I don't know what it is, but I'm getting a lot of dogs needing new homes right now. At least the mother of this big boy, Beau, is trying to do the right thing by trying to find him a good home, rather than turning him over to a shelter. Here is Beau's story:

Meet Beau. He is owned by Judy whose husband died while walking Beau at a motel they were staying at when they fled Rita. If that isn't bad enough, Judy walks with two canes so is having a very hard time with Beau. She would like to find him a good home. If you or anyone you know is interested, see below.

Wanted: One Good Home!My name is Beaumont, though I live in Houston. I am a loveable dog who needs space to play. I am 80 lbs. and two feet tall. My mix is lab and pit bull, but don't hold that against me. I love bones and tennis balls but mostly bones. Though I am loved much, I need a home with a younger owner. Please contact 713-202-1882 for further information and ask for Judy.
