16-Year-Old Dog Was Abandoned and No One Wanted to Adopt Him. Then THIS Happened…

Pets get abandoned for a number of reasons but it breaks your heart when it happens. One 16-year-old pooch named “Bear” was abandoned by his owners. His health was deteriorating and he was losing his will to live with every passing day.

Because of his age, nobody wanted to adopt him until a loving family dropped by the shelter and changed his life forever. They gave him all the food he wanted, a loving home, and more importantly, a loving family who could take care of him.

His kennel card listed that he was abandoned but no one wanted to adopt 16-year-old “Bear” that needed a family.
