We love him dearly!  I think he loves us, too!  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Oscar and Emmett play and play and play &#8230; and then they nap.  I love how they are doing together.  And it is particularly nice now with horrible walking conditions &#8230; Emmett gets extra exercise via the play.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Oscar is very snuggly with both of us.  He also is able to play by himself when Emmett has had enough, and I am working.  His active imagination has him playing hilarious hunting games with his toys.  I am actually wishing for a mouse in the house to see what happens.  Oscar is VERY fast and I know he will be able to catch a mouse &#8230; the big question is then what???<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I am so very grateful for Oscar.  I miss Auggie every day.  Oscar often does things that are so like Auggie that I wonder &#8230; just like I wonder when Emmett does things like Karl and Bear.  Whatever, it is all good and comforting and part of the circle of life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"601\" src=\"https:\/\/www.beardogco.com\/theroadhome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Week1918.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-21084\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.beardogco.com\/theroadhome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Week1918.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.beardogco.com\/theroadhome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Week1918-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.beardogco.com\/theroadhome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Week1918-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.beardogco.com\/theroadhome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Week1918-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.beardogco.com\/theroadhome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Week1918-294x196.jpg 294w, https:\/\/www.beardogco.com\/theroadhome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Week1918-60x40.jpg 60w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As noted in the previous post &#8230; it got ugly.
