Colby (renamed Brewer)

Shuggie

Shuggie is great! Growing some hair after mange treatments, still stealing our other Boston's food, and walking beautifully on the leash. She is quite the flirt. She disappears under blankets and cushions when she needs a break and otherwise entertains herself with toys and digging. She is gentle with my friend's children and bossy with our neighbor's dogs. Except for her zeal of barking at random times during the night when she's not in her crate, we haven't had any behavior worries. OK, she does have a fixation with birds and dead bugs, but really, who doesn't? We could not be more surprised and more pleased with adding her to the family. I can't believe that she waited so long for a permanent family.


Sparkie (renamed Finn)

Finn has grown leaps and bounds since our first few weeks with him. He absolutely loves people and can hardly contain his excitement when he sees them. He has made best friends with the neighbor dog and they have play dates just about eveyday and he always loves visits with family so he can play with their dogs. He goes with us pretty much everywhere we go. Weekend trips, day trips, and even lunch at the park a couple days a week. He adores our niece and nephew and licks them from head to toe! They scream and laugh and love it! He loves cuddling on the couch every night or anytime for that matter. He has truly become the family dog we dreamed of and can't imagine him not being a part of our lives.


Bogey

Bogey has been doing very well. He and Sparky get along like Champs although I have to calm Bogey down from time to time since he still has all that puppy energy (would love to have some of that myself some days). He is picking up on the house training pretty well too. He learned that if he does his business outside, he gets a treat. It is so funny when he finishes up, he sits right in front of you and looks up for his reward.

We really look forward to continuing to make him a very happy little man. He loves all of Sparky's toys so he definitely does not have to look far for something to play with. He is really developing into his own. I will continue to forward you photos I get to take of Bogey's big adventures!
 

 

 


Maxroy (renamed Colin)

Colin is very loving and affectionate and has adjusted very well to his new home. He loves to sun himself on the deck and play ball. He has learned how to shake hands, lay down, and how to take over the couch after a long day of playing!  He enjoys walks but enjoys meeting every dog that passes by even more. He is very active and shows no signs of ever having been injured in the car accident that brought him to BTRNC. Our 9-yr-old dog, Max, wasn't sure about Colin at first but is growing to like him. Colin is very good at trying to help Max understand that he just wants to play and they are starting to play tug and jointly fetch toys. In the month that he's been part of our lives, they've made great strides! We would like to thank BTRNC (and especially his foster mom) for the opportunity to give Colin a loving home. We couldn't ask for a better companion.


Quincy

Quincy is a happy guy who loves nothing more than to snooze in the sun and patrol the deck for lizards.
He has settled in nicely and we just love him to bits! Quincy loves to snuggle under the covers with us in the morningsand in the afternoons he loves to chase his kong all over the house (sometimes a little too much! He just can't help himself!!)
We are so happy you gave us the chance to make Quincy part of our little family. And I think Quincy is too. He truly is an american gentleman. :)

 

 

 


Freddie








Freddie is so sweet, we love him very much. He is my passport to BTRNC and I love him for that, too. We are still having some problems but nothing we think a bit of obedience training won't help.


 


Connor


 

Bailey (renamed Raleigh)

Everything is going very well at our house.  She has settled in very well as our newest family member.  I think she really knows she's in a good home where she'll be loved and taken care of for life!  Her and Washy are still getting used to each other, but enjoy snuggling on the couch together with me for some relaxing times!  Most of all they like to soak up the sunshine lounging outside or in the sunroom together!  She is still fearful of really loud noises, but comes running to give kisses when we get home or wake up in the morning and has really opened up to socializing.  She LOVES to kiss!!  I thank you, the transportation volunteers and everyone at BTRNC for all that you do and for allowing Raleigh a second chance at total happiness.  
 


Spice

Spice has been adapting and behaving wonderfully.  We haven't have any real issues with her since she arrived.  She hasn't even had an accident in the house yet. 
She and Domino are getting along well and play and wrestle together.  Domino is very patient with her. 
 

 

 

 

 


Weylon


Malorie

I just wanted to write to tell you that we are all IN LOVE with Miss Malorie. What a little babydoll! In the short time since she's been here, she has settled in like she's been here for years. Hunter, the kids and I are all amazed at what a happy well-adjusted pup she is, and I know that's in large part to your loving fostering of her. She has such a sunny disposition, and what a little kissy monster! She has spent the past two nights burrowed under the covers at the foot of our bed. ...she is in a very loving home, and we already love her so much.

