Boston Terrier puppies and dogs in Washington

Some dogs have personalities that are impossible to put into words... until you meet Thor Goodwin. He's the kind of dog that somehow manages to make every day feel a little happier just by being himself. Whether he's bouncing around with excitement because someone picked up a tennis ball, proudly showing off his latest game of fetch, or simply greeting you with his goofy grin and wagging tail, Thor has a way of making everyone around him smile. He's joyful, funny, endlessly entertaining, and genuinely seems to believe that every single day is the best day ever. If you're looking for a dog that brings laughter, adventure, and plenty of personality wherever he goes, Thor is ready for the job. Watch his video and prepare to fall in love with this happy-go-lucky goofball: https://youtu.be/UXNXVX_W_Os?si=jWoURWLMyvEhd96d Thor is approximately 2 years old, currently weighs around 29 lbs, and we believe he may be a Boston Terrier mix. As with any rescue dog, breed is always a bit of a mystery, but one thing we know for sure is that Thor is 100% awesome. Thor is currently being fostered with a family that has both a 3-year-old and a 13-year-old, and it's safe to say he bounced right into that “family” dynamic seamlessly. In fact, he and the 13-year-old are practically attached at the hip. Whether they're outside playing fetch, tossing toys around the backyard, or simply hanging out together, they're almost always side by side. His foster truly believes he'd make an incredible family dog, and after spending time with him, it's easy to understand why. One of Thor's favorite things in the world is playing fetch. Throw a ball once, and you've officially made his day. He's also a toy enthusiast and loves any excuse to play. When playtime is over, though, he's perfectly content hanging out nearby with his people. He's affectionate without being overly clingy. Don't expect him to climb into your lap for hours at a time, but don't be surprised if he chooses the spot right beside you instead. Sometimes even close enough that your feet are touching. It's his quiet way of saying, "I'm happiest just being with you." If treats are involved, Thor is even more motivated. He's eager to please, already knows how to sit, and seems genuinely excited to learn. His foster says he'd do just about anything for a good snack, which makes training both fun and rewarding. Around the house, Thor has been a wonderful guest. While he doesn't use a crate in his foster home, he relaxes comfortably in the laundry room whenever the family leaves and has done beautifully there. He hasn't had accidents indoors, doesn't make messes, and his foster laughs that she almost always comes home to find he's carefully arranged his blankets into the perfect little nest before settling in for a nap. Apparently, comfort is serious business. Thor also shares his foster home with an older male Pug. Since the Pug isn't particularly interested in playing, the two mostly coexist peacefully and enjoy each other's company. If you'd like to learn more about how Thor might do with your dog, we're always happy to arrange a meet-and-greet with a dog similar to yours. Like any young dog, Thor is still polishing a few things. He gets so excited to see people that he sometimes jumps up to say hello, and when he's feeling especially playful, he can be a little mouthy with adults and the 13-year-old. Interestingly, his foster says he's incredibly gentle with the family's 3-year-old and seems to naturally understand that little humans require a softer approach. With continued consistency and positive reinforcement, we think he'll continue maturing into an exceptional companion. Thor would thrive with a family that's looking for a dog who knows how to make the most out of life. He's playful without being overwhelming, affectionate without being needy, and has the kind of joyful personality that's impossible not to love. If you've been searching for a best friend who will happily play fetch in the backyard, make you laugh on a daily basis, and remind you to find joy in the little things, Thor is more than ready to become part of your family. We are willing to test Thor Goodwin with anything you need in order to ensure it's a perfect match. We can make anything happen! Just let us know. Ready to welcome a new furry friend into your life?

FOREVER HOME NEEDED (currently in foster care) Meet Tammy! Tammy is a 5-year-old, 49 lb Boston Terrier/Bulldog mix who came to us from an overcrowded shelter. Since settling into foster care, this sweet girl has truly blossomed and shown everyone what a loyal, loving companion she is. Tammy is house-trained and has formed an deep bond with her foster family. She loves being close to her people, happily following them from room to room. If you’re looking for a dog who wants to be your constant sidekick, Tammy is your girl. Whether it’s running errands, going on walks, or joining you for everyday outings, she’s happiest simply being by your side. She enjoys getting out to explore and would love an active home that includes her in daily adventures. Tammy also loves having a yard where she can run, play, and stretch her legs, so she’s looking for a standalone home with a securely fenced yard where she can enjoy plenty of outdoor time. Tammy has done well with other dogs and could happily live with a compatible canine companion. That said, she also wouldn’t mind being someone’s one-and-only so she can soak up all the love and attention for herself. If you’re searching for a loyal best friend who will adore spending every moment with you, Tammy is ready to fill that role. She’s a wonderful companion with so much love to give and can’t wait to find a family to call her own! Tammy is UTD on vaccinations, microchipped, and spayed. Her adoption fee is $450.

