Daria and Jackson May 2008 Daria the little white Frenchie came to OBTRS deaf. Her brother Jackson was her ears. He would nudge her when someone came in the room or if I opened the door for outside potty time he made sure she knew what was happening so she would follow along. It was the so cool that he cared that much for his sister and that he knew she needed him. Needless to say we knew they had to stay together and found them the best forever home where they would be with each other for the rest of their lives. They are loved and cared for like royalty. |

Lilly June 2001 My husband and I adopted Tinker (now Lily) from you back in June 2001. I just wanted to thank you again for helping to bring her into our lives. I can't begin to tell you how much joy she brings us. I have enclosed a picture of her and Daisy (my older Boston) that I took today. I wanted you to know that she is still happy and healthy and that we are very grateful for all the time and effort you put in to keeping these angels safe and finding them good forever homes. Lily is pictured on the right. |

GIGI June 07 Gigi, our French Bulldog, is our third dog and second rescue dog. She lives in KS with Bella and Brando, her boxer siblings. Gigi has fit right into the family and has quickly figured out that she has a pretty good deal here. Gigi is deaf, so she follows the lead of the 'big' dogs and she is learning more sign language all the time. The house is adjusting to a new dog and she to it... |

Bruno Dec 07 Adopting a dog is the best feeling in the world. If we ever get another dog we will adopt again. The rescue group and Bruno's foster family were great. They were so sweet, caring and good people to work with. I found Bruno the Frenchie on line at www.petfinder.com. This little guy has been a blessing to us. He was an early Christmas present for my husband Phil. It was not a surprise because we wanted to make sure Phil was onboard 100% before bringing in a new member of our family. Phil was still surprised that we cared enough to fulfill his dream dating back to his childhood to have a Frenchie. Phil loves Bruno so much...we all do. Thanks again to you all for making this happen and for taking such good care of the fosters until they find forever homes. |

Otis Nov 07 When we started looking for a Frenchie puppy to add to our family we never imagined we would end up flying to OK from MN to rescue such a wonderful character! Once we saw the gorgeous litter on Petfinder.com we knew we were in trouble. When we received approval we made plans to fly to OK to meet our brindle boy, which we eventually named Otis. Otis has been a perfect addition to our family. He is a bundle of joy and energy which keeps us laughing all the time. He loves our 2 cats and male lab. He even seems to like the MN snow...briefly of course! We are so thankful to OBTRS for giving us the opportunity to give this little guy his forever home! |

BOBO Nov 07 |
||||
| We were so fortunate to have found Bobo (pictured left)and have him join our family!! We began our seach for a new family member and brother or sister for our young Boston Terrier "Daisy". We looked at several different websites and we settled on Petfinder.com to find a rescued/foster dog. We were so lucky to have run across a local Foster family that had Boston Terriers and French Bulldogs. Our search was originally for another Boston but as soon as we met lil Bobo, it was a done deal for both of us, he stole our hearts. Diana had everything prepared and was very informative about Bobo's needs including a very informative printout from Bobo's vet to inform us of anything we might need to know health wise for him to stay current and healthy. Diana also provided a great training DVD. That really wasn't needed for Bobo because he is so well behaved, but it helped us a lot with issues with training our baby Daisy. The DVD also provided us with coupons and savings at local stores. I would highly recommend Diana and Oklahoma Boston Terrier and French Bulldog Rescue. It has been a great experience for our family and we already have plans with them for upcoming visits and fun! |

Oscar Nov 07 |

I just wanted to send
you an update on Jean-Luc. We have named him Oscar, and he is doing
great! He has stopped chasing the kitties relentlessly, and JT has
decided to be his friend. Oscar is such a cuddle-bug, and Russell
has already gotten him in a bad habit..after his early morning 2am)
potty break, Oscar sleeps in the bed with us until we wake up. He is
spoiled rotten already, and everyone just loves him. |

George Oct 07 |
||||
| It's very hard for me to put into words how much having George in our family means to us. When I first saw the picture of George on petfinder.com and read his listing, we kept saying that there was no way this could be true, he was simply too perfect and exactly what we were looking for. We received the call that we had been approved for adoption. We were excited to see George and brought along our Boston Terrier, Eleanor Mae to meet him. The bond between the two was almost instant.
They are the best of friends. George has become not only part of our family, but part of our hearts as well. He adapted easily to our family and after nearly a month he acts as if he has always been with us. He loves going to work, he cuddles and plays with his sister, he is our comedian, our protector, and we couldn't imagine life without him. Thanks for everything you do and for all the hard work that goes into finding these fosters great forever homes! We were impressed with all the detail and background checks that go into finding the best homes for your foster fur kids. |

