Boston is up to doing just about anything. She loves to be around people and always has a tail wag, smile or hug for everyone. In her free time she loves to go sledding, swimming, dabble in agility or just hang out with her other furry friends. She is not partial to any one toy, but will fetch anything you are willing to throw for hours.

Boston's therapy partner is Julie Bereckis. She is a full time pediatric ICU nurse and works part-time as a veterinary technician. She becaame involved with therapy because everyone thought Boston was such a loving dog and would enjoy it. They were right. Being involved with therapy has been fun and rewarding for both. It is great to help someone work on motor skills, read or to just put a smile on a face.
