Man Rides Rescue Pets Around in Custom-Built Dog Train
We try not to exaggerate too often here at The Hollywood Gossip, so take the following statement however you see fit:
This video may feature the greatest thing we have ever seen in our entire lives.
It stars Eugene Bostick, a Fort Worth, Texas native who retired 15 years ago, but who has since dedicated his life to helping Golden Retrievers in need.
The 80-year old tells The Dodo.com that he and his brother tragically witnessed numerous owners dumping their dogs out near their horse barn, “leaving them to starve.” So he “made a place for them to live.”
And now he"s made a unique way of ferrying them around town.
"One day I was out and I seen this guy with a tractor who attached these carts to pull rocks. I thought, "Dang, that would do for a dog train,"" said Bostick.
"I"m a pretty good welder, so I took these plastic barrels with holes cut in them, and put wheels under them and tied them together."
And there you have it. That"s how Bostick"s dog train was born and that"s how he transports his pets (nine at the moment) to and from town or to and from the local creek for a fun day out.
"Whenever they hear me hooking the tractor up to it, man, they get so excited," says Bostick. "They all come running and jump in on their own. They"re ready to go."."
This is amazing.
