PLAINWELL, Mich. – A dog rescued from a dog-fighting ring in Kalamazoo is having more surgery to remove an infected ear canal.

We first told you about Lil’ Bear in September when the SPCA of Southwest Michigan found him covered in scars and a badly damaged left ear.  According to a GoFundMe page, Lil’ Bear is having further surgery Monday to remove an infected ear canal and ear drum.

Daniel Hampsten of Plainwell adopted Lil’ Bear. He is also a student at Western Michigan University and needs assistance in paying for the dog’s surgeries.
