About Mr. Bear

Meet Mr. Bear, a lively bundle of joy at just 2 years old! This large boy weighs in at 64 lbs and has a playful spirit. Bear, along with his two sisters, was brought to us after being dumped in Warren County last year. He recently visited the vet for his neuter procedure, ensuring he won't be adding to the population of furry friends in need of homes. All of Bear's vaccinations are up to date, and he's microchipped with a clean bill of health. This energetic pup loves to romp around with other dogs, regardless of their size, and he’s great with children too. Bear does have a special need; he suffers from early-onset arthritis due to bone growth, but that doesn't slow him down! Could this charming boy be the furry companion you're looking for?
