Jade can’t help but fall in love with Bear, an adorable Bernese mountain dog puppy she meets in the park after school. Bear is large and lively and belongs to a new family in the neighborhood. Bear’s owners are always on the go and are grateful when Jade offers to walk Bear. But as she spends more time with him, she begins to worry that they aren’t able to give him the attention and exercise he needs. How can she help Bear when he isn’t her dog to help?
