Wonderful story.

Wish the dog didn't have to die though.

Who says Bear is dead? O.o

We don't have a dog trying to tear out Zero's throat in the miniseries?

Wow, that's all the scene needed really.

There needed to be a big ol' golden retriever that wasn't Cain, of course

See, there's a reason the man doesn't trust dogs ;)

I don't blame him.

Fun facts:

* Bear stayed in the barn at night, or on the porch. Wyatt let him in, late one night, because it was snowing. He got a spot in the kitchen-area, near the door, after that.
* Wyatt was always leery of Bear, but Bear never took it personally. And he only got into Wyatt's bubble when something was wrong with Jeb.
* Wyatt did stay up all night with him when Bear got hurt defending Jeb from someting in the woods not sure what it was. Wyatt Cain will never admit that he was relieved the next morning, when Bear was still alive.
* Bear may have been spotted in a Resistance camp at some point. Or not.

I was having trouble coming up with something....

When Wyatt had the shotgun and was looking for him, he yelled "Bear", so.. *shrug*
