Bear is a quiet, 8-year-old Labrador/Pit Bull mix with a moderate activity level and a deep love for the company of other dogs. He's on the larger side, weighing around 55 lbs, and is house trained as well as comfortable on leash and in a crate. Early in life, Bear missed out on socialization, so he tends to be shy and cautious around new people. He won't ever become an outgoing greeter, but he does form close bonds with those he trusts over time. Bear thrives in a peaceful, calm home—rowdy spaces or young children make him anxious, but teens with gentle energy would be fine. While he can't live with cats, he happily welcomes canine friends and would love to have another dog as a companion. Bear's ideal adopter is patient, compassionate, and wants to truly help a dog work through fearfulness at his own pace. If you have a securely fenced yard and a heart for a dog like Bear, he might just become your loyal homebody. Start your journey together! Apply now.
