We are now fostering a BT male pup, Brody.  If it works out with Rambo, we will adopt him. 

That's me holding Bo and Bro.    Bo is the one on the left wearing his "Tricks-for-Treats" bandana....thank you BTDeb.

So far, they're playing, running and getting along really good.  This will help the RA!!!!

Take care.

Thanks for the pics and little story. I sure do think the rescue and adoption of animals is important. We started so many years ago with a little special needs Sheltie who was rescued from a puppy mill and had a very bad heart murmur. She lived in our loving embrace a lot longer than anyone thought she would.
Then there is Darwin, my hurricane Katrina displaced dachshund who is such a joy in my life.
Now, as I told you, My youngest daughter, who is 21 and in college, has started with a greyhound rescue group. She is very active with them and has fostered 3. The first one she fostered she called her 'failed' foster since she fell in love and adopted her. The second one was not a good fit for her and had to be placed in another foster home. She now has another foster and he is a great dog. Fortunately, she is out of crate room in her tiny apt and can't take any more. It is so funny to see her in her little Honda Civic with 2 big dogs sitting in the back seat looking like they are out in their limo. Melissa only weighs about 100 lbs herself and it is also comical watching her walk those 2 big dogs.
Hugs, Tish

Thanks, y'all, for your most kind words for the three of us!!!

Actually, Rambo (Bo) is also a rescue.  An elderly gentleman had to go into a nursing home, so we adopted Bo.....a win-win situation.   We visit him with Bo as much as possible.

We have had BTs since we first got married 42 years ago. Brody (Bro) is #6.

Take care.

I think Brody needs to come live with Aunt Deb and her crazy Boston bunch.

Well, after seeing Bro's beautiful face I only have one word for you - KEEPER!!!

And I knew Bo would welcome Brody in with open paws. They are so cute together.  And in the words of Groucho Marx, you're not so bad yourself

What a really cute picture...

Brenna, I want to see photos of your mom's boston dressed for Halloween, please!

Brody looks like a sweetie and I hope the two get on well. You and Deb should meet and send us all a batch of those sweet pup pictures.
