Sir Beauregard

I have waited one LONG week to post about the newest addition to our family. Sunday before last, we loaded up the kiddos and drove to the other side of Kansas City and adopted the newest additon to our family. We rescued Sir Beauregard. We call him Beau or Bo-Bo, or "HOLY FREAKING COW DOG!, HOW MUCH DO YOU PEE?!"

He is a cutie patootie, but I forgot what it was like to housebreak a puppy. Beau is St. Bernard / Blue Tick Coonhound mix. Odd combination right? Well here is his story:

Beau's Mom, Dolly, belonged to a rancher and was basically taken advantage of by a St. Bernard. The rancher stopped feeding Dolly because he thought she was just getting fat. duh. Dolly ran off to the farm down the road and went into a horse stall and delivered all six of her pups, BY HERSELF! In case you don't know, there is a huge size difference between a Blue Tick Coonhound and a St. Bernard. Huge difference in size. The vet was amazed that Dolly delivered them without help because of the pups head size. Anyway, the pups were found and the owner of Dolly was called to come get her and the pups. He said sure, I'm just gonna drown the pups anyway. DROWN them?! Well, after that comment, the pups went straight to Erin's Midwest Animal Resq. The sad part is that the Momma dog, Dolly, is heartworm positive. She is such a sweet and good Momma. Long story short, all the pups and Momma have been rescued and will find wonderful homes such as ours.

Isn't he the cutest?
