Beau has found his voice

Our little dog Beau is a rescue dog and he has some issues from his past that we will never know. Abandonment, fear, etc. And he never makes a sound except to squeak like a tennis shoe on hardwood when he's happy or excited. He runs in circles and squeaks, too funny.

The vet says he is capable of barking, but chooses not to...maybe a shock collar in his past? Who knows. The only time we ever heard a bark, even a single little one was occasionally when he was having a dream.

Last Saturday after one of the occasions when we've left him alone for a short while, he greeted us by jumping up and down on all fours and barking! We were so surprised, we didn't know what to think. It didn't last long, but we were just shocked. After nearly a year, he'd barked!

Yesterday, we left him for a short run to the grocery store, and low and behold, upon our return he did the jumping up and down and barking again! Not only that, but when we took him for his afternoon walk he leaped and bounced along like he was the happiest guy on the planet.

Oh, how we wish he could tell us his story!!

Springtime color in the yard

This is our first spring in the house, and we knew we had lots of rhodys and azaleas in the yard, but had no clue about what color or variety they were. What a pleasant surprise!! Here's just a sample of the beautiful colors we've been experiencing!
