Introduction to the Boston Terrier
I can’t remember a time in my life when I did not own a dog! I’ve owned Beagles, Maltese, and American Bulldogs. However, it was not until I was a young adult that I was introduced to the dog that would become my favorite breed – the Boston Terrier.
Boston Terriers (also known as “Bostons” or “Bosties”) have a personality all their own. Many dogs are loyal, energetic, and affectionate. Those adjectives describe the Boston, but there is so much more that makes the breed special. Perhaps it is the way that Bosties bond with their families. Maybe it is the positive energy that a Boston exhibits. It could be the ability of the Boston to go from hyperactive play to sitting patiently on his owner’s lap. Regardless, the Boston Terrier is an extraordinary dog.
Throughout this book, we will explore the variations of the Boston Terrier – breed standards and colors, Boston Terrier mixes, and the different sizes of Boston Terriers. We will also discuss health issues, training, and finding the right Boston for your family.
I have personally owned five Boston Terriers over the years. I have had newborn Bostons, and I have taken in Bostons who might otherwise have been left to sit indefinitely in a pen outdoors. I have worked personally with each of our dogs. However, much of my knowledge about Bostons is based on research as well! Many things I will share with you via this book are research-based ideas that I have personally tried with my pups.
I sincerely hope that this book provides not only enjoyment in reading but is also helpful. If you are considering purchasing a Boston or adopting, (many awesome dogs are available at Boston Terrier rescues), you are about to embark on a wonderful journey. If you have already brought home your little bundle of Boston Terrier joy, then I hope that this book will assist you with any issue you may encounter as a new pet parent.
I sincerely thank you for purchasing this book! Best of luck as you bring your new Bostie home, and here’s wishing you many, many years of companionship with one of the best dog breeds available.
CHAPTER 1
What Were Boston Terriers Originally Bred For?
Figure 1: Adult Boston Terrier
The Boston Terrier is a fairly new dog breed. Two separate stories exist regarding the origin of the Boston Terrier. While most experts agree that all modern Boston Terriers are descended from a dog named Judge, some historians differ on how Judge’s owner, Robert C. Hooper, procured the dog.
We do know that Hooper obtained Judge around 1870. However, stories differ after this date. Some historians state that [...]
