The Boston terrier is a small breed dog that packs a big
and loveable personality! They can be the clown of the party if you let them!
Their small size yet sturdy build lends them to many different living
environments, but they will need regular exercise to harness some of their
energy. They were bred in Boston (surprising I know!) and seem to adapt well to
active or slower life styles. They require little in the way of grooming which
makes their up keep fairly simple.

There are several health concerns to be aware of prior to
brining a Boston terrier into your home. For starters, they are considered a
brachycephalic breed, which means their noses are slightly sunken in and they
can have difficulty breathing. They also possess very large eyes which can make
them more prone to ocular injuries. As with many other small breeds they are
also prone to luxating patellas. This is where the knee caps are not secure in
their location and can move in and out of joint. Overall though this breed
tends to be fairly healthy!

Boston’s are such a versatile breed that they make a
great addition to most families. Their abilities range from a calm therapy dog
to an active agility dog dominating in the show ring! They seem to adapt to
whatever life style their family has for them. As with most puppies it will
still be important to socialize and go through basic training to make sure they
continue to be a well-adjusted pet. But if you let them they will keep you and
your family laughing for hours with their crazy antics and wonderful personality.
