ADOPTED
I adopted Bear from Hope 5 years ago when the Clifton Park shelter closed at the mall. We quickly became fast friends. Bear is a big guy (20 lbs) but he’s a sturdy dude. Bear sleeps at the foot of my bed every night and doesn’t approach me until he sees that I am waking up. He loves to sit on my lap while watching TV. He even has his own favorite shows, anything with animals or cartoons. Bear has HIV but is otherwise healthy.