 


Collette

Collette was renamed Pearl for her personality. She is extremely timid and delicate.  It is as if she has lived her whole life trapped inside a seashell. She needs alot of love, protection, patience and tenderness and she has found that haven in her new forever home. My 7 year old Boston Macy is very independent and secure so Pearl can have all the TLC she needs from her new mommy.  Pearl fits in perfectly here. Our home is quiet and comfortable. She has her human mommy when I'm home and a second mommy in Macy when I'm gone. She has alot to learn about socialization and potty training and Macy is great leadership in those regards. Pearl is home. Now healing can occur. It will only take time and we have all the time in the world. Welcome home Pearl, we've been waiting for you! 

 

 

 

 


 

Millicent


Daysi (renamed Gracie)




















 

Alexis (renamed Penelope)

Things are great, Penelope adjusted so well. She is so smart and quick to learn new tricks. She knows how to get out of her crate and has even figured out how to get a twisty-tie off the latch. She and the cats a getting along well, Penelope tries to play with them all the time. She loves car rides, and going to Petsmart and meeting new friends. 

 

 

 

 

 


 

LuLu (renamed Betty)  





    A couple of months ago we lost our first well loved BT that we had adopted from BTRNC years back.  My husband and I had talked about adopting again at some point in the distant future, but without a concrete plan.  But a confluence of factors having to do with timing and work, it seemed that the time had come sooner rather than later and as soon as we took a look at the website and saw a dog with the same name as our first “little girl” it was game over.

      Betty, (formerly Lulu) had a story that was irresistible.  She had been found in a home that ASPCA deemed to be “hoarding dogs” and was so bad they had to do an intervention and seize the dogs.  Betty was the only Boston Terrier and was immediately taken in by BTRNC.  She was too skinny, had worms and needed work on house training.  Her foster moms took wonderful care of her – putting some weight on her, getting her to the vet, crate-trained and housetrained.  I could tell that she had quickly gotten used to love from females, she took immediately to me when we brought her home, but she barked at my husband for a day.

















     It’s been a couple months and even though I think she was a little disoriented and sad at leaving her foster moms at first, she has grown to love us and has gotten used to the good life of a spoiled only dog pretty darn quick.  She now follows us around the house like a shadow, keeping one or both of us in sight at all times.  The minute we sit down on the couch, she leaps up and claims her spot on our laps for belly rubs.  After we gave her a basket full of toys, she sorted out which ones she liked best and has now has her pile in “her spot” in the family room.  Her favorite game is tennis ball fetch with my husband and we are teaching her tug-o-war.  
    Like all dogs, she has funny quirks, her latest habit that makes us chuckle is she insists on running up and sitting on our feet every time we brush our teeth at the bathroom sink. 
She has the sweetest, most loving disposition and wants nothing more than to cuddle, give kisses and go for walks.  I can’t imagine how she maintained such a sweet personality living in that house with all those dogs.   Like many rescues, she needed a regular schedule, careful attention and work on housetraining, but rewarded us with absolute devotion and love, making it all the more worthwhile.  Thanks to BTRNC, we are so glad to give Betty a “forever home!”







Parker (renamed Pork Chop)




Our family has been waiting a long time to find the right rescue BT to fit into our household--and it finally happened!!!
 
We have had our sweet Pork Chop for over a month now--and he has settled his happy big self into our household.  Spikey and Ozzie still aren't QUITE sure what to make of their new brother but disputes are becoming fewer and far between.  The PC is quite a character and has come completely out of his formerly shy self.  His wagging nub and funny gait keep us laughing. 
 
My husband and Pork Chopus Maximus continue their mutual admiration club--BTRNC's description of the PC being a man's man was totally right on.  He gives his new Mommy lots of kisses, but demands to sleep on Richard's side of the bed and pillow---and really with that loud snoring, Mommy isn't complaining too much!
 
We have all found love (okay Spike and Ozzie are not there yet) and couldn't be happier!! 
Our family is complete!
 
Thank you to BTRNC and Pork Chop's fabulous Foster mommy!!! 

