You’ve got to admit it. Ever since Ramona Singer claimed Coco as her second (albeit furry) child over on Real Housewives of New York, the Real Pets have totally been a thing. Some, like Lisa Vanderpump‘s Giggy on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, are simply here, there, and everywhere. Others, like Kyle Richard‘s dog menagerie serve as unintentional human foils. The best laid plans, and all that.
Even Erika Jayne has gotten into the pet action. Her pup Tiago often accompanies her on RHOBH trips. Let’s face it. Dogs are where it’s at.
Inarguably, one of the most beloved Bravolebrity canine’s is none other than Shannon Storms Beador‘s golden retriever, Archie. Archie first came on the Real Housewives of Orange County scene after Shannon’s split from David Beador. And he’s been gracing us with his pleasure ever since.
As the mom to two golden retriever’s myself, I am especially amused by his antics. Don’t nobody be getting in between a golden and their pool. Not even you, Tamra Judge.
Unfortunately, Archie’s had a rough go of it lately. Recently he disappeared from his yard for a casual neighborhood romp. As you do. Luckily, he was found shortly thereafter. I can’t even imagine the panic that must have caused Shannon while he was missing.
Most recently, however, Archie’s been having multiple, and unresolved, skin issues. Quite simply, he hasn’t been doing well. Finally, we have an update!
Shannon took to her Instagram feed, to update everyone on Archie’s progress.
