About Bear

Meet Bear! This charming 2-year-old Lab mix is eager to find his forever home. At first, Bear might be a bit uncertain around men, but once he feels your kindness, he becomes a lovable companion. He thrives on being included, whether that means relaxing at home or embarking on fun adventures. Bear gets along well with other dogs but truly prefers spending time with his humans. He can fit into a home as an only dog or with a few furry siblings. Walks can be a bit overwhelming for Bear due to all the noise and activity, but with patience and practice, he’s already improving. Though he’s had a few accidents in his crate while his foster is at work, he hasn’t had any inside the house. Bear loves to play fetch and gets super excited about snacks. His food motivation is something to behold; the moment he spots a treat, his eyes light up and he becomes utterly focused. He has a lovable way of catching treats, opening his mouth wide and catching them like a pro. This sweet, goofy boy is still learning about the world and gaining confidence. He would flourish in a patient family that can help him continue his journey. Could Bear be the best friend you’ve been searching for? Interested in Bear?
