Hi All,
I write this post with a mix of emotions, Ken and I have decided it is time for our dog, Beau to find a new home. In the past couple weeks his demeanor towards Kaden has drastically changed. He has always been so loving and easy with Kaden but recently he was become a but aggressive with him. He snapped at him once last week and last night snapped at him and broke the skin on his little face. Kaden is fine and does have a little boo boo, it scared us more than anything. It bleed a little but he has been fine since. Kaden loves him too death and apparently sometimes he just gets too close and too loud for Beau's comfort. He learned how to hug with Beau, he would hug him and we would say AWE! If you notice still when Kaden gives you a hug he says AWE! We just can't take the chance with having 2 kids and hopefully more in the future and with all the kids we have over that Beau could really hurt one of them when they are playing with him. We have talked to the vet and she said it is really common for dogs to act like this once a baby becomes a toddler and and more mobile. It is harder for the dog to get away from the kid and they just react like animals do. We also called the pediatrician and they told us what to clean his cut with to prevent infection. We are hoping Ken's mom will take him or someone that lives alone, with no kids that would like the company. If you happen to know anyone like that please let me know. Rachel doesn't know yet, but she does know what happened. I know she will understand but it will still break her heart. As parents we have to look out for our children's best interest and Ken and I feel like there is no other choice. I would never be able to forgive myself knowing he had snapped twice before if it happened again and could be much worse next time. Please keep us and Beau in your thoughts and prayers as we handle this sad ordeal!
XOXO,
The Glass Family
