Hi, my name is Bear. I am a playful, energetic pup who loves to run, play fetch and tug-o-war with my humans. I would love a big yard and a gentle, patient family to have adventures with. I am very food motivated and teachable and my favorite treats are liver, chicken and peanut butter. I know how to sit, lay down, come, and walk on a leash. I can't wait to find my fur-ever home!
