Meet Budo, the light of my life.
I'm in too good of a mood to tell his story right now, I'll just say that he was in
awful shape when he first came to me. Now, seven months of TLC, proper husbandry, and $500 of vet bills later, he is on the brink of recovery.
He is the sweetest little guy. Helping him on the road to recovery has been such a joy.
This is him ignoring me after I got back from a 4-week vacation. I did have a sitter come to care for him, but nobody gave him his usually spa treatments and midnight snuggles.
Snuggles.
MBD in full action.

My poor baby. Who could do this to such a sweet guy?? Luckily, it was only mild and has all but disappeared.
Having some fun in the yard.
His first beard. It took forever to tame him.
Believe it or not, that spiny guy eventually turned into this snuggle bugger.
First road trip.
Someone loves his butternut squash babyfood!
