About Bear

Bear is a 10-month-old, 53-pound Labrador Retriever mix who is bursting with love, personality, and youthful exuberance! This handsome boy is incredibly sweet and friendly, and he gets along wonderfully with dogs, cats, and children. Bear has never shown aggression toward people or other animals and truly enjoys being around everyone. He loves making new friends and is happiest when he has company, whether that's his human family or canine companions.

Ideal Home

Bear is looking for an active family that understands he's still very much a puppy at heart. A home with another playful dog is highly preferred, or a doggy daycare would be an excellent outlet for him to help keep him happy and engaged. Yards MUST be adequately and fully fenced; we do not accept electric or underground fences.

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 exercise, structure, and love, he will reward his family with endless affection, loyalty, and entertainment.

Transportation

Bear is currently being fostered in Texas but is able to go anywhere in the States and even in Canada to the right home. Transport can be arranged for approved adopters.
