10 Animals With Beautiful Blue Eyes
There are awful people out there who decide to abandon dogs and leave them to starve, and then there are people like Eugene Bostick, a man who not only rescues abandoned dogs, but carts them around in a homemade train every day.
Bostick, an 80-year-old retiree from Fort Worth, Texas, has owned a farm with his brother Corky since the '40s, and he reveals that people leave their dogs to die on his land sometimes.
"We live down on a dead-end street, where me and my brother have a horse barn. People sometimes come by and dump dogs out here, leaving them to starve. So, we started feeding them, letting them in, taking them to the vet to get them spayed and neutered. We made a place for them to live."
As if rescuing dogs wasn't good enough, Bostick thought it would be a fun idea to not only build a train, but to drive these lovable dogs around for the whole neighborhood to see.
"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,'" Bostick recalls. "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."
