The Arrival of Sebastian

What!! Another Boston???

After nearly a year’s hiatus for knee-replacement surgery, Evelyn returned to volunteering at the Coachella Valley animal shelter. No sooner had she arrived than one of her “spies” told us about a young Boston terrier stray that had just been picked up. The two of us immediately went to look at him. He was very skinny, and also very friendly. What the heck? What’s yet another Boston?

So we have adopted Sebastian. The vet gave him a clean bill of health. We are feeding twice a day until he puts on some weight. Then we will back off to once a day, in sync with the other dogs.

Sebastian and Lil Maya play almost continuously, except when they are napping. All four of the dogs are still jockeying for ranking. At any given time any one of them seems to be top dog. Very interesting!

With the arrival of Sebastian we decided that four dogs were too many to share our bed. So now the dogs sleep in their crates and we have our bed to ourselves. Now Evelyn can put on the new sheets that she was reluctant to use with dogs sharing the bed.
