2010.
Beau was one of my first pack members. I met him and his Mom at the dog park.
At first, when I picked Beau up he would get in my Dog Party Van regularly with ease....no problem.
He loved his pack and other Dogs...but humans not at all.
It took me three months of him getting in my van with my pack and going to the park.
Then one day Beau trusted me enough to pet him.
I waited patiently that three months for Beau to feel my love and trust me...when Beau let me pet him for the first time...I cried.
I remember the day vividly.
Beau was put to rest around Thanksgiving this year. He was around 10 years old.
I was fortunate enough to be there, Beau had a collapsed lung and His Mom didn't want him to suffer. I got there in time and held his warm, limp body.
I cried and told him...Leslie loves you, Beau.
I realized days later...I didn't have to tell him....because he knew that I loved him.
To be honest, I feel peace knowing that he felt that way about me.
Nanny Leslie and his Mom were the only people who could care for him.
Beau was a rescue who never recovered.
Beau lived in a safe and loving home for 9 years and yet he still lived with fear and anxiety everyday.
I learned so much from Beau
I always thought time healed all! Guess what....I was wrong.
Unfortunately, with Beau Beau Bunny the damage was already done at a young age and no amount of love or routine could change him.
My Dear Bunz, as I called him....thank you for giving ME the gift of loving you.
Beau taught me more about life than any human has up to this point.
Rest in peace my love.
Thank you for your trust and love. Leslie knows it was hard for you Beau.
I feel good knowing I never let you down buddy❤
