Meet my puppy

Meet Beaux!

We went through a lot (and a lot of money) raising him for the past year. Our beautiful and lovable black lab was very quiet and “lazy” when we first got him. Turns out he was anemic. The doctor from the place we got him at refused to do a blood work until I kept pushing it. Right after, I switched him to my favorite veterinary clinic and he has been taken well care of there. For almost a whole year he was on lots of medication and prescribed food for his sensitive skin and stomach. Not only was I spending so much money on him, I was sleep deprived for 3 months. Due to his high energy, stomach issues, meds, etc. I wanted to give him up. If it wasn’t for my fiancé’s support, I probably wouldn’t be having him now.

Now Beaux is 1.5 years old and the healthiest boy out there with a stomach of steel. He is very lovable and does not know personal space. He loves to greet everyone and is not afraid to make new friends. He loves to play in the water (but hates bath time) and will somehow splash his water bowl on himself. He is the silliest dog I ever met and I’m glad I pushed through those tough times.
