Our Bear

I saw him at the shelter while dropping off donations. he had been there two months already. His previous owners decided he wasn't worth the $75 fee to get him back.  After taking him for a walk we realized there were some hip problems and maybe that's why he was still there. I don't know what it was about him but we had to have him. We adopted him, fixed his hip and he was as good as new. We had him 7 years. he was worth every penny we spent on him.

We miss his loud snoring every night. The way he would lay in a door way, then roll onto his back while we tried to get through the door. This was so he could have his chest scratched or belly rubbed. Every time he was happy, he would show it by diving face first into the carpet, roll onto his back, all four legs up in the air and wiggle around.  Bear made friends with everyone he met. whenever he had the chance he would visit the neighbors and they always had treats ready. Our whole block new him by name.  I don't know why his first family didn't want him back. I do know they missed out on a fantastic companion, and faithful pet.
