Morsels of Goodness: Bear

Just a few weeks ago, they were the infamous 'feral, KOA pups.' After being presumably dumped and consequently picked up at a KOA campground, a group of feral puppies - fifteen to be exact - were taken to Prescott Animal Control. Originally, United Animal Friends PAC liasons and volunteers were extremely worried for their survival, but as soon as word got out that we needed volunteers to help socialize the pups, well - you all came to the rescue. Just a few weeks passed before ALL FIFTEEN puppies were placed in foster homes and/or adopted! This month's Morsel of Goodness features the story of Bear, the very last of the feral pups to be adopted. Bear was a very, very frightened and timid young fella when we met him, but according to new dad, Jeff, he's re-adjusting splendidly now! (Special thanks to Barb C. for facilitating this adoption! Nice work, Barb!)

". . . he is just the happiest little pup. He sleeps all night but right away I get him out of his crate in the morning and hussle him outside so he can do his business. He then always wants hugs and kisses before running around outside and sniffing everything. He found a rawhide the other day and it is his new best chew thing! Yesterday he stayed in the outside kennel for the morning. I let him out at lunch to run around. I went inside to grab a bite to eat and when I came back out to find him he had gone back into the kennel all on his own - he likes it in there . . . all nestled in the straw and chewing his rawhide. He spent the afternoon inside the mudroom as it was raining heavily and I wanted him to stay dry! He is quite the snuggly pup - loves hugs and kisses!"
