The Laundry Basket Was Full, but Not of Laundry

AI imageboston terrierducklingslaundry basket

A brindle and white Boston Terrier leans over the rim of a wicker basket with his big dark eyes and upright bat ears. Inside, a cluster of yellow ducklings is curled up in a heap of fluffy towels, all of them snoozing in one warm pile. The basket sits in a bright room with a plant, a gray sweatshirt hung over a chair and a pair of sneakers by the door. The dog's expression is full of wonder, as though he cannot believe the laundry has come to life.

Boston Terriers are small, friendly dogs known for their tuxedo-like markings and cheerful nature. They are often affectionate and playful, and they love being near their people. Their flat faces mean they can have trouble in heat or during heavy exercise, so keep them cool and ask your vet about breathing concerns. When a dog meets ducklings, short, calm, supervised visits are best. Ducklings need a warm, safe brooder away from the dog, because they can be hurt easily. Towels are fine for a short rest, but they should be changed often because ducklings are messy, and damp bedding can make them cold.

The Boston is looking down on this fluffy pile with such care that you almost expect him to start folding them. For now he seems happy to keep watch while the ducklings dream.
