Update: Baby Bear is full of life and his energy is now that of a young puppy who needs an outlet, guidance, and training. It is so good to see a dog full of himself after being deathly ill. we need to address behavioral issues regarding resource guarding, as that is a concern right now. currently he is recommended only for experienced doctors and one willing to consult with a trainer. ******* Baby Bear was brought to us by his family because he was sick. They had never taken him into a vet, and that was the first thing we did, after he had been signed over to us. at the Animal Emergency Clinic, he was diagnosed with Parvovirus in addition to having a heavy load of parasites, and dehydration and emaciation. This boy was in rough shape! 24 hours at the emergency hospital, followed by three days at Altavista Animal Clinic, has made a huge difference for him, and he is now back at the shelter where we are treating him like the special little boy he truly is. We are helping him gain weight, and feel good about being alive! For a dog who was sick, he is pretty social, and is willing to let us make friends with him. If you are a German Shepherd lover, this might be just the dog for…
