My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Hello! My name is Benjamin Bear and I am a handsome 5 yr old male yellow Lab. My foster dad tells me that I am a really good boy, with a great face, and a loving heart.
I am up for adoption with my sister, Princess Xena, who is 4 years old. We are considered a 'bonded pair,' which means we will be adopted out together. Two are definitely better than one!

So far, since coming to our foster home, Princess Xena and I have settled down well and we love going out for walks! We used to be pretty chubby, but not anymore! We lost the extra weight and now we look great! I love to exercise and to walk a little more than my sister.

We are very good with other dogs, but I am a little shy and scared at first when new people are coming into the house. Once I get to know them, it is all good!

We are healthy and don't have any mobility issues. We are taking joint supplements because we are big dogs. I am about 107 lbs., my sister around 94 lbs. SCLRR took us to the vet recently and we had blood work done, been neutered/spayed, and we had our vaccines updated. We are all ready to go!

We are gentle and loving and we would be wonderful dogs for someone. My preference would be for my sister and me to go to a loving family where we get to go on a walk every day! It would also be nice if our new owner stayed home for part of the day, because we love being around people so much.

I am told that I am the stoic, protective older brother to Xena. If you can't find me in the house, I will most likely be snuggled up in the most random places: on the couch or most often in your bed where I know I am not supposed to be. I am great on leash and house trained.

If you are considering adopting two well-behaved, fun-loving, and easy-going Labrador Retrievers, please adopt Princess Xena and me, Benjamin Bear! If you are interested in making this Lab part of your family, please contact your SCLRR family representative. If you have not yet applied with us, please submit an online application to adopt; an SCLRR volunteer will then contact you. Please note that your homecheck must be approved in order for you to be put in touch with the dog's foster home.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Careful time, temperment testing and fostering with further evaluating to help adopters find the right match for their lifestyle and for the dog's needs is the hallmark of SCLRR. We consider the needs of both adopting family and of our rescue dogs.

The fostered Labradors can be visited for possible adoption at the individual dog's foster home by approved adopters.

Thorough information is provided along with a folder of such things as up to date vaccine records, spay/neuter certification, microchip registration information, pedigree and kennel registration if provided along with any other paperwork we might have. A terms of Adoption is filled out and signed, providing ownership to the adopter.

The adoption fee is $350 or $150 for a senior Lab (7 years and older). Any known medical needs a dog might have are taken care of by SCLRR prior to adoption.

SCLRR prides itself on our high standards of temperment testing, medical care given and our fair treatment of adopting families.
