What if I told you not to tell??? You'd probably do one of three things: number one, and most unlikely, you'd keep my secret and not tell a soul. Two, you'd tell that one close friend (or a couple close friends) who you think wouldn't tell and you'd tell them not to tell, but invariably they would. Or Three, you'd tell everyone because let's face it gossip and spreading rumors is a fun thing to do.

So what if I told you this is all true? Or mostly true? Or only a little sliver of truth is in here and the rest is lies? Would you still read? Would you tell? What if I said that all this is true and I only pretend it's not because it makes for a better story to pretend it never happened? Or what if I tell you it's true and it's really not, would you really believe it?

In either case, this is blog is full of my secrets and whether or not you share them is up to you, but you can't steal them because everything is safe on the internet. And Everyone always believes what they read, so it must all be true. Wait... maybe I'm wrong about this last little bit.

Whatever... It's a secret. Don't tell.

What I know about Beau


Beau is my Dog. He walked into my yard in Louisiana about 2 1/2 months ago. He was covered in 40+ ticks and starving. After making sure he didn't have an owner, we adopted him. This is our learning experience with our new dog::


  1. Beau is a Great Pyrenees, if not purebred almost pure
  2. He's 100lbs and 35 inches or so tall
  3. He likes Milkbones and Beggin' Strips
  4. He likes Ol'Roy strips in Gravy dogfood
  5. He can open my livingroom window if it's cracked
  6. He liked to sleep in my room in Louisiana but since he pees here, he sleeps in the garage and barks until he gets tired and goes to sleep.
  7. He likes to bark at my cat, Luna and gets scared when she takes a swipe at him.
  8. He loves to be pet and will hit you if you stop petting him before he wants you to.
  9. He likes his main coat to be brushed but doesn't like when his legs are.
  10. He hates baths.
  11. He likes to push himself into your legs and touch you.
  12. If he wants your attention while you're sleeping, he will either step on you, jump on you or breathe heavily in your face.
  13. He doesn't mind being used as a pillow.
  14. He chews if he's left locked in a room.
  15. He will steal human food like strawberry loaf cakes and will chew the container to get to it.
  16. He doesn't have cheese farts.
  17. His paws are the size of my palms. 
  18. He has an extra toe on each of his back paws, a sign of his breed. 
  19. His tail can be straight or curly, depending on his mood.
  20. He can hop my fence. 
  21. He drinks out of the toilet (EWW!)
  22. He doesn't beg for food.
  23. He doesn't pull on the leash when he's walked (even though he could easily overpower me and get away).
  24. He doesn't like time-out. 
  25. He loves us.
  26. He doesn't like moving, to prove it he'll pee all over your boxes. 
  27. He thinks that cowboy boots are made to be chewed.
  28. He sheds a small puppy a day.
  29. He will bark if left out front on a line but is totally silent when you take him for a walk.
  30. He's 2 1/2 years old.
  31. He doesn't like when the kids try to ride him.
  32. He doesn't die when he eats chocolate.
  33. He eats candy and the wrappers and poops out the wrappers.
