I recieved a plea from a Lady in Colorado several months ago saying she was coming down at the end of September to put both her parents in a nursing home and wondered if I could help them find a good home for their Boston Dixie. Naturally I said yes. She asked if we could take her on the last day before they went into the nursing home so they could love her as long as possible and I had no problems with that. She did tell me that she has storm phobia and when you went to put her in a crate she would bite you.

I picked her up and we have had some major thunderstorms through hers since I did and I haven't had any problems with her trying to bite me, but then again I don't try and put her in a crate either. She goes behind my bed and shivers a bit, but other than that she is just fine.

Dixie is a ball player extroidenaire as you can see in the photos. I was holding up a ball and she really wanted me to throw it for her. The owners said she would play fetch with you as long as you wanted.

This is a sweet little older girl who is a bit overwhelmed by all the dogs here, but learning they ain't gonna eat her. Dixie is loving and sweet. She is housebroken per the owner and I haven't seen anything to dispute that.

I think that Dixie would be good for an older couple since her family was an older couple. She is a quiet dog who wants to be loved and loves to play if you want to play, but she is not obnoxious about it like some dogs. :)

If you are looking for a great little girl, then Dixie is one you should look hard at cause she is what a Boston is supposed to be, friendly, lively, yet capable of calming down and just interested in everything going on around her.

About Our Rescue Group...

We are a small, dedicated group of Boston Terrier-loving volunteers based in North Texas. While we are currently awaiting our 501(c)3 status, we're busy rescuing, training, transporting, vetting, coordinating and fundraising. All for the love of our chosen breed, the Boston Terrier.

All Bostons that come into ABTR are fully vetted, heartworm checked, spayed/neutered and lived with to ensure a good fit into a new home. We never turn away a Boston in need.

ALL Bostons deserve a loving home. We accept all Bostons, regardless of age or health.
(We will not accept dogs that exhibit human aggression or are excessively dog aggressive.)

Please note that the adoption process begins with an adoption application. Incomplete apps will not be considered.

We are not a shelter and do not have visiting hours. All our Bostons are fostered in loving private homes.

All adoptions require an adoption fee.

Payment options include cash, money order, cashiers check or paypal.

ABTR is a non-profit rescue organization. All fees and donations are applied to Boston Terriers in need.

Come Meet Our Pets...

We do not do adoption events. We feel that exposes the dogs to too much stress. Our adopters meet our dogs after they have completed the adoption application and are approved to adopt. This saves us much time and effort that can be spent on caring for the dogs. Plus that way they meet the dogs that are CURRENTLY available for adoption and are not dissapointed because a dog they were interested in has been adopted to someone else who was approved before they were.

Our Adoption Process...

Adoption application must be completed.

We check vet and personal references.

A home visit is conducted.

Then Wanda calls and speaks to you about all the dogs CURRENTLY available that are a suitable match for your family. A decision is made about who is most suitable. Then you sign the adoption agreement, pay the adoption fees, and adopt the dog.

We do transport out of state at the adopter's expense in addition to the adoption fee. Airfare is $175 plus crate and health certificate $60 plus adoption fee.

Adoption fees vary depending upon costs of vetting and age of dog. Puppies under 6 months are $400 as they are the most desired of all the dogs and they help pay the vet bills on the older dogs.

We do have a senior for senior program for persons over 70 wanting to adopt a dog over 9.

We Serve the Following Cities, Towns, and/or Counties...

ABTR will proudly ship a dog via airline to anywhere in the US or Canada.. at the adopter's expense in addition to the adoption fee. Airfare is $215 plus crate and health certificate $85 plus adoption fee
