Story
Meet Tawny! She is an eight-year-young Boston Terrier/Chihuahua mix who weighs 12 lbs. Tawny's favorite human recently passed away and unfortunately the family did not want to keep her and she ended up and the shelter scared and confused. But now she is living in a loving foster home and adjusting to a new life. Tawny loves other dogs but she loves them on her time and needs time to warm up. She can be a little hungry for affection which in turn can make her a little grouchy if another pup tries to steal her human from her but it’s easily corrected as she is so intelligent and a pleaser. She is definitely a sassy and sweet girl who loves to walk but is fairly low energy. She is great traveling partner in the car and absolutely loves children! Tawny is the ultimate snuggle buddy who is so easy. She is potty trained, crate trained and leash trained. She would make an excellent addition to anyone that has experience with spicy pups and can give her the love she is missing from her human in heaven.

Dog Rescue website and complete an adoption application: www.icaredogrescue.org/ready-to-adopt Adoption fee includes: spay/neuter • shots up to date • micro-chip • fecal and vet check Breeds and age are not guaranteed.

Story
Get out of the way and make room for Graham.  The most entertaining, 10-pound, vintage American Gentleman you might have the opportunity to meet.  A few weeks ago, social media was all a buzz.  Everyone was advocating to save the senior Boston Terrier that was at the Downey Shelter.  Our Rescue Director rushed to LA to pull the frail old guy and get him vetted and into a foster home.  Well… to all of our amazement – the skinny, 12-year-old BT, the shelter named Graham is full of life, curiosity and agility.  While it is obvious, he needs to gain a few pounds, this guy eats like a champ and has more energy than dogs half his age.  Constantly on the go and hard at work making sure things are as they should be.  Graham is the self-appointed “Supervisor” of everything his foster mom does.  If she opens a closet door, he is going in to make sure everything is organized to his liking.  If you open a cabinet, he is going to scale the shelves to make sure they are up to code.  Do you need help with household chore?   This guy is right there checking out the dishwasher, washing machine and dryer.  He believes in efficiency and getting things done.  His Foster Dad is trying to teach this old dog new tricks.  Graham will use the doggie door to go outside but sometimes he will come back inside and potty.  Very much a work in progress.  Leash walking seems totally foreign to him.  He will just “refuse” to walk.  Not really a big deal because he is so small, there is no problem just carrying him around.  In fact, he would love if you just carried him around all day long.  He LOVES people and is great with other dogs.  He lives with several other dogs and gets along with all of them.  When in the car he prefers to ride in your lap.  Many times, when we bring senior dogs into rescue they just stay with their initial foster because we know their time is limited.  That truly is not the case with Graham.  He is ready to take on the world.  Graham is neutered, microchipped, up to date on vaccines and fecal and heartworm tested (both negative). We have been putting a nonprescription eye lube into his eyes a couple times a day just to keep him comfortable.  His vision might not be 100% but he sees well enough to navigate wherever he might want to go.  If you are looking for a dog to keep you laughing and put a smile on the faces of everyone the 2 of you come into contact with – then Graham is the guy for you.  Jump on over to our website: www.bostonbuddies.org and complete an adoption application.

Story
Beau has been a busy guy since coming into rescue.  You might recall that upon his arrival it was discovered that he had squamous cell carcinoma.  Pretty scary stuff, but the doctors at the Veterinary Specialty Hospital were able to help. On July 3rd, Beau underwent a penectomy. This procedure is the most common treatment for penile cancer. The goal was to remove all of the cancer, and we are happy to report the procedure was a complete success.  Beau is now cancer free!!  He has fully recovered from his surgery, no medications or additional treatments are required. Our handsome gentleman has a whole new lease on life and is looking for a family to share it with.  Beau is an energetic and playful guy.  He is dog friendly, great on leash and in the car.  Uses the doggie door to take care of his  business.  He can be a bit vocal when he is unhappy about being left alone, but his foster family has monitored him with their inhome cameras and he mellows out after a few minutes.   Beau is estimated to be 7 years old, weighs 22 pounds and has a beautiful reddish/brow coat.  Beau is neutered, microchipped and up to date on vaccines.  If you ever wanted your very own "Super Hero", than this resilient warrior is the guy for you.  Head on over to our website and complete an adoption application.  https://www.bostonbuddies.org/adoption-application/ Adoption Donation $300.00 September 29, 2024, 8:38 pm

