Story
**Think this dog might be for you? The first step is to complete an application: http://www.mominpinrescue.org/p/adoption-application_30.html We do not arrange transport for our dogs. If your application is approved, you will be required to come to us to pick up your dog.** Kenji was described by the shelter as a Boston Terrier, and we agree with that, but he seems taller and lankier than a Boston with those long legs! We think he could be part Boxer or a "Boxton." He weighs about 17 pounds and is about 3 years old. When we got him, he was heartworm-positive but has been treated and has tested heartworm-negative. He is fully vaccinated, microchipped, neutered, and on heartworm preventative. He is a very sweet dog, but would not do well with cats, or smaller dogs. He has not been tested with children. Kenji is located in St. Louis, and his adoption fee is $260.

Story
Jax is a full bred lilac/white male Boston Terrier. He's a year old and fully vaccinated and neutered. Standard to the breed, Jax has lots of energy and will need an experienced dog owner who is able to establish boundaries and correct unwanted behavior. Jax is crate trained, house trained, and enjoys playing with any and all toys. He is still learning to walk on a leash without pulling and needs to wear a harness as he will pull to the point of choking himself if not corrected. Since we got Jax, one of our other dogs has become depressed and started exhibiting behavioral issues. Jax has a dominant personality and will bully or play inappropriately with dogs who are timid which happens to be the case with our other dog. Jax is still learning "doggy manners" and does well with redirection. Jax does okay with cats but again, he will posture, stomp, and get excited if a cat is timid or runs from him which will result in him curiously "chasing" the cat.
