Watson


Adopting Watson from NEHS was a great decision for our entire family. He is a sweet and goofy boy that is loved by all of us!

After losing one of our two boston terriers, Stella, our family wasn't sure if and when we would add another dog to our house. We knew that our rescued boston terrier that was still with us would potentially have some issues with the introduction of a new pack member after spending all of his 10 years with Stella.

Then, my son and I visited NEHS one evening and met Watson. He seemed like such a sweet boy and who could resist those big, droopy eyes! We returned the next evening with the entire family, including our boston terrier, Dexter. With the help of our awesome adoption counselor, we carefully introduced Watson and Dexter. After thinking it over, we knew that Watson would be a wonderful new family member for us.

Watson has been home for a week now and we are all doing great! He LOVES his daily walks and does well on his leash. He loves taking naps on his new bed, our bed, the couch...really anywhere! Potentially his favorite place for a nap is on my lap...he has NO idea he is 50 lbs!

Watson is amazing with our 1 and 6 year old children. He loves to run around the backyard with our son and has been so great as our daughter crawls over and under him! Dexter and Watson are now co-existing peacefully...Dexter still lets Watson know if he doesn't agree with what he is doing, but they get along otherwise. We are working on crate training and potty training and both are progressing well. I am looking forward to our obedience class through NEHS next month with Watson so we both can get a bit more polish on our commands!

Thanks, NEHS, for being there for Omaha's animals in need and, for us, humans in need of a new family member!
