About Buddy & Obi

They are waiting with paws crossed! Apply now! Meet Buddy & Obi, two incredibly resilient and loving Boston Terrier brothers searching for their forever home. These four-year-old littermates faced a tough beginning last June when their owners could no longer care for them, but their spirits remained unbroken. Despite being vision-impaired, both boys have shown remarkable adaptability, moving through life with courage and a sense of adventure. Obi, with his black and white markings, came into rescue in weakened condition and was quickly diagnosed with IBD and PLE. Thanks to attentive foster care and a special diet, he has regained his health and now beams with vitality. Buddy, the brown and white brother, is a punctual mealtime enthusiast known for his cautious but charming personality. Both dogs thrive on their prescription diet, are fully potty trained, use the doggy door independently, and respond well to food motivation—Obi, especially, is a speedy eater! These brothers are playful, sweet, and truly adore people—especially kids. They may be startled by loud noises due to their vision loss, and benefit from a home without stairs, but walks and outdoor play remain their favorite activities. Each boy brings his own unique personality: Obi as the goofy, carefree explorer and Buddy as the wise-beyond-his-years cuddler. They do get excited and a bit jumpy when meeting new people, simply trying to "feel out" their environment, and Buddy occasionally has anxiety-related accidents. Above all, Buddy and Obi are deeply bonded, finding comfort and confidence in each other, and they must be adopted together. A calm, loving home that can appreciate their quirks and special bond will be the perfect fit for them. Their adoption fee is fully sponsored, making now the perfect time to offer them the love and security they deserve. Make their next chapter their best one yet.
