Piper’s long haul is complete, and she is now in her foster home!

In early January, we posted about Piper, a three-year-old Boston Terrier requiring a special type of foster home. A wonderful family was found, but they were in Alberta, and Piper was in Ontario. With the help of BTRC volunteers and a kind and caring truck driver, we are excited to report that Piper has made her way to Alberta and is now getting acquainted with her new digs.

Piper has a long history of urinary tract issues that treatment to date has not resolved. Adding to Piper’s health concerns, she also has separation anxiety and can be reactive when highly stressed. Piper’s family wanted her to get the specialized medical care and behavioural training she requires and felt BTRC was her best chance to live the happy and healthy life she deserves.

Since arriving at her foster home, Piper has been an active, inquisitive and snuggly guest! A polite leash walker, she enjoys exploring the new sights and sounds. She even had a staring competition with a bunny she encountered on a walk but was startled when it hopped away. 😂🐇

In between walks, Piper enjoys her beauty rest as most Bostons do – burrowed right under the covers. Piper has a nice set of pipes too! She will let her foster parents know when she is hungry or suspects something suspicious is happening outside (those darn squirrels are always causing trouble!).

As Piper settles in and we get to know her better, we will share updates. Thank you to everyone who cared about and shared Piper’s situation. Though her road trip has ended, her journey to a new future has just begun!

Piper is being fostered in Calgary, AB and is not yet ready for adoption.
