The Baby Bear Medical Fund is used for dogs whose medical needs are beyond the ordinary. Bear showed us that Misha May is supposed to take care of each dog that shows up in the best way possible. He will always be remembered as a dog well worth knowing and a character unto himself.
The following dogs are some of the animals currently being rehabilitated by Misha May because they came from shelters where they were unable to get this care. KohKoh requires reconstructive surgery to remedy congenital defects. Rusty has undergone successfull surgery to repair one knee; the second knee will be attended to after his recovery. Sprout will undergo corrective surgery for an eye condition.
Other dogs who have already benefited from Bear's legacy are Wendall, Grey, Jack aka Utah, Smokey Joe aka Raven, Buddy, and numerous Katrina rescues with heartworm disease.