 



















Baxter (renamed Murphy)


Just want to thank you for everything- Murphy  has been such a great addition to our family.  We were all worried about picking the perfect dog for Molly, since she'd been an only dog for so long, and we've done it! Molly comes barreling out of the room during the day just to wait to see him.  Her big brother is her new best friend, and I'm so happy that things worked out the way that they did.  Even though Murphy thinks "sit" means "roll over", you can tell how happy he is to have found a forever home, and we're so happy that home is with us.  I've attached a few pics for you playing with his new sister.

Mattie





Mattie endears herself to all who meet her.
She is gentle and sweet, and the source of
much laughter in our home.  She truly "goes with
the flow", and will accommodate her family
in however they spend their time.  She often
sleeps with her tongue sticking out; we have
taken numerous photos of her this way!  She
gets along beautifully with her sister black labrador
and defers to her seniority.  She allows us to hold her
like a baby and will sleep in our arms.  Mattie has
made an incredibly seamless transition, and we
couldn't have found a more delightful canine!
 
Sincerely,
Mary Lou Wu
Columbia, SC



 

Louie (renamed Nakotah)
 

Louie (renamed Nakotah) never actually made it onto the website as being available because I snapped him up the minute I saw him!  His foster mom had come to deliver Jada (renamed Maggie) to my parents and pick him up from another foster mom to take back to Virginia with her.  I met him briefly that day and he stole my heart.  He is settling in beautifully at my house.  I call him my clumsy clown.  He loves everybody and his favorite thing to do is to lay in my lap, on his back, and have his belly rubbed.  He loves my cat and every child he has met so far.  I am so grateful to BTRNC for bringing this beautiful boy into my life!







Jada (renamed Maggie Mae)

For Mother's Day a little over 10 yrs. ago, our daughter surprised me with a 2.4lb. bundle of love and I named her Lulu Belle.  My husband already had a Boston (Muggsy) and Lulu was all mine with plenty of love, spirit and fun for over 10 yrs.  Lulu became very ill with several serious medical problems and there was just nothing our vet could do.  We had to let her go.
Isn't it interesting and wonderful when events fall in place.  Our vet said she knew a lady who never had less than 3 Bostons at one time, and she worked with Rescued Bostons. Would I like for her to call us.  Well, of course.  Our vet talked to the BT owner and told her about our loss.  It's such a small world sometimes.  It seems this lady and I had met on 2 different occasions over the years and we did remember each other.












Well, the ball started rolling!  My daughter and I had gone over the roster of available dogs so many times that I think we had all the profiles memorized.  After going through the process, when I was asked if I saw one on the web site that I was interested in, my answer was "Yes".
Maggie Mae looked to be perfect for us.  Since we are Seniors, we thought it best to go with a BT that was a little older rather than a pup.  
The day Maggie was brought to our home, I was so nervous.  Would she like us and want to live with new parents?  And I knew she was very special to her foster mother, so could she make that change?
The minute she ran up to me, I was in love again.  I  couldn't wait to see Maggie’s reaction to Muggsy.  He is almost 13 years old, almost blind, deaf, and is losing the use of his back legs due to arthritis.  Maggie and Muggsy were friends from the first meeting and this was one happy granny.
Maggie Mae is now the center of our attention...or at least she tries to keep it that way.  She has a way of getting us to do exactly what she wants us to do.  She is a keeper!
Thank you BTRNC for bringing this wonderful young lady into our lives.  After seeing in depth the way the BTRNC works, I would not hesitate to help that group and if we are ever in the position to make a loving home for another Boston we plan to keep your number handy.

Spankey and Tinkerbelle



Maizey

It's been a while since we last spoke, but I wanted to let you all know that little Maizey has got the best life a dog can have, and we love her very much. She is very sweet, and always makes us laugh. She isn't the smartest dog in the world (don't tell her I told you that), but she sure is one of the best (she is tied for best dog with Lucy, our other boston)! I have included a some pictures of Maizey so you can see how much of a queen she is in our home. 
THANKS for bringing her to us!

Mario, Robyn, and Family.

Brantley

brantley
We just adopted Brantley approximately two weeks ago and he fits in so well with our family.  It's like he has been with us forever.  We are so fortunate to have found him.  He is so well behaved and gets along with our cat and every other dog he meets.  Thanks BTRNC for opening your homes and for doing what you do to save Bostons and to find families for them.  It must have been fate that we found each other.  He is awesome! 

Thanks,  Jennifer Dillon
