In the town of Yunnan, China, Amy and her family decided to adopt a furry friend. They visited a pet store and instantly fell in love with an adorable puppy they named Blackie, believing it to be a Tibetan Mastiff. However, Blackie displayed unusual behaviors, such as a large appetite and a unique howling bark. Despite these quirks, the family cherished their time with him.
After two years, Amy began to realize that something was off about Blackie. He had grown to an enormous size, weighing over 110 kilograms and standing over 1 meter tall. His teeth were sharp and resembled those of a dangerous animal. Worried for their safety, Amy and her family took Blackie to the vet.
To their shock, the vet informed them that Blackie was not a Tibetan Mastiff but an Asian black bear, a species native to Asia and endangered due to the use of its body parts in traditional medicine. The vet contacted the authorities, and the family had to say their final goodbyes to their beloved pet.
Although saddened by the news, Amy’s family felt relieved to understand why Blackie had been so peculiar and grateful that he had been rescued by the authorities. They considered it an honor to have cared for him, despite the unexpected turn of events.
