EVEN THE MOST SEASONED FOSTER MOM CAN FALL
Fall in love that is, with that one special foster who convinces Mom can he or she is already home.
Meet Elaine, one of our "back bone" volunteers who is always willing to drive, attend, fund raise and of course foster. Elaine has fostered more fur babies in the last 5 years than the Boastful Boston could ever try to count. Along the way, she has served as sanctuary for the un-adoptable and whelped a few litters of puppies. All in a days work, she would tell you. There is always room for just one more on a temporary basis.

Now meet Terri, the little girl that came to Elaine's house and never left. Can you blame her - just look at that face.















Terri came into rescue mostly blind and needing cataract surgery which she got. Elaine helped Terri through her recovery and that dreaded cone that many dogs need to wear for a variety of reason and none of them enjoy.



Terri can see now! She sees her forever boston siblings and the parade of fosters who pass through her doors on the way to their forever homes. She sees her forever Mom who rescued her, helped her to see and who loves her for today, tomorrow and always. She has her own toys now and her own blanket.



Terri is home now and if Elaine looses her, she need look no further than her heels because Terri sticks close to this wonderful woman who decided she was there to stay!
