COCONUT~isms! He "screamed" instead of actual barking. He expected a treat even if YOU were the one who went outside. He attacked the TV if there was a dog on it. He was the best Mentor to his younger brother Beau- who is a black lab rescue. If out walking and Coconut started barking at something- Beau got behind him (WAY behind him). He was known as Coconut, Cocie, Bubba and Mama's Lifeguard. If mom was in the pool - he would stand on the porch and be HER lifeguard. IF the girls splashed her, he would bark like crazy at them to stop. He loved his treats- If he didn't want THAT treat- he would stick his nose up and then beg until you got it right and offered him the preferred treat. He loved block walks- He always raced Beau to be "first" (first to the mailbox, first to that blade of grass, first in line, etc) He loved to make "his rounds" in the front yard- free of his leash. (only allowed with his dad) He loved kisses, snuggles, cozy blankets, body rubs, sitting on top of the couch and his family. Coconut- We "Gotcha" on March 29, 2005- the best day of our lives! You were a little ball of white fluff! On April 16, 2016 you became our "Son- Shine" We miss you every second of every day! You blessed us and taught us well! Forever in our hearts!
