Beauregard-or Beau, as his friends and family liked to call him-touched the lives of everyone he encountered. He had a warm personality and inviting demeanor, and the fact that he had special needs merely meant he was more appreciative of the care he received and more attentive to the needs of others. Indeed, he truly was one of a kind, and there will never be another like him.
To be clear, it is no mistake that the words person and man were not used above, as Beau was neither. Pet enthusiasts will not be shocked to learn that Beau was a beloved canine, considered one of the family by the people lucky enough to call him theirs, who were deeply impacted by his life, death, and legacy.
There'll Never Be Another Beauregard is a tribute to this compassionate canine, as penned by his best friend and master F. William Smullen. It lovingly recounts the ways they cared for each other and highlights the valuable life lessons Smullen learned from his relationship with Beau, which are sure to prove helpful to readers looking to pick, train, or fully enjoy their perfect pet.
