Festa Clan Wins First Place

Uncle Fester had to stay home.... He's still on bed rest, but Otis and his gang of mobsters and flappers were out in full force :)

New Foster Jameson

Jameson (on right) was a good little girl all the way home. she slept all the way.

When we got home, she was met by my whole pack, but after a few minutes, everyone settled down and we all went to bed. It was a very quiet night. she slept all night long in a blanket filled crate.

This morning, well...let's just say she is a fast little girl, runs around like she is a tornado. So extra caution must be taken because sometimes the greyhounds will think its a race and they will chase her.

Jameson is a very young dog. I am sure she will not be here long as she should be ready in her allotted time for her new home. I am hopeful that there will be applicants approved so Jameson can start her new life ASAP. Not that I will be in a hurry to send her. She is very sweet.

She is a cuddle bug! Loves to be held, loves to lay on laps and listens very well.
No potty issues yet. She goes outside with the rest of them. and will pee on command. (I think she likes it when I clap and tell her good girl) LOL

Happy Ending for Tiny

Tiny was adopted on Monday by Kathy and Chris Thomforde. Tiny was put on craigslist by her former owner and we were able to get her pulled off fast, especially since she wasn't fixed.

Tiny is a super sweet playful little girl. She is just a little bundle of sweetness. She and our Penny had the best time playing and wrestling.

Tiny's daddy is the president of Moravian college, making Tiny the "first dog" of Moravian.

Her mom gave me an update on Tuesday night that everything was going wonderfully. Tiny met lots of the college staff, went for walks, and snuggled up for hours with her mommy. They are going to get her enrolled in some training classes soon. Kathy said that she is just on Cloud 9 and totally in love!

Im so happy for Tiny!

Vivienne the Model

Vivienne, who owns Jerrilyn Walter of New Rochelle, New York, has been a busy girl. She has been scoring some modeling gigs lately. She did a Kohls ad and recently a White House Black Market catalogue. Her mama is so proud of her!

They have decided that they would like to give the proceeds from her latest shoot to NEBTR so we can continue to do such great work and take in all the doggies who need us! She made $300 last time just for being so lovely.

She is quite beautiful but she has a big big heart as well :) Thank you Vivienne and Jerrilyn!

New Foster Trooper

Trooper loves the car!



Trooper went to the vet today and got all fixed up. He was neutered, and had to have 2 teeth extracted. They trimmed his nails a little bit more & cleaned his ears. Dr. Tack is wonderful & very kind. He is at home now resting. I hope this helps some with his marking around the house.

He is a very good dog & very sweet. Now that he is allowed to roam the house, he doesn't cry at night anymore. I crate him overnight with my Zoey and he is quite comfortable with her. Soon he will be ready to start looking for a furever home. i keep saying how sweet he is. He doesn't bark much (just when we first got him & he had to stay separated from the other dogs for the first week), he's very kind, not dominating at all but very passive with me & both my bt's and anyone else who has come into the house. Not even one tiny bit of food aggression which i cant get over since he was homeless for who knows how long. And they even said at the vets that he was passive with their big resident siamese cat.

Just overall a really great dog! Breaks my heart to know he was walking the streets of Philly.

Happy Birthday Beadoe

NEBTR Online Silent Auction

Get ready to bid on exciting gifts and services, all donated by NEBTR members. All proceeds go to NEBTR to help Boston Terrier rescues and fosters. You have seen the work we do, you have read about all the happy tails we have achieved. Now, you can help us continue our work, by bidding on the items listed on our auction page, the NEBTR Silent Auction. There are over 80 items!!

As some of you may know, for the first time since our inception, NEBTR is faced with a tremendous financial situation that could ultimately result in us refusing to take in dogs. We have had a large number of dogs surrendered so far this year. In August, we surpassed our entire 2010 foster dogs intake. Our vet expenses are over the top and our funds are low. We’ve spent $20k in two months! We don’t want to say “no” to any dog we know we would otherwise be able to take, rehab and find a new forever home. It tears us up to think that is the position we find ourselves in. By participating in this auction, you can help us keep up our mission!

Bidding Ends: Thusday, November 10 at the time listed for each item individually. Check out the bid listing for each individual item.
Location: ONLINE ONLY!
Winners Annouced: On this auction website. If you are a winner, an email will be sent to you for payment. You must pay by Paypal by November 20. The donator of each item will ship it to the winning bidder by November 23, if payment has been made.

Next to bid amount, place your bid. Do it in the form of dollars and cents, like 5.00 Do NOT put in a dollar sign in front of your bid.

Happy Ending for Riley

Riley came to me because after 8 years his family was surrendering because of children.
The poor boy spent the last 2 years of his life in a crate and sucking on a football....
but now he is living large with Andrea ....

-- Carolyn McCarthy

"Hi Carolyn:

Hope all is well with you and all your fosters! I just wanted you to know that I just love, love, love Riley! We have bonded so well. He actually gave up the football. He stopped sucking on them and then started destroying them like most Bostons do! I got him a kong and a rope and some other toys that he loves and chews on. He no longer needs his pacifier.

Everyone that meets him loves him. He is a great dog and I want to thank you again for bringing him to me. I attached some new photos.

Regards,

Andrea Giordano"

Boston Terrier Sexy and I Know It

Update on Macy

Hi Everyone,

I just wanted to pass this along. For October I had to send physical
Anniversary cards to people who don't have email. So today I received a
note from Lillian Horton. She adopted Macy in 10/2009, who was fostered
by Vickie Rowe. Lillian said

"Macy is the best dog and we get along very well. She goes where I go if
an animal is allowed. She sleeps with me. And eats the same time as I.
How lucky I am to have her. She is a good friend."

A very nice update.
