According to Jamie, when she went to visit Beaux after coming across the online adoption posting, she was "horrified" by what she saw. He was exceedingly thin, he weighed just 19 kg and he was full with parasites.

Jamie fell in love with the puppy, and she got him treated quickly. Beaux was sick with the "heartworm", but he was too thin to receive adequate treatment. Jamie then assisted him through it, taking the required time, and Beaux is now joyful than ever.
