Happy 12th Birthday Bear!!!! This big boy has brought so much joy into John & I’s lives.  We adopted him from the Champaign County Humane Society last June after his owner had passed away (To see Bear’s first blog post, CLICK HERE).  Although these aren’t the highest quality photos, here’s a collection of some of my favorite photos of the baby Bear and what his days typically include.  He is 12 years old today in human years which in dog years means he is 89 years old!!! And if you can’t tell by these photos, he is the liveliest 89 year old I know!

We tried to get Bear a Bears jersey… the XXL dog size still didn’t quite fit right….

Bear was a big fan of all holidays this year aside from Easter (he was embarrassed to wear the bunny ears).

Thunderstorms are NOT! Bear is incredibly needy during storms and usually wants to be on top of me or requires me to be touching him at all times.German Shepherd Husky Malamute Mix Photos

He also has some other strange spots he likes to lay…
