My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

F - 7 years old - Boston Terrier Mix -

True to her name, Chamomile is the calmer, softer, slightly more sensible half of her bonded pair. She is sweet, affectionate, and happy to stay close to her people. While she still has that classic Boston sparkle, she’s less chaotic than her brother and balances him beautifully.

The bond between her and her brother Fenway is something truly special. They are deeply connected. When separated, he cries and howls for her. She is his comfort and his anchor, especially throughout their shelter life journey. They nap together, move together, and look for each other instinctively. Wherever Chamomile goes, he follows.

Recently, Chamomile was found to have an enlarged lymph node. X-rays have shown that the cancer has not spread to her lungs, which is encouraging. At this time, there are two paths forward: surgical removal of the lymph node and tumor with biopsy to determine grade (though high-grade cancer is suspected and recurrence is likely), or hospice care, focusing on keeping her comfortable and cherished for whatever time she has.

Through it all, Chamomile remains the same loving girl. She still seeks affection, still enjoys being near her people, and still finds comfort curled up beside her brother.

Chamomile will need a very special home, one that understands both the medical road ahead and the importance of keeping this bonded pair together. In return, she offers quiet devotion, tender companionship, and a love story between siblings that is impossible not to feel.