Hi! I’m Rosie! I’m 9 years old and weigh 21lbs. Everyone who meets me says I’m a total sweetheart, and I’ll make you smile all day long! I get along great with other dogs, and am highly social - as long as the dogs are well socialized, we will get along great! Cats and kids, though, are not for me. I’ve never been around either and they make me nervous, so I want to chase them down! Not a good situation for any of us! But I really, really love people. I love to snuggle on the couch or in bed just as much as I love taking walks. I currently walk two times a day with my foster family for 1-1.5 miles each time. I would LOVE to be your walking buddy. I’m also a super smart girl, which can get me in a little trouble! I can open my crate by myself, and now my mom has to use an extra latch to keep me safe in there. I can open doors and gates, so I’m what the rescue calls a “high flight risk,” I just love mischief! But it could be unsafe for me to get out, so it’s important that I be kept safe and secure and that my family is very mindful of this. I’m house trained and mostly crate trained. Like I said, I can get out of my crate, but I can also be trusted to be left out in the house for short periods of time. I’d do best with someone who works from home so I can be near them all day. Plus then we can take walks when they need a break! Here's a little more about me: Housetrained? Yes Leash-trained? Yes Rides well in a car? Yes Good with other dogs? Yes Good with cats? No Good with young children? No Good with strangers? Yes Shy or confident? Confident Apartment Friendly? No, I like to have time outside in my yard in addition to my walks.

Meet Ian – Your Slightly Wonky, Totally Wonderful Adventure Buddy If you like piña coladas and getting caught in the rain… Ian might just be your perfect match. This little Boston Terrier mix lives life full throttle—zooming through the yard like he’s racing in the Indy 500, making pit stops in imaginary swamps with Shrek, and embracing every muddy, joy-filled moment along the way (bonus points if you don’t mind getting a little dirty with him). Ian is a young, playful pup with a heart as big as his personality. He came into rescue with a shattered hip that has since healed, leaving him with an adorable “wonky” gait. When he runs, his back leg sometimes flails out to the side—but it doesn’t slow him down one bit. If anything, it just makes him even more unforgettable. Personality & Play Style: Ian is a social, toy-loving goofball who thrives on fun. He always has a toy in his mouth—seriously, always. He’ll take them outside, bring them back in, and politely “check” them at the door until you hand them back. He loves playing with other dogs, especially games of chase and keep-away. After playtime, Ian enjoys winding down with his favorite toy and appreciates a little personal space during his chill time. Because of this, he’d do best with a laid-back, respectful dog companion—especially one around his size or slightly smaller who won’t bother him when he’s relaxing. Snuggles Included: Once the zoomies are out, Ian is all about couch time. He’ll curl up beside you, toy in tow, and drift off while you watch TV. The perfect mix of playful and snuggly. Communication Style (aka his signature move): Ian has the best voice—a raspy, screechy, baby pterodactyl sound that he proudly uses to let you know when he’s ready to come out of his crate or needs a potty break. It’s hilarious, endearing, and very effective. He’ll also quietly go sit by the door, so keep an eye out—he’s a good boy who just needs you to notice his polite signals. Mealtime & Care: Ian is an enthusiastic foodie, so he uses a slow feeder bowl to keep mealtime safe and comfortable. Medical Transparency: Due to his past injury, Ian has diabetes insipidus. The good news: • No injections required • Managed with oral medication twice daily • Just needs a few extra potty breaks His condition is well-managed, and he’s living a happy, active, zoomie-filled life. The Perfect Home for Ian: • An active home that enjoys play, laughter, and a little chaos • A consistent adopter who can manage his simple medical routine • A respectful dog companion—or he’d love being your one and only • Someone who appreciates a quirky, lovable personality Ian isn’t just a dog—he’s an experience. He’ll make you laugh daily, keep life interesting, and then curl up next to you like he’s always belonged there. Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $450 (includes transport to your area)

Sweet Titus came into rescue as his family could no longer care for him. They had him since a puppy. As far as seniors go he’s healthy and continues to be an active Boston Terrier . Enjoys walks, playing in the yard and being your wingman on a road trip! In between would love to snuggle with you on the couch and maybe even sleep in your bed! House trained, crate trained. But would be happiest in a home where his person works from home or is an active retiree. He is fine with other dogs, has lived with 2 large dogs and 2 Bostons- required proper intro as he can be shy and nervous at first. Older respectful children would be fine, a calm environment is best. Fenced yard as he loves roaming the yard, soaking up the sun and playing. A flight risk as he will slip out the door given the chance. Must be mindful of his safety . He’s an all around good boy who is so deserving of a loving family♥️ Is it you?
