The Found Boston Terrier

Wednesday night when I was at church, I told one of the ladies I work with that I found the Boston and would have to find it a home because the owners didn't want it.  I got a call from her on my way home from work Thursday that she wanted it for her son.  I told her about the pink eyes and I said I would take it to the vet before I gave it to her to make sure it wasn't contagious.  This morning we went to the vet and he was given the okay to go with her.  The vet wasn't sure what was wrong exactly, but the eyes were not scratched.  He has an antibiotic to put in his eyes for awhile and he wants to see him next week.  I called her when I left and she said she wanted to him today.  I took him over there and they loved him.  She is going to put the ointment in his eyes and take him back for his recheck.  She is also going to get him neutered as soon as possible and get his Rabies shot once his eyes clear up.  He is now in a loving home and should be very happy.  He jumped right into her husbands lap and went to her son when he called him.  (BTW when I was at the vet someone brought in an adorable French Bulldog puppy.  I will post the picture later.  I had my camera with me because we went to the art show in the park afterwards.)
