A home with another playful dog is highly preferred.

Ongoing Health

Bear is fully vetted, neutered, up to date on vaccinations, and kept on heartworm and flea prevention.

Training & Support

Bear is house-trained but not yet crate trained. He does have food-related resource guarding, which is limited to feeding situations. He must be fed separately from other dogs. His adopters should be committed to managing feeding time appropriately and continuing positive reinforcement training to help him build confidence and trust. With proper management, this behavior tends to diminish and disappear.
