Beaumont: You know Louise, you have been letting all my fans down with your inconsistent posting of my brilliance here on my blog.
Me: (sighing) Yes Beau. I know. But I…/
Beau: (interrupting) Remember what you always tell me Louise… Keep your butt out of it!
Me: (Sighing. Again) Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. But…/
Beau: Ahem.
Me: Right. So, here’s the deal Beau. We’ve been writing this here blog since September 15, 2018! That means we’ve shared 176 posts full of your…. (pause while I think of the ‘right’ word) brilliance and I’m a teeny bit weary of having to translate dawgspeak into hoomanspeak every Sunday. Know what I mean?
Beau: No I don’t know what you mean Louise. I mean I have spent almost 8 years trying to translate yourspeak into myspeak and you don’t hear me say I’m weary of you now do you? So… how can you be weary of my fans?
Louise: Beau! I didn’t say I was weary of your fans. Stop putting words into my mouth!
Beau: You mean stop doing what you do? Putting words in my mouth?
Me: I don’t put words into your mouth, Beau. I translate your thoughts into words for your fans.
Beau: Right you are! That is what you do so I think you should keep doing it.
Me: Umm… Did you just turn my words around?
Beau: (smiling innocently) Who me? Of course not. I just agreed with what you said. “You translate my thoughts into words for my fans. My fans count on you. You can’t let them down.
Me: But…
Beau: Enough with the buts Louise. You made a commitment on September 15, 2018 and now you want to break it?
Me: No. I would like to renegotiate it though.
Beau: How so?
Me: Well…. how about we write here every second Sunday instead of every Sunday?
Beau: Hmmmm…… How about on the Sundays we don’t post, you share a photo of me so my fans don’t forget what I look like!
Me: Ok. I can commit to that.
Beau: Oh good. ‘Cause you also need to commit to sharing a quote with the photo — you know one of my brilliant dawg-insights on living life to the fullest?
Me: (sighing. How can I say no when he bats his eyelids so beguilingly?) Ok. Beau. Deal.
So. There you have it. Beau and I have negotiated a new standard for his blog. We do so hope you still come and visit and follow along and share your thoughts and just give him a whole bunch of DawgOn Lovin’ – ’cause I apparently don’t give him enough!
Beau: Dawg-insight No. 1 Louise —
When hoomans love on a dawg, they receive way more than they give ’cause DawgOn Lovin’ is dawgon’ good for what ails the hooman spirit.
Beaumont the Sheepadoodle
Beau: (smiling sweetly) And you know Louise, if you give me a bit of DawgOn’ Lovin’ you won’t feel quite so weary.
Sigh. Why is he always right?
Why indeed, some dogs just as

Beau, quite the negotiator you are. Looking forward to some interesting photos. You know, a picture is worth a 1000 words. You may be the winner after all.
