Great to hear Bear has a forever home to call his own now! I’ve enjoyed reading about his antics and hope the updates will continue! Well done foster Colgans!
June 13, 2012 at 10:13 pm #110009sarahpcorcoranMemberHi Bear’s new family here. He was a star in the car on way home even though over 2 hours. Sussed out the house garden and cats fairly quickly, cats are still bit unsure of him but not too bothered. He tried sleeping on my son’s bed much to his delight at bed time but mean Mammy has him back in the sitting room now where he is out for the count after his big day.

They look so happy together even on their 1st day,thank you so much for giving Bear such a stunning, happy home.
June 14, 2012 at 4:49 pm #109958MutleyMemberI laughed at Tara’s comment! Fabulous place for Bear, so much space to run and company too! PS "mean Mammy", Bear will be a fixture on your son’s bed in no time!!
June 17, 2012 at 6:27 pm #110072sarahpcorcoranMemberBear is getting on great he has discovered that if he holds back a bit on the bounding puppy approach the cats will be more amicable towards him. Although one of our cats favourite spot for annoying the dogs has been ruined now due to bear discovering how to climb the ladder. Bear is a quick learner he was jumping up a lot and nipping at the start but we have shown the kids just to block him and ignore him when he is doing it, as he will be able to knock them over with his size in no time but in only a few days it has almost stopped and he has adjusted on how to play with smaller kids with the help of Ophelia to show him the way.

June 18, 2012 at 10:43 am #110083DID RescueKeymasterFantastic photos on the slide you can imagine Tom saying " just watch me and do exactly what I do and You will be fine"
He looks really happy and settled already which is what you love to see.June 21, 2012 at 3:11 pm #110133ColganFamilyMemberStraight from the Colgan Training School!! That’s where Bear learned to climb ladders. The trampoline is the FAVOURITE playground in this house and you are NOBODY!!! unless you can make it up the stepladder to join in. But it’s absolutely hilarious to hear that Bear took his new found skill to his new life!!! He looks fantastic and really happy. Thank you so much for the updates and the fab photos. It makes my day to keep track of my fosters.
Still missing you, Bear!!!July 1, 2012 at 8:04 pm #110285sarahpcorcoranMemberFeels like Bear here forever, he has so settled in so well only after 2 weeks. He weighed in at 19kg today so he is definately going to be a buster.
DSCF1326.JPGJuly 2, 2012 at 4:29 pm #110311ColganFamilyMemberEver the trampoline-lover!! Great to see you, Bear – and your gorgeous human sis and bro. Its lovely to know you are bringing as much joy and fun to your forever family as you did to us. Keep well and happy!
Thor and Cas say "hi"July 22, 2012 at 9:16 pm #110617sarahpcorcoranMemberBear here our family has extended with the arrival of Jim my new bro, he was very tiny when he came first wasn’t sure what to do with him but he has grown so much in 2 weeks we are now having a great time tearing around and playing together and Ophelia has taken on the mammy role. Jim was from an unwanted litter of shepards that owner was going to drown until a neighbour of ours heard and managed to find homes for them all, and knowing we had a soft spot for shepards knew we wouldn’t be hard to convince.
DSCF1441.JPGJuly 23, 2012 at 7:56 am #110618ColganFamilyMemberOh Bear, how wonderful for you. Not only a big sis but a new little bro too. Jim looks absolutely GORGEOUS and you and Ophelia are obviously taking great care of him. Best of luck to you all. Still missing you here but you sure look happy where you are.
July 23, 2012 at 9:13 pm #110647DID RescueKeymasterWow little Jim is really in luck…… a new Mum and a big brother.
He looks so tiny and content all snuggled up.
It makes such a difference when there are other dogs, settling in is so much easier for everyone.
Best of luck with the latest addition
Is there room for any more???August 2, 2012 at 10:14 pm #110812sarahpcorcoranMemberBear got neutered yesterday but no bother to him back tearing around the place today. So many kittens for rehoming in the vets we ended up bringing home 2 new little buddys – we haven’t decided on any names for them yet as my little girl wanted a female but there was none there at the time, so we need a unisex name for our tabby and white boy who she has decided is a girl.

I am not one bit surprised that you bounced back so quickly from your op. You were one of the least self-indulgent little guys we ever had. Great to hear from you. Still missing you.