Story
You may have seen Carl looking for a home earlier this year. We thought we had found the perfect match for him with a family that was committed to following the rules that came with Carl and continue his training he learned while in board and train. We were explicitly clear with them that Carl is going to be an only dog and is not your dog park kind of a guy. They assured us they were fine with Carl being an only dog. Alas, Carl is back looking for a home after his adopters did not follow the rules and allowed Carl to make bad choices. And then they decided that Carl needed to meet other dogs – that did not go well – especially because Carl knew he could get away with bad choices. So here he is paying the price. We apologized to Carl and told him we would be sure to find him a family that will follow through with what he needs – a leader and someone able and willing to make him follow rules. Carl came to Boston Buddies after being dropped in the overnight box at the Devore Shelter. Thankfully that’s in the past, now Carl is safe, living the good life , and hoping to find his new family! Car is just 2 years old and weighs 20 lbs. Carl is a dreamboat of a dog and super cute with mesmerizing soulful eyes and an irrestible “no way you can’t fall in love’ mug – which can lead a lot of people to excuse his bad choices. That is not what Carl needs. Carl is most happy with a person who will hold him accountable and also engage him in the games and fun that feed his soul with joy. Carl will do best as an only pet in a home with a yard so he can run and play with abandon in his own space. Carl loves to play tug and is learning how to do agility and his trainer thinks he would do great in “bite work” which is a great skill that you can learn with him to increase your bond with your new boy – and you can also show it off to your friends – how many of them have a dog that can do bite work?! We do know that without a doubt he will absolutely steal your heart. Carl is pretty much the perfect package for anything you’re up to. Whether you’re out on a structured walk, enjoying a hike in the hills, looking for some sweet lap sits and snuggles, or needing a cuddle buddy on the couch, you can always count on Carl! Simply put, you won’t find a happier, healthier, more handsome guy than our charming Carl. If you’re ready to be swept off your feet by one of the most delightful dogs you’ll ever meet, fill out an ADOPTION application for CARL on our website Bostonbuddies.org Adoption fee $450 For a video showing off all the skills Carl has click here (note that although the video shows Carl with another dog that is the trainers personal dog who is well balanced and the introduction was done by professionals – we are only looking for an only pet home for Carl) - https://www.magisto.com/video/P14bIEEHADMuUQNiCzE?l=vsm...

Story
Lookin’ for the Thelma to your Louise, the Timone to your Pumba, the Joey to your Chandler—we’re talkin’ top notch best friend til the end?! Well lucky you my friend, say hello to SHADOW! True to his name, Shadow can’t wait to be behind you, in front of you, any and everywhere with you, but most importantly beside you for the rest of time! Shadow came from the Orange County Shelter and is 11 years young; he’s playful, yet calm, and loves to have fun! And by fun we mean belly rubs, and back scratches, and copious amounts of cuddling…and a few chew toys in between! A true Black Satin Gentleman, Shadow walks well on his leash (unless he sees a cheeky squirrel), sleeps soundly through the night (preferably under the covers, on top of the covers, in or on your bed), is crate trained, doesn’t mind freshening up in the bath, and is housebroken. He is gets along with other dogs and does well with them during meet and greets on his walks! The sweetest little meatball of a Boston boy, Shadow lives for meal time and hasn’t met a treat he doesn’t like to eat, and will happily sit for any snack. Ready and waiting for your next adventure, whether it’s a road trip or a trip to the store, Shadow does well in the car and can’t wait to partake! He’s an overall healthy and happy guy; he just got a mass removed from his leg with clean margins, Vet found a slight heart murmur, cardiologist ran tests- no meds needed at this time. Shadow is up to date on vaccines, heart worm and fecal tested, and microchipped. Eagerly waiting to be your constant companion, your go to guy, your very best and loyal friend until the end—please fill out an ADOPTION application for SHADOW on our website www.bostonbuddies.org “Thorns may hurt you, men desert you, sunlight turn to fog; but you’re never friendless ever, if you have a dog.” —Douglas Malloch September 29, 2024, 8:38 pm

Marchand came from a backyard breeder that decided they no longer wanted to breed so they no longer wanted the dogs. We took him and 3 others. Overall they are fairly healthy considering the breed. His breathing is loud but effective.  He appears to have already had soft palate resection surgery but still has issues breathing. He does ok in a quiet and cool environment so he is going to need a special home that understands him. He’s so sweet and happy, it’s impossible not to love him.
