Immune System Health

My health is NOT your responsibility. I will NOT blame you when I get sick and in return you should NOT blame me when you get sick. Its my job to take care of my immune system.

The Persistance of a Beagle
Scout’s behavior (and Mercy’s too) can often be bothersome to me. If it’s not asking for treats, they may be annoying me with requests to be let out in the middle of the night or to play or walk at an inconvenient time. Mercy, my lab, bless her heart, will ask but often is quick to give up on me. Scout, on the other hand, will keep knocking. Keep asking. Keep seeking me out.
