Fenway and Friends……

Our son once told us Fenway was a dog with a "battleship personality in a rowboat body". Hmm….since he is our first small dog, we weren't quite sure what to expect with a Boston Terrier. Both Dave and I had boxers when we were growing up….and we had our own boxer, Daisy, for 12 years while our children were growing up.

So we were BIG dog people. But then, as "elders" who were planning to spend time traveling either in a small sailboat or a small RV we knew, if we got another dog, it needed to be a smaller breed. So, after meeting neighbors who loved their Bostons, we decided that was the perfect breed for us.

When we first brought Fenway home our daughter said, "Mom….you've reincarnated Daisy!" Fenway's markings echoed Daisy's. Maybe that's why he appealed to us in the first place. At any rate, Fenway keeps us active, makes us laugh and loves to play with his big dog friends. I guess Todd was right - in his mind he has a "battleship body" to go along with the personality.
