| BEAUREGARD TANNER "Bogey" Born: July 11, 2000 |
| When we lost our sweet JJJingles at the young age of 7 1/2, Bosley, my husband and I were devastated and lonely. Bosley's deafness made him very dependent on JJ and he had never been left alone. Having another dog for a companion not only for Bosley, but for us was the best decision! Our search to add to our family had begun. When we saw Bogey it was love at first sight!! We had never seen a Red/White Boston. When I held him the first time, he took his wet nose and placed it against my neck and buried his head. The entire time I held him he just kept his head nuzzled in my neck. It was as if to say, take me home. Well that is just what we did, the next day we brought him home. Bogey is 9 now and definetly is a momma's boy. Amazingly, he knew that his older brother was deaf .... yes he really did! He would let Bosley know when we were home by finding him, no matter where he was and got his attention by pawing at him as if to say, hey Mom and Dad are home!! He also would follow him everywhere. He constantly licked his face, eyes, ears and mouth. When we lost Bosley in Apr, 2008, he was really lost and mourned for him terribly. He now has a little wrangler, Wyatt Earp, to wrestle with and I am sure he will be teaching him the ropes. Bogey has many names, WiggleButt is just one as he wiggles his butt like crazy whenever he gets excited. He is a delight to be around, very quiet and well mannered. Note: While researching JJ's illness on the internet, I had also found a couple of Boston Terrier message boards. After getting Bogey and joining these, I learned about backyard breeders, puppymills and puppy brokers. This peaked my interest and I started doing more research. After receiving Bogey's papers, it was then realized that we had gotten Bogey from a puppy broker that had purchased the litter from USDA licensed puppymiller. Buyer beware...always do your research before looking to add a beloved pet to your family. Make sure you know who you are buying from, that they are a reputable breeder, doing the proper testing, and breeding to better the breed. |
