Beau Saturday March 7,2026

I absolutely refused to look at the cell phone, Saturday when Mama said it was Selfie Sunday. She said be that way, took 4 shots and said forget the BeauSpeak, today will be 

MAMA-Speak

Two weeks ago the below email came from Beau's Vets office. 

It is warning us that URI (upper respiratory infection) sometimes called kennel cough, is rampant and that the county has issued a warning that even dogs vaccinated can still get it. They suggested no parks, no visits with other dogs, if walking stay away from any dogs you meet.. It is very contagious. This is the first ever warning like this we have ever received from the vet office or county.

Part of the email explained, just sniffing the pee, or poop or eating the poop can spread the kennel cough to your dog.

Our local news a few weeks back, notified us to be careful of things our dog eats while on a walk. A local pet owner lost her Golden Retreiver out on their morning walk, the dog picked up and swallowed a packet, that had contained cocaine laced with fentanyl and 1 grain can kill a dog. The Golden died within 3 minutes of swallowing it.

 Since March is Pet Poison Prevention Month, I wanted to warn all of you that there are many plants that are poisonous to our pets. Our summer is here and I will be on patrol while walking or in the back yard for the trees that are dangerous. 

this is a list of our common Florida plants on the poison list, you can search for your areas list of plants and be careful while walking your pet.

Many common Florida landscape and houseplants are toxic to dogs, with Sago Palms, Oleander, Azaleas, and Lantana being among the most dangerous. Other hazards include Caladium, Philodendron, Castor Bean, and Angel’s Trumpet. Ingestion can cause severe symptoms, including vomiting, diarrhea, tremors, and, in severe cases, liver or heart failure
