A Bear in the house

A couple weeks ago we saw a photo of a very old and sad looking dog at the La Plata County Humane Society. He was still there this weekend so today we went to meet him. His name is Bear and he is so sweet. We just couldn't leave him at the shelter so we adopted him. He is a 10 year old Norwegian Elkhound. He is very easy going and sweet and spends most of the time asleep.


We are all so happy that we could give the old guy a home. At the same time we feel bad that we couldn't adopt his companion, Fallon. Bear and Fallon came into the shelter together. Their owners were moving and couldn't take the dogs. Fallon is also 10 years and very sweet. Hopefully she can find a home soon. If we could adopt Fallon we would but 4 dogs would just be too much.

  1. Abby - this is just awesome. I'm sure that Bear will be very happy with you. What a kind and generous thing to do. I'm sure Fallon will find a home quickly too.
