The Blessings of Beau on Sunday Selfie

We are now 24 days from Hurricane Milton and I wrote this post on day 11

 I am writing this, Oct 20, now 11 days since Milton. The blessings during the storm with Beau are as follows

He was never afraid, even when the hounds of hell were roaring around the house like a giant wolf was huffing and puffing and trying to blow the house down.

During the worst part, at 1:30 am, the northern edge of the eye was directly over our house, as I huddled in the hall, praying, he went in his closet/condo and to bed. for one hour the winds slammed and howled, the quiet of the eye came and the winds became tornadic winds, so said the radio I was clutching to my chest.

He peed/pooped every single day, outside, no matter what the storm was doing. 

He slept well as long as he was in the room with us.

Rattling generators, whining

humming songs from generator belts, noxious fumes that gave me a head ache, he slept and did his thing without complaint, 7 days of aftermath, he was our rock.

On one of the days, towards the end of 7 days of no power, the house next door, erupted into 3 pit bulls fight, loud and vicious, men cursing and fighting, dogs fighting, women and children screaming. It was Hell, I shook like a leaf during it and for and hour after. Beau never blinked and eye.

He had his annual visit with the vet, blood work, and shots, all $354.00 of it was done 2 days before Milton slammed us.  he was a good boy, and 3 days ago we got a text that all was clear and he is in good health. YAY

Beau was our Blessing! we hugged, rubbed, massaged him, stroked him and he is the best therapy dog EVER! He calmed our spirits and was our Rock. He also had us laughing at his antics, the same ones we laugh at every time he does them. We smiled because each morning he was so happy to go ride to get ice. 

LOVE LOVE
