It looks like you should get the adoption papers ready. What a cutie!

Glad to hear that Terry is on the mend. :)

awwwww tab :)...

your sweet babe... cute puppy tooo :)

I swear animals that need help are just drawn to you

No kidding!

He is not as much 'fun' as the other younger dogs we have found. You have to annouce you are there or you will spook him when you touch him. He is not playful at all of course. We pat on him a lot & talk real loud. He has been enjoying marking his teritory when we take him out back, so I guess he is feeling better. He is learning to get around in the cast pretty well too. He scarfs down his food very quickly. We had a lady call & say she wanted him if we can't find his home. She may not be as eager once she discovers just how old & blind he is, I told her & she was OK w/ it on the phone. Her old terrier died a couple months ago & she wants another.
 
You can tell, he is feeeling better.



The kids call him Terry, but I think his name is Walter :wink: .
 
Gosh, he is marked really well and is a good looking dog, for an old coot. I'll bet he was a beautiful dog when he was younger. I have never seen a Boston that color before. They are great little dogs but are prone to getting cataracts. He does look fit though! God bless you Tabitha. You are a sweetheart. I wish I could take him, I love old dogs.
 
Tabitha, you're a hero. It just kills me when animals are suffering. It rips my heart out. I'm so glad he had you for an angel. I love him already.
 
Today he got real frisky. For the `1st time I layed down next to him. We are still getting a feel for him. He got all ecited, he started rooting like he was trying to get under me & his tall was wagging & he kept trying to lick me in the face then he let out the funnies little squeaky howl like he was so excited he could not contain himself :p .
 
Just adorable.
Poor little thing - glad he's doing better!
 
They removed Terry's eyeball today. I took him in because his cataract eye was realy bulging out & red. They said the cataract had a massive ulcer & would burst & cause his eye lens to fall off :shock: . So they removed it.

The cast on his leg/foot was not due to come off but they said he healed quick so they removed the cast too. He went from 16 pounds to 20 1/2 in the 3 weeks we have had him!

Our vet is so amazingly cheap, the eye procedure was $120.00. That would not get you an office visit where we took our pets in Dallas.

They have no office visit charge. You pay only for meds, tests, procedures etc. All check up's are free. They say it keep their customers coming back.
 
That is one lucky pooch!

Glad to hear his recovery is going so well! :)
