Hi, my name is Bear

I've lived here since February and it's a pretty nice place to stay. There are cats to chase, food to eat and sticks to drag around the yard. I like the humans that I live with and I love it when other humans come to visit me. I have to greet them when they drive into the yard. I'm really nice to them and I hope they'll play with me. Sometimes I get so excited about playing that I jump on them and then someone tells me no really loud.

Sometimes I get into trouble. I ate a $66 tractor part and my master got really mad at me. I chewed on a five gallon plastic pale that was by my human's door. I don't really know why I chewed on it, it didn't even taste very good but it felt good on my teeth. Then I chewed on some wires and tubing on a sprayer. My master got really mad at me again.

Today I followed my other master almost to town. She was leaving in the van and I wanted to see where she was going. She turned around and came back home (maybe to play with me??) but when she got out of the van she looked really angry. I wouldn't come near her because I could tell she was going to put me back in the barn. Finally the other master grabbed my collar and walked with me to my pen. I wonder how long I'll have to stay in here....

Come visit me soon. Maybe they'll let me out to play with you.