Suzie September 07 |
||||
I spent a lot of time on the internet looking for a Frenchie to adopt. I REALLY wanted a Frenchie because they have the best personalities, they are always happy to see you and ready to play and be rowdy or cuddle up and be loved on. Then I came across my Little Suzie and some of her foster brothers and sisters at the Oklahoma Frenchie and Boston Rescue on "Petfinder.com". I filled out my application and spoke with Diana. As soon as I was approved I was able to choose from the Frenchies she had available. I fell in love the minute I met Suzie. She has the cutest face and makes the funniest little piglet snorks, but the rest of her was a mess! "Bless her Heart " is all I kept thinking. She had to have a partial mastectomy because the breeder she came from had let the mastitis get so bad her flesh was literally rotting and there were all the bald spots from the untreated mange. By the time I took her home she was well on her way to recovery. We could not love her more and she is a very welcome addition to our family! |

Tucker June 07 |
||||
My new mom adopted me on 6/25/07. It was a long ride to my new home in Illinois (it took til tomorrow to get there!) but it's ok cause my new forever home is great! It has a really cool fenced back yard where I can run and play with all my new fur cousins. One of my humans hung a bungee rope from a tree for me to play with. Wow, is it ever fun! I have a new yorkie brother, Gus. He likes to play with me and keeps me company when my humans are gone.
I started beginning obedience school, and well, I was the star of the evening I think, cuz I got lots of attention -- I "frenchified" everyone! |

Hooper Aug 07 |
||||
Hooper (on the right) is doing fine. You wouldn't even know he's only been here for a month! He's just so sweet and such a cuddle bug! Jack and he are great friends and other than the usual little tiffs which we nip in the bud right away, they get along fabulously and play together like two demons possessed! It's so funny to watch them run around with a toy together and sharing their meals! |

Sophia Sept 07 |
||||
Sophia is doing
well. Just last night and this
morning she started going to the
door to let us know she has to
go out. We've been crate
training her so that makes it
much easier. Our dog Lola
(pictured left) is still getting
used to a puppy being around. |

Bijou Sept 07 |
||||
As a newly
married couple, the last thing
we thought we would need to add
to our lives was a new dog. We
already had a very needy,
hyperactive pug, Boss, to
handle. We realized he needed a
buddy. We had always wanted a
French Bulldog. Fortunately, we
found this adoption site and
found Bijou. When we first met
Bijou, she bullied Boss, pushed
him around and chased him around
the room...but low and behold,
he liked it. Now we can't
imagine how our lives would be
without her. She has been a
wonderful pet and a good fit
with Boss. They keep each other
company when we are at work and
they keep each other balanced.
Between crazy fits of sprints
around the house, they also keep
each other exercised. We
couldn't have had a better
experience than with Bijou. We
AND Boss thank you very much! |

Jack Sept 07 |
||||
Jack
is doing well. He has adjusted
with his bigger sister Miss
Beasley (Old English Bulldog).
He is already potty trained; we
have a doggie door which has
helped. He loves to be praised.
He is just the joy of our lives.
I just can't say thank-you
enough to you and all the people
who open up their homes to these
animals. Maybe if things work
out in the future we can become
foster parents too. |

Rosie Sept 07 |
||||
Rosie came into our lives when
we needed her the most. She is
sweet, has very good house
manners, loves to play with her
sister Mia and Kylie the Siamese
kitten. She made herself right
at home and it seems like she
has been with us forever. We can
not imagine our life without
her. She loves to dunk her
sister Mia in the little pool
and loves to play with her toys
but will cuddle up with you when
it's time to rest or sleep. |

Veeveeka Aug 07 |
||||
Veeveeka is doing very well.
The girls love her and she is so
kind to them. She is never far
away when the kids are playing
outside or in, but she
definitely prefers to be
inside. Iris walks her in the
mornings and evenings and she is
doing very well on the leash. We
love her very much already and
she is such a joy. |

Elly Aug
07 |
||||
I
just wanted to check in with you
and let you know that Elly
(Abby) is doing great. It took
her about a month to fully
adjust and come out of her
shell, but she seems to be very
happy and comfortable here now.
She has made us very happy and
continues to make us laugh.
Everyone who meets her always
goes on and on about how cuddly
and sweet she is. She has slept
in my bed with me every night
since I've had her. I don’t
think I could bare to make her
sleep all alone! |

SnuggleBunny Aug 07 |
||||
Snuggle Bunny was adopted by a
wonderful family in Illinois who
drove to OK to pick him up. They

boy! He now has a Yorkie brother

family including the little
ones. |

Big Jim June 07 |
||||
Just wanted to let you know that
Big Jim is doing great, he seems
to love it here. Already he is
sleeping in bed with us and has
become a great member of the
family, the other two dogs love
him and their days are filled
with play. As you said, "this is
his forever home." I can't tell you how much I appreciate all that you have done towards the rescuing of these dogs, you are the main reason I chose "Big Jim", I could tell that his new home was very important to you. Ohhhhh, Jim is eating great and my other two dogs are getting tons of exercise, it's a win, win for all of us. |
