Meet Bear! 4 year old lab mix 63lbs My name is Bear… but my foster mom called me Bear Bear. My life didn’t start out easy. I lived outside, chained up. One day my family moved away and left me to fend for myself. A kind lady tried to help, but I had a large tumor that needed surgery and lots of care. That’s when my foster mom and Carmen’s Rescue stepped in to save me. I had my tumor removed (it was non cancerous!) and had spent the last three months healing, learning what love feels like, and finally living the life I deserve. Now? I’m thriving. I LOVE other dogs — I live with big dogs and small (even older!) dogs. I’m wonderful with people and soak up attention. I’m gentle — my foster human siblings (there are 4!) help feed me and take me out. I walk nicely on leash and I’ve become a great car rider! I’m okay in a crate, but I’d much rather be near my people. I do best in a gated room where I can still feel included. I may bark sometimes, but I listen well when I’m told to stop. I love being outside — especially if my people are out there with me. I’ve learned how to share, how to be patient, and most of all… how to love. Now I’m just waiting for a family who will take care of me for the rest of my life — the way I deserve. Interested in Bear? Stop in or give us a call to meet this sweet boy!
