Bear's Story
Let me tell you about baby Bear. First, his good qualities: He is the cutest little redhead there ever was. He is a playful , energetic, food-driven, sweet little man. He enjoys car rides, loves walks, and playing ball by himself or with a human. It has truly been a joy to watch Bear blossom.<br/><br/>Now for his qualities that need some work: Undoubtedly, when you see his face for the first time in person, you're going to want to pet him and love on him. But that is not something that Bear enjoys from strangers. His trust has to be earned. He experienced some trauma before he came to the rescue, and he has no problem letting you know when he is not ready to be touched. He will bite when feeling stressed. And although he is small, he can hurt you. Bear's new family will need to give him the time he needs to decompress. And they will need to learn his cues about where and when he wants to be petted. Like a cat, he enjoys his sleeping spots and does not like to be petted while sleeping. He lets you know when he wants to be petted and will rub his body on your foot to let you know he's feeling comfortable with you. <br/><br/>Because of his reactivity, we think Bear would do best in a home with children who are old enough to understand how to respect his needs. Just know that Bear is going to be a project. There will undoubtedly be some bites and tears along the way, but it will be accompanied with the satisfaction of having this little ball of fluff turn into a loving, sweet companion. Bear has his quirks, like we all do, and they will take months to overcome, but he is so worth itFill out an adoption application directly on our website at www.lionelslegacy.org
