Bear

Bear's ideal home

This handsome boy is Bear! He has now started his search for his forever family and is looking for adopters who can handle a larger, strong dog. Bear is very sweet and loves a cuddle on the sofa, especially after a fun day out exploring. He will need to learn some manners as he loves people so much he will jump up for kisses, he is hopeful to find a family who have just as much desire to teach him new skills, as he does to learn. While Bear is a lot of fun to be around, he can also become overwhelmed with excitement at times. When he’s having these big feelings, Bear can resort to grabbing his lead or something close by. We feel that he would be best suited to a home, with patient adopters who can provide him with a calm routine. Due to his sometimes boisterous behaviours, we feel that any children in his new home should be 14+ and used to a bigger, bouncier dog. Bear loves to say hello to other dogs but can be a bit much for some dogs so a home with no other pets would be ideal. As Bear is a strong boy on the lead we need any potential adopters to feel comfortable holding him when out and about, a good sized garden area would also be super for him as he can have a run about to help burn off some of that Labrador energy. He will need his new family to be around most of the day at the beginning to help him get used to his new surroundings and help him adjust to his new life.

Could you be Bear's perfect match?

Bear is a fantastic 3 year old Labrador that will bring a big burst of life and love to the right home. He would really benefit from adopters who enjoy training and have an active lifestyle so he can go on regular sniffy walks. Bear jumps into the car perfectly but doesn't enjoy longer journeys, so close by walking areas would suit him best. Staying true to his breed, Bear loves his food so he can get a little too excited when being handed a treat, he would benefit from eating in food-based enrichment toys like Kongs, and destruction boxes. He’s also a big fan of his toys and will happily carry one of his favourites around with him. He can get overstimulated if the game becomes too exciting so calmer and more controlled games are best for him.
