Blue Bear is a lovable mastiff. He is now eleven years old and his health is no longer good.
At least he has a master to whom he has been loyal all his life. One day, however, something happens that Blue Bear doesn’t understand.
He travels to a strange place with his master.
Tears flow
The dog instinctively senses that something is wrong and barks loudly. His master is crying and why are they in this strange place anyway?
The bitter truth is that his owner can no longer look after Blue Bear and therefore has to leave him here at the animal shelter.
When his master finally drives away, Blue Bear literally bursts into tears. It is not the last time the faithful soul cries for his lost human.
A difficult candidate
Danielle Gletow, the shelter manager, is doing her best to find a foster home with a loved one for Blue Bear. However, this is not so easy.
At a hefty weight of almost 60 kilos, Blue Bear is quite a lump. That alone puts many people off.
Then there is his age, his health problems and the fact that he is emotionally very needy.
The livestream
Then Danielle has an idea. She uploads a livestream with the poor furry friend to Facebook.
This gives people the chance to see the good-natured and sad dog for themselves. The idea works.
Lots of people get in touch who are willing to help Blue Bear. Danielle’s choice falls on Madison. The woman lives nearby and agrees to take Blue Bear in.
At Madison’s
At Madison’s house, Blue Bear finds the attention he needs to forget his emotional pain. However, it is only a temporary stay.
In the meantime, Danielle makes an appointment with the vet.
Once it’s clear what medical issues need to be addressed for the senior, she’ll start looking for a long-term home for Blue Bear.
