We Walk Alone but Together

 



Our Angel Big boy lived with my parents for 738 days. Mama walked with him 736 days, missing two days due to hurricane winds.
I have been with Mama and Daddy for 448 days and Mama has only missed 3 days because she was to dizzy to walk due to Covid and 7 days because I was limping. 

Mama and I have walked together for 438 days.
Mama was broken hearted thinking I might never walk her again, but after 7 days, she started to walk me 500 feet and back, every 7 days she added another 100 feet.
Today on 12/29/2021 we walked our old 1-mile walk, together but still alone without Daddy.
We are hoping in a few months Daddy can walk with us.
Mama has been the Lone Dog Walker for more than 3 years.

We are hoping 2022 will see the three of us walking together

Hello Beau,

I love seeing all the cute dogs, adorable photos. I am glad you and your Mama are able to get out for the walks. I hope soon your Daddy will be able to walk with you too. HUGS, have a happy day!

Beau - don't ever let a human dress you up in a spaceman suit, or antlers, or like a gift wrapped box. Your beauty is your own and needs no enhancement or embellishment. We hope you get family walks together real soon. Paw smacks Mr T

We're glad to hear you have worked your way up to a 1 mile walk. Our paws are crossed that your dad will be able to walk with you soon.

Rose said...

I do so hope that two becomes three soon. That would be wonderful. You sure have a mama who lives you.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
I remember some of those photos and they are just as cute today as they were before. The poor dog dressed as a gift - lol.
So glad you are walking again - mom never gave up.
Dad WILL BE walking again too!

Good news that you and Beau are again doing the 1 mile walk. It will be so wonderful when Bob can again be out there with you.
You are a good Mama.

This title is so poignant. Maybe I'm reading more into (it) than you intended, but I love it.
Love, too, how you've captured the joy on those pups' faces.
Congratulations on the 1-mile walk!

Every one of those dogs looks like a sweetheart.
I sure hope your dad is back to walking with you and your mom real soon.

Well done on that mile Beau. We can't wait to see the three of you walking it together.
Toodle pip!

Beau, we are so proud of you and Mom for getting you back to walking. We love to walk with Mom - Dad is too slow - BOL. But now the walkways are too icy for Mom to take a chance - her bones don't do so well with falls:(

Sweet doggies!

Hooray Beau, I'm so glad you had a nice long walk, those patience things pay off in the long run!

CheerfulMonk said...

I do hope you can all start walking together! 🤞❤️

I for sure hope your Daddy will soon be able to walk with you too. Did you keep track of all those days? Faith wants to know. She can only count to two. She knows she's supposed to get two biscuits. If I try to give her just one, she gets upset and lets you know. Sits there and stares at you.

Way to go on walking a mile. That is wonderful news and hopefully daddy will be joining you soon.

We are glad you are walking more Beau. Cinnamon is a tad jealous...last week it was far too cold for CinnaMon. She would get about 1/6th of the distance they usually walk and Cinnamon would be on 3 legs and trying to walk on 2. We got a foot of snow last night but at least it is warmer today and they will try to see if she can get 1/2 the distance (now that Mom can walk a little better). We do hope your Dad gets to walk with you soon too! Purrs Marv

Hooray for the longer walks,, Beau!
When your Daddy joins you we will all stand by the roadside to cheer him and you on!

Those are great photos, great memories. What we want to know, Beau, is if you are going to dress up for her like a lot of those other pups were. Wishing you many more happy walks, and that your Dad will be able to go walking with you again, too! XOX Xena, Lucy and Chia
