This is not the first time that Bear came back from adversity. We came across Bear at a Fox Terrier Rescue. If we have the story right his original owner died. Then the brother of the original owner kept him outside on a chain. He was then given over to a Terrier Rescue. He then found a new home. At his new home he kept digging under the fence, escaping, and fighting neighborhood dogs. He then found himself back at the Terrier Rescue. We love Bear, and are thrilled that Dr. Grigs was used to give him a new lease on life.

As for Bear’s Mom…it is unfortunate that people jump to ill founded conclusions. Bear’s Mom and I were under the assumption that any treatment for Bear would be costly. Bear was already rejecting the medicine that he was given, he had not eaten in days, and we did not expect him to make it.

We have three sons in college, and try to sacrifice for them. Our oldest was a Marine who was almost killed by an IED in Iraq. Our second graduated from West Point, is a 2nd Lt in the Army, and is about to deploy overseas. Bear’s Mom has done an amazing job with all of our sons.

Bear’s Mom is a mother that any son would find a blessing.

Thanks again to Dr. Griggs. We and Bear will always remember you.
