Moments. Small fractions of seconds that have irreversible consequences. For Beatrix, it was the day she was thrown out on the streets. From her very birth the world had it out for her. Beatrix was most likely born on accident, as many puppies are. Her father, a distant mirage that did not even know of her existence. Such is the life of a street dog. Beatrix was most likely born into a house that was completely unprepared for her and her litter mates. Six weeks later, Beatrix was thrown out on the streets. Survival of the fittest was the name of the game.
Little is known of Beatrix's life before. We know that she lived on the streets, struggling to find food, running from danger, and desperately looking for something--though even she was unclear of what that was. Beatrix was lucky though. Beatrix was and is inherently great with children. And that is where the next chapter of her life began. A kind woman was dropping her son off for preschool, and she noticed a small dog, not even a six months old, greeting the children as they got off of the school bus. For the next several weeks, this dog would appear, every single morning, to greet the children. She would gently lick their hands, feet, little legs and arms, until they were beckoned inside. Then she would slowly make her way from the middle, carrying her small, emaciated frame towards whatever that day would bring her. Finally, that woman decided she couldn't watch this dog suffer anymore. So, Beatrix found her second home.
It turns out that little Beatrix was an extremely curious dog. She now lived on a farm with; cows, chickens, horses, other dogs, and even tractors. She simply could not stay away from all of these interesting thing! The woman with the little boy could see that Beatrix was eventually going to get into trouble. Possibly even hurt. It was time to find Beatrix a new home. The woman contacted the local doggy day care and asked them to post a picture of the little brown dog. And that's when Beatrix found her forever home. A girl, 16, had been begging her parents to allow her to find a new dog. Her dog, Olive, having died the year before. She had tried everything to get them to agree. She begged, she wrote letters, she wrote lists, she dropped subtle hints, she dropped not so subtle hints. Finally, they relented. They agreed to look at this little brown dog. The rest they say is history. On the ride to her forever home, Beatrix sat on the girls lap. She stared out the window and watched as they pulled up in front a new home.
Beatrix is approximately 22 pounds. She is brown. She has a long tail that curls up into her back. Her body is long, but her legs are proportionally too short. The DNA tests revealed many different breeds, but the most prominent being Chow-Chow, Pom, and Bassett Hound. Try to imagine that. Beatrix's namesake comes from two places. The first, Bellatrix from Harry Potter. The girl who adopted Beatrix felt that she had just enough weird about her to warrant an interesting name. As the girls mom says, her dog is "cute, with just a pinch of funky." But she also wanted to give her a sophisticated name so she gave her Beatrice, from Beatrice Potter. The girl decided to combine them. Thus, Beatrix Flat was born, the flat being a joke about the girls love for music. But mostly, her family just calls her Bea. And this is her life.
