Trigger
March 13, 2007 — Tom & Melody
Trigger is a 23-pound, eight-year-old terrier mix. She is a charming, affectionate, and intelligent wine-tasting companion. The evening cocktail hour is her favorite time of the day.
An ongoing question is which breeds make up Trigger’s mix? Boxer? Jack Russell? Boston terrier? People always ask and everyone has a different idea.
Trigger’s a rescue and had some hard times. She’s been shot twice (and still has a pellet in her chest). But she’s living the good life now.
Trigger finds wine tasting relaxing.

Is she not the cutest little dog?

I have to say, Trigger has won my heart. With a granddaughter dog, like Trigger Ann - who needs grandchildren? Just kidding!

I am the proud gramma of Trigger Ann - You would have to know my background to appreciate the love I have for Trigger. She is the sweetest, kindest, most obedient dog in the world. I have never wanted to pet or touch a dog before Trigger. Trigger looks up into your eyes and recognizes complete adoration.
I am also the very proud grandmother to Tommy and Tony. They are the finest young gentlemen in the whole world. If everyone was like these young men - love and respect would dominate the world. Grandma loves you both!

Your dog is adorable. I have a Boston Terrier/Jack Russell mix and while Trigger’s brown color is throwing me off, there is an amazing resemblance to my dog, Molly, who’s black and white. The head shape, markings, eyes, snout length, mouth and ears are almost identical.

Hello Sally! We are very interested in hearing more about Molly! Is there any chance we could see a picture of her? Is she a sweetiepie? — Melody–

Sure, I’d be happy to send a couple pics of Molly. I’m not sure how to post them though…

Your Trigger looks a lot like the little brown & white Boston Terrier I just adopted. Hard to tell what Trigger is mixed with (resulting in the longer nose and small ears), but I do see my dog in Trigger. Cute!

Sharon, I’d love to see a picture of your little dog. Thank you for commenting on Trigger. She is cuddled under my arm as I type this!

Hi I too have a Boston/Jack Russel mix, Oscar. Trigger looks Like he has some beagle in him? We also have another dog that has boston/Jack Russel and mystery mix in her, Daisy. She has the same markings in her that your dog has.
I’m trying to find other dogs like my Oscar because he is always turning heads at the dog park. I love the Boston terrier mixes.

Hi Michelle, I would love to see pictures of Oscar and Daisy. When I got Trigger, the rescuers said she was part Boxer and part Boston Terrier. But, sometimes we wonder if she might have some Jack Russel in her. I think Boston Terriers are so cute!

This is SOOO crazy!! I was just online looking for pictures of a Boston Terrier/Boxer mix and came across your website!! I swear that I have Trigger’s sister!! YES you read that right!! My dog’s name is Dharma and she just turned 8 in May this year. I rescued her from a pound in Jacksonville, North Carolina in July of 1999. When I adopted her she was the last puppy left and I was told that there were 5 puppies in the litter. I was told that she was a Boston/Boxer mix.
PLEASE get in touch with me!! I’d love to share pictures because I swear this is Dharma’s long lost sister!!

Sorry in my excitement and FAST typing… Dharma turned 9 this year–not 8!!

Lisa — I sent you an email! I can’t wait to see pictures of Dharma!! Thank you for writing!

I just got home from out to dinner and the first thing I did was check here! I can’t wait to get your email!! My husband thought I was nuts when I told him I thought I had found Dharma’s long lost sister!!!

Lisa, for some reason my email to you is stuck in my outbox. I will keep trying to send but in case it doesn’t go out, keep checking here, okay? I really want to see pictures. Also, I had told you in the email that Trigger also is 9 years old (this description of her on this page is dated and needs to be updated)! How sweet is Dharma? Trigger is SO sweet! She also doesn’t like to get her paws wet on dewy grass or in mud puddles. Okay, Lisa, going to try and get this email unstuck so we can communicate more! In fact, why don’t you just send me an email at: mreifel@comcast.net. That will solve the email issue. can’t wait!

Lisa — I sent you an email with pictures. Please let me know when/if you receive it. (I still couldn’t send from my home email so I tried from my work email.) You weren’t exaggerating about Dharma! This is amazing!!
