Rocky is Home From Surgery
New foster Rocky needs a lot of care. This poor sweet boy was dumped at a shelter, and NEBTR has vowed that he will never know pain and neglect again. Hopefully, he knows he is in our - and your - good hands now!.
Rocky V got a graft to heal the puncture in his eye. The surgery went well and if all goes smoothly, this will allow him to keep his eye.
Thank you so much to all the offers to help with him. The honor will go to Diane Laudani on Long Island.
Diane is not far form me so transport and vet follow ups won't be a huge issue.
Thank you for all of the contributions towards his care. Keep 'em coming! He's an expensive little bugger but he is worth it.

Tootsie's Wish List!
Tootsie is settling wonderfully into her foster home, and has asked for a few essentials to help make her transition as smooth as possible.
Adoptable Pup Spotlight! LIL MEME
Lil Meme is a true Boston Terrier at heart and the cutest mix ever. This little man is a little firecracker and sweet at the same time. Lil Meme is a very
sweet boy who loves attention, cuddling and being held. He is calm and loves to
be with people. His foster mama often finds him sitting between her feet while preparing
dinner. He is wonderful with other dogs but will let them know to back off if
they are being too rough with him. He is terrific with young children. Meme is a little curious
of cats and might chase them. He is good on walks with harness, but does not care
for collars. He does show a little
fear of loud noises. He is not currently neutered but we are working on getting that done before adoption.
Lil Meme would be a great addition to any family.
He would love to be adopted with his "brother" Cayo!
Age: 1
If you you think yours might be Lil Meme's "furever home," please fill out an adoption application today.

Brendle says Thank you for his Gifts!
Brendle got some gifts from his wish list!
He received a very comfy bed which he loves! He also received a harness and a new leash and some chew sticks. No gift tag was included with some of the items but thank you to Evon Petruchkowich and the rest of the secret gifters :-)
You made him a very happy boy!

Adoptable Pup Spotlight! SOPHIE
Sophie is a 3 year old 3/4 mix Boston Terrier. She is a confident little girl, who can sit, sleep or play independently; however, she really loves to cuddle too.
She can be shy or timid around new people, but once she feels comfortable around you, she is very, very sweet. Her energy level is appropriate for her age.
When she is excited to see you, her tail will wag at warp speed!
Her foster family LOVES having her in their home for the time being... she will be missed once she is adopted, but we know there is a home out there who will gladly welcome her & who will fall in love with her quickly, just as her foster family has!
Age: 3
If you think yours might be Sophie's "furever home," please fill out an adoption application today!

Adoptable Pup Spotlight! TILLY
Sweet Tilly is all love. She comes with a few issues because of her past life as a mill mama, but we just know that the right person is out there for her. She has come very far during her few years as a foster. Grass, toys and hugs were things that Tilly never knew until she came into foster care. She must have had a very upsetting experience that involved a man, because she is still working on getting over her fear of men. She also has a little trouble with house-training, and will need someone patient to teach her and love her even when she makes mistakes. She is mostly crate-trained now, thanks to her foster mama. She is working to get past her anxiety, but finds solace in her crate where she feels safe.
She recently slept up on the sofa with her foster mom for the first time, and is starting to give her family little kisses.
Tilly is totally good with other dogs, cats and children. She is a sweet, sweet girl who deserves someone soft and caring to show her patience and unconditional love.
Age: 7
Fun Fact: Tilly spins in fast circles when she is excited or when you give her a cookie!

Rory and Charles Love Their Easter Baskets
Member dogs Rory and Charles love their Easter Baskets from Poochey Chef. They were jealous seeing the photos of all the other dogs and their treats, so they begged their Mama Ellen for baskets of their own.
And they arrived, and Rory and Charles loved them!
You can order a basket for the favorite pup in your life here:
http://nebostonrescue.com/easterbaskets.html
Chris is willing to make them up for your dogs as well. Just make sure you send her a note to indicate that the basket should be shipped to your home. Your dogs will be as happy as Rory and Charles!

Salmon Dog Treats
How to Make Dr. Ward's Salmon Dog Treats
What You'll Need:
1 7-ounce can of salmon
1/2 cup oat or quinoa flour
1 tablespoon minced parsley
1. Preheat oven to 350 F. In a medium-size bowl, mix everything until well blended.
2. Roll the mixture into 1/2-inch balls and place on a nonstick cooking sheet.
3. Bake 12-15 minutes.
(Yield: 36 treats at 10 calories each)
Note: While the recipe calls for baking for as long as 15 minutes, Deborah recommends baking them for as long as 40 minutes instead. This "makes them extra crispy, and I think that extends their shelf life," she says.
Ward also has this footnote on the recipe: If you don't have oat flour, blend dry oats in a food processor. Substitute quinoa or amaranth if oats aren't available.

Thank You From Prince
Prince says thank you for the goodies Jim and Stacey Kyle. He LOVES them!

New Foster Rocky V
What do you do when you hear about an elderly Boston in pain, alone and abandoned and frightened? Here's what NEBTR did.
Our wonderful intake coordinator Jerrilyn received a message from a Massachusetts shelter. A Senior Boston named Rocky had been turned over to them in very bad shape by his owner, requiring immediate and costly medical care.
Not only was he obviously neglected, but he had run into a piece of fence in the yard and punctured his eye and the owner could not or would not afford care.
So they left him at the shelter. He would have to wait three days until the shelter medical staff could help him.
When Jerrilyn heard about Rocky's plight, she pictured this frail old man with severe eye trauma, in pain, sitting alone in the shelter for three days and nights.
She went right up and got him out of the shelter, and will bring him to NEBTR territory to get medical care and find a foster home for him.
We know you all would have done the same thing, and thank you in advance for helping us to get the care that he needs.

Adoptable Pup Spotlight! BENJAMIN
Benjamin is a very special boy who unfortunately has a rather sad story. He was scheduled to be euthanized on Thanksgiving, but the vet couldn't do it and called NEBTR - thank goodness.
Benji is a loving senior who wants nothing more than a human to call his own. Unfortunately, his experiences in life have left him very anxious to be alone, and he doesn't really get along with other pets. The perfect match for Benji would be a loving person who could stay home with him and give him love.
Additionally, Benji has some medical issues that require specialized food or home-cooked meals. We realize that Benji may take a little extra care, but hope that someone special will come forward and love him. He's worth it.
Fun Facts: Benji is the very best dog on a leash he prances like a show dog and walks proud, he loves all the neighbors and greets them with a wiggle. He is also a real ladies man, he loves to look at the girls with his big bedroom eyes and get all the kisses he can! Let's say he's very successful!
