Welcome Yahzee

Well, we have a new addition to our family. He is a 6 year old Boston Terrier named Yahzee. He has not had a teriffic life, he was used as a breeding dog. Has probably spent a lot of time in a cage. His teeth are in bad shape it appears from possibly chewing on the cage door. speculation, but this is what was suspected. He was at a breeders auction. This is what happens to those guys. They are "used up" and then sold on the auction block. If they don't sell, they are sometimes destroyed. this was his last scheduled day on earth. He was one of the last dogs left. The Midwest Boston Terrier Rescue organization had a lady there that bought him for $25. Brought him home to foster him. AT 6 years old, this sweet guy didn't even know how to play. Was very despondent. Just sat around. He has come a long way since July. He came home to live with us a week ago Friday. He LOVES Annalynn. Smudge is doing a good job teaching him to play and chase the cat. He seems SO grateful. He loves to cuddle right up with Annalynn and sleep preferably on her pillow. I put her to bed a few nights ago and went up an hour later to check on her. There she was, her blankie wrapped around him and her arm around his neck. They were both fast asleep. He is patient, sweet natured. Just a good ol boy. We already love him tons. Obie would be happy. In a couple months we will probably start fostering. Taking others in til they can find homes. If anyone would like to help out, go to midwestbtrescue.org and buy a calendar or some cards or maybe you can make a one time donation to keep the website up or donate in some doggie's name to help with a surgery. There are links to vendors that donate to Midwest if you want to do some holiday pet shopping...........This is a GREAT organization. Thanks for reading.
