Bear (bunny) & Harley


Scott, one of our first CRA supporters, has been great about sharing with those who share his love for animals. His is an unconventional tale of both dog and rabbit rescue that had premium results! His rescued lab, Harley, had severe separation anxiety. In the off-chance it would help, Scott and his family adopted two rabbits (one of which is Bear, above). Harley "settled right down" after they got the rabbits. Scott says that Harley "sort of had a maternal thing going for them," which is evidenced by these photos!

But wait! I am hearing your questions "magically" over the internet. I know what some of you are saying. "But how do I get my bunny and my dog to play nice?"  True, many situations won't be nearly as perfect as Scott's. Some dogs are born hunters and you will not be successful at getting them to "play nice," much less snuggle in the laundry basket. But the Wisconsin House Rabbit Society has some wonderful insight on how to socialize your dogs and rabbits. Click here to start reading up!

Now back to Scott's story! After a happy life together, sadly, the bunnies and Harley have crossed the Rainbow Bridge. Scott's beloved 13-year-old lab, Fisher, remains with him. Fisher himself has a health condition that is quite critical, but I have met Fisher and he has a lot of spunk and a lot of love for, and dedication to, Scott.  Covenant Rescue Advocacy thanks Scott and his family for their equipment donations. It's because of the love that people have for animals that makes what we do a possibility. We, along with Harley and the bunnies I know, are eternally grateful.
