True to his name, Bear is a big, lovable boy with a heart just as large as his size.
This Labrador x Rottweiler mix has a stunning dark brindle coat that makes him as striking as he is charming.
Bear is a sweet and affectionate dog, who loves spending time with people.
He enjoys pats, playtime and especially food, which makes him a motivated learner.
In fact, he already knows how to sit on command and is ready to keep learning with his future family.
Being a big boy, Bear has a big energy bank to match.
He’s always keen to explore the world, which means he can sometimes pull on the lead when out on walks.
He can also get excited and a little jumpy, and because he doesn’t always realise how big he is, he may come across as a bit rough. With continued training, structure and plenty of exercise, Bear will thrive and grow into a wonderful companion.️
Bear gets along with other dogs, but he can become excited when meeting them and may overwhelm smaller dogs, so we recommend a home with no small dogs.
Bear would also do best in a home with children aged 10 and over who can handle his bouncy personality.
Bear may be able to live with cats, but this would require slow introductions and ongoing supervision due to his size and energy.
When it comes to fun, Bear is always ready. He loves toys and is great at dropping them.
If you’re looking for a big, beautiful dog with lots of love to give, and you’re ready to help guide him with training and adventures, Bear could be the perfect addition to your family.
