About Bear

Meet Bear! If you're looking for a happy, handsome best friend who is always ready for an adventure, Bear might be your guy. Bear is a 2-year-old male chocolate Labrador who came to the rescue when his previous owner could no longer care for him. He embodies everything you'd expect from a young lab—friendly, outgoing, and full of energy. He’s convinced that everyone he meets is a potential friend! Bear loves car rides, adventures, and playing fetch. His enthusiasm would be a great fit for an active family that can include him in their fun. Despite his spirited personality, he’s surprisingly quiet and rarely barks. Like many young Labs, Bear is still honing his manners. While he can be jumpy and energetic, he responds well to commands like 'sit' and comes when called. With continued training and consistent guidance, he will undoubtedly become an amazing companion. Currently, Bear lives peacefully with a small female dog, cats, and an older male dog. He gets along well with everyone, though his youthful energy can sometimes be overwhelming for his older canine buddy. For this reason, he would do best in a home with school-aged children or older. Bear is neutered and up-to-date on all of his vaccinations. Now he just needs a family to give him the love, adventures, and guidance he deserves. Interested families must make two trips to meet Bear at his foster home in Lancaster County. The first trip should include all family members to ensure a good match, and the second is to bring him home. Click apply to start the adoption process.
