The Beau Diddley Diaries

Did somebody say TREAT?!

Relaxation defined

Well, it looks like our hound sitter is not just becoming a "dog person," but we're going to have to pry our hounds away from her when we get home from Kaua'i. You judge for yourself...

Relaxation

It’s a wonderful feeling. Hard to believe that it’s been a week since Beau got so sick. Right now he is barking at me to come and cuddle with him on the couch. Before I join him, here’s a quick update on what he’s been up to the past couple of days:

Beau is completely back to his normal behavior. He continues to eat well, and has those beautiful eyes of his working overtime trying to convince me to give him extra treats. (I am on to you Beau!) Of course he drinks more, and I have to let him out a lot more, but that’s due to the prednisone. Now that Beau is back to normal, I have started to relax.

Friday afternoon was an absolutely beautiful spring day, the warmest yet this year. After work, I took Beau and Maggie out for a walk. Beau just loved being out there, and initially, took off at a pretty good pace. He did get tired a bit at the end, so I cut the walk a little short, and we all headed back to the house.

That night we all stayed up a little late, and then slept through the night. (Well I did wake up at 5 a.m.) When Beau heard me stir, instead of getting up to go out back, he walked closer to me, and lay back down resting his head on my arm. At that moment, I am convinced there was no human or hound more relaxed than us.

Earlier today, I packed up Beau and Maggie and off we went on a field trip to my house. I had a couple errands to run in my neighborhood, and wanted to do a few things around my house. They had a nice relaxing afternoon there until we all piled back into my car and headed back home.

Field Trip

I am heading off to the couch to join Beau and Maggie for the rest of the evening. In closing, I believe I captured
the picture that should be used to define the word “relaxation” in a dictionary. Wouldn’t you agree?
