Beau, April , 2025 below June 2025

Posting these to keep this blog active.

Its a new day, its a new Dawn

All photos today were taken on Dec 10th 2024 sunrise walk with Mama

It's a new day, its a new Dawn,

it's a new life, and I am feeling good.

I am here to tell you, I am moving to a new hood.

Don't get excited, I am not being divorced/dumped in a shelter.

The scoop is, Mama has an appt with a surgeon, daddy has health issues

and Mama is In Charge of Daddy and Me and of course herself and all the thing

two people used to do..

We are simply, for now, until further notice, no longer posting on Fourpaws.

It will be here, and she will post every now and then to keep it active.

When, not IF, I have things to say, I will say them on her main blog,

MadSnapper, AKA MadBloviator or MadMagpie, and sometimes just simply

The Mad One.

I am not leaving you, and if you want to keep up, I will be on

MADSNAPPER.. her blog is in the green box on top of sidebar, you can click there to find me or the link privided.

She has an appt with the surgeon on Dec 19th and will give details on the 20th

Beau needs Prayers and POTP (power of the paws)

Thank you, Ann of Zoolatry, for the graphic

Friday night, Dec 20, 2024, starting at 4 pm, Beau paced for 13 hours without laying down. I walked every step he did because he eats his own poop if I don't stop him, he did the pacing and digging holes for 4 hours, I was on the phone with the ER to see if they would see him, when he threw up the most horrid mess, it was 20 inches around in the kitchen. After that he laid down for 5 minutes and back to pacing, digging holes, spraying diarrhea and throwing up. At 8 am he laid down and went to sleep and that was the last of it and all normal until Monday 4 am, he did the same thing until 8 and that was it. 

the other awful part was his legs gave out. Beau has been on gabapentin twice a day for 2 years for his dysplasia and other back leg problems. He lost the meds from the vomiting. He started dragging both legs behind him and could barely walk, also did the same with the next bout.

 I got him back on the pills yesterday morning and he is walking and ate boiled rice and ground round for breakfast. 

I took him for half of his normal walk today and the left leg was not as good as it was.

Please send Beau your Prayers.

During all this I went to the hospital to see my best friend who is dying, she has been on Beaus blog several times, she is his best friend too. She is not expected to live much longer and no longer knows her family.

Because of all the walking I have done, my hip has given out and with Bob's dementia, none of us are doing well and as the cherry on top, I think I am getting a cold. We spent 13 hours outside in 45-degree temps and 15 mph winds.

thank you for your prayers...

Jackie and Beau

 

My Kitchen, by Beau

 

This is my kitchen, and the dog photo wall,

Yes, I know you can't see me at all.

now can you see me?

My tail and leg, is all you can see

Is this better? You can see my butt,

which proves the kitchen belongs to a mutt.

I love the smells, I love the treats,

I love it most because this is where I eats.

The proof is on the wall, that his kitchen loves canines,

because there are 5 angel dogs on this wall that once lived in this kitchen

 having good times.
