What I saw made my blood run cold.Claire had set up a livestream using a tablet she hid behind the couch. She was broadcasting Zoey’s bedtime routine to strangers online, chatting and smiling for the camera. Then, Zoey began coughing and choking — and Claire didn’t notice.
She had earbuds in and was glued to the screen. It was Beau who sprang into action, barking, nudging the crib, and finally snapping at Claire — not to hurt her, but to make her pay attention. He saved our daughter. We fired Claire immediately, reported her, and contacted the agency. As for Beau? We got him a silver tag that reads: “Zoey’s Guardian.” He’s still by her side, always watching — but now, we listen. Because he was never the problem. He was the protector all along.
