"Although I have heard people say I am not the prettiest dog they have ever seen, I hear them secretly whisper that I have an awesome personality!"Bear is a large 1-year-old neutered chocolate Labrador retriever-terrier mix.
“I am as sweet as a Teddy Bear! I am a very outgoing guy who loves to run and play.
“I enjoy having my belly rubbed. Please make sure you have the time to spend with me when I come home with you because I adore human affection!
“I would love to go on daily walks with you or have a fenced in yard to run and play in. I would also benefit from attending obedience classes with you where we can learn lots of neat things together! The staff recommends you crate me when I come home with you to help with my housebreaking and also to keep me and your things safe while you are away from home.
“The staff feels I would do well with children of all ages, as long as they treat me nicely. I should probably go to a home with no cats because I like to bark and chase them. I seem to do well with other dogs as long as we are introduced properly.
“If you are searching for a sweet and lovable guy to share your home with please ask to see me today!”
