Hi, I’m Beau! I’m a 7-year-old Miki (that’s a fun little designer breed, in case you were wondering), and I’ve got a story I’d love to tell you.

I actually got my start with Max’s Ark Rescue as a tiny puppy — I was the only baby in my litter, and the rescue took in my whole family together: my mom, my dad, my two brothers, and my sister. I’ve always known what it feels like to be surrounded by love, even before I had my own person.

Seven years ago, a wonderful woman gave me my forever home, and I gave her seven of the best years a dog could ask for. We were a team. But life has a way of changing plans, even good ones, and recently she had to say goodbye to me through no fault of her own — she lost her husband, her health made things hard, and she had to move somewhere I couldn’t come along. It broke her heart, and honestly, it broke mine too. But she did something really important: she made sure I came right back to the people who loved me first. That’s how I ended up here again, safe and sound, waiting for my next chapter.

So here’s a little about me: I’m sweet, I’m loyal, and I know how to love a family with my whole heart. I’ve done it before and I’m ready to do it again. I may be 7, but I’ve got plenty of good years and cuddles left in me — and honestly, a dog with a little life experience already knows exactly how to fit into a home and make it feel complete.

If you’re looking for a companion who understands what it means to be part of a family, who’s calm, affectionate, and ready to settle in — I might just be your guy. I’m hoping my next home is my last one, and I promise to make every day worth it.

Could you be my person? I’d love to meet you.

— Beau
