I started to volunteer for basset hound rescue and when Xandy Bear was 10 months old we fostered and adopted a 10 month old wild child of a basset we named Huggie Bear. A year later we adopted this big old goofy guy who became Moosie Bear who sadly at 12 left us in May. Three Bears no more. A year later we added a 7 month old little girl we named wee Gracie Allen aka Homeland Security who keeps us safe from groundhogs and finally a year later we added my baby boy Clyde Kadiddlehopper who actually adopted me-imprinted on me like a baby duck when we fostered him and another little female pup, our first fostering success. My baby boy will be 4 this summer and I've nicknamed him Recliner because he's a VERY lazy boy.
