Best Friends in the Nonahood: Love and Cuddles

January 8, 2024 by Patricia Reber

Unadoptable Boston Terriers are receiving love and cuddles in “Boston Terrier Heaven.”

Picture a home filled with love, love and more love. Lots of fur babies, and I mean LOTS. These are the unadoptable Boston Terriers taken in by Jennifer Ellena and Jason Harnett.

After moving to Florida and losing their own precious Bostons – Joe, Delaney and Kacie – Jennifer applied to become a foster parent with Boston Terrier Rescue of Florida, which was a perfect fit since Jennifer’s background is in Veterinary Medicine. This rescue organization takes in dogs that have been lost, abandoned or surrendered. The dogs are placed in foster homes to nourish the Boston Terriers back to physical and emotional health or provide them with a dignified end-of-life experience.

Jennifer and Jason have been foster parents for the past three years. Due to her experience, Jennifer tends to be placed with hospice fosters and sweet pooches who need a roof, good food and transportation. Her first foster was a wonderful senior named Major Spike.  

Jennifer always doggie-sat for friends and family, but in her foster role she has raised dog care to an entirely new level. She even takes in pregnant pooches and has a whelping box for them. One Terrier had 7 puppies, and Jennifer just increased her love to care for the extended new arrivals.

Dog owners, dog lovers and friends of animals all thank you for what you are doing, Jennifer and Jason.  You have created a safe haven for all of these pooches that you have hugged, loved, cuddled, fed, driven to appointments, managed meds, provided food and beds, beds and more beds. You are the most incredible PAW-RENTS to all the Boston Terriers who hadn’t felt love until they entered your home!

If you are inspired by the wonderful work of Jennifer and Jason and would like to donate or become foster parents, please use this link:
