Summary:
"When B.J. Taylor first read about rescue
dog
Charlie
Bear
, she gazed at his photograph and knew right away he was the
dog
for her. She just hoped her husband, Roger, would agree. Thankfully, he did, and in the subsequent year, both B.J. and Roger soon discovered that
Charlie
Bear
was brought into their world for a very special reason-to teach them about life, love, and second chances.
Charlie
Bear
shares an intimate look at the first year in the life of a
dog
nearly labeled "unadoptable" by his foster mother due to his long list of behavioral issues. As he begins his new life,
Charlie
Bear
ferociously guards his food and toys, throws temper tantrums, and is sensitive to touch. Although B.J. doubts their sanity in adopting
Charlie
Bear
after he repeatedly attacks their other
dog
, Rex, she is determined to make it work for the sake of her husband, who has fallen in love. But when B.J.'s world begins to fall apart, she shares how time, patience, and faith helped her realize that
Charlie
Bear
was not the only one who needed a second chance-she did, too.
Charlie
Bear
offers a loving tribute to a rescue
dog
that eventually sheds his headstrong ways, becomes a loving member of a family, and ultimately changes three lives forever"--Back cover.
