🌟 Meet the magnificent Rory, the gentle giant who has a heart full of love and a spirit of resilience! This big teddy bear was first seen by our trail camera in June 2023, looking for food with his three furry companions. Can you believe he was the first to bravely step into our live trap? It takes a special soul to face the unknown, and Rory did it with courage. 💖 Now, let me tell you, Rory has a personality that can charm the socks off anyone! He loves nothing more than showering folks with his signature bear hugs. When he feels a bit frisky, watch out—those arms can wrap around you like a warm, furry blanket! But it breaks the heart to see this sweet boy lower his head whenever a hand moves too close; he's so sensitive and just needs a little time to trust again. With some patience, Rory is learning to lift that head high! 🎈 He has had his share of adventures, that's for sure! He once dug under our fence not once, but twice—only to jump over to reunite with a female companion (a little romance in the rescue world!). Thankfully, since his neuter, he’s staying within the yard boundaries, proving he’s learning the ropes. Yet, be mindful: Rory has a hint of a hunting instinct and gets curious about the evening wildlife, especially a feral kitty that’s caught his eye! 🐾 Rory is not the hyperactive type; in fact, he enjoys lounging around like a pro nap-taker! He walks well on a leash, though sometimes he might express his feelings with a growl towards other male dogs—he's good with them, but let’s avoid any dominant males in his future home! While we’re unsure about his house training, he is crate trained. Plus, he’s been through heartworm treatment and is now on prevention, so this gentle guy is on the mend and looking forward to a bright future. 🌈 At approximately 4 years old and weighing in at 72 pounds, Rory is ready to find his forever home! For just a $70 adoption fee, he could become a loving part of your family. Remember, he should be the only dominant male in the home, as he thrives in a more peaceful environment. So get excited and take the leap! Apply to adopt Rory today through the Buddy App, and let this wonderful animal fill your life with joy, cuddles, and bear hugs! ❤️
