More: Bear came to me as a rescue. When I met him It surprised me that even after all he had been through, he still had so much trust and love in his heart. I have watched him grow from a dog afraid to walk down the street, to one that practically drags me to the dog park. He loves anything edible (green beans especially), butt scratches, and his golden retriever best friend, Duke. We still have some things to work on, but he is like a whole new dog in so many ways. I couldn’t be more grateful to have him in my life.
