Hi! My name is Ranger. I know, I know! I don’t look anything like a Boston Terrier. So what am I doing here? I’m glad you asked! Here is my story…
I have no idea where my family is (if I have one) or how I ended up living with a bull. That’s right - I made a friend out in West Texas with a big black Angus bull. I was hanging out with him this afternoon when off in the distance I saw a lady and two kids riding their horses. Holy cow!! Humans! I ran as fast as I could to them. This was my chance! I really needed food and water. Living on cow poop isn’t exactly the best nutrition, but desperate times call for desperate measures.
I was super lucky to have run into this lady and her kids because she volunteers with American Boston Terrier Rescue & Rehab. She saw me and could see how desperate I was for some help. She picked me up and asked me how I had ended up way out there, 10 miles from the nearest town. I just shrugged my shoulders, and she lifted me up onto the saddle with her. I rode a mile down the road back to their barn. How cool is that? My freedom ride was on a horse! Not every dog can say that.
This sweet lady called the rescue and sent them my handsome pictures. They saw how urgent my situation was and agreed to take me on even though I’m not a Boston. I got lucky twice today!
She rushed me to the vet where I saw a doctor. The doctor said I was a young buck of just 2-3 months and that I needed subcutaneous fluids. I had some weird bubbles under my skin, but the sweet lady says they won’t be there long because my body will use those fluids to make me feel better.
The sweet lady is feeding me small meals every couple of hours so that the food doesn’t upset my tummy since it hasn’t seen real food in so long. Her kids would love to feed me to my heart’s content because they love me so much, but I’m ok with taking it slow.
I am really smart! I have learned to sit and am working on my crate training and recall command. I am also a great dishwasher especially after you have loaded the dishes! I have also found my coonhound howl. I sing so beautifully!
I would love to find an active family. If you are a bird hunter or live on a farm that would be an added bonus!
Love, Ranger
