Breed of the Month

- Boston Terrier-

  •    Temperament: Friendly, Bright, Amusing

  •    AKC Breed Popularity: Ranks 21 of 196

  •    Height: 15-17 inches

  •    Weight: 12-25 pounds

  •    Life Expectancy: 11-13 years

  •    Group: Non-Sporting Group

 

The Boston Terrier is a lively little companion recognized by his tight tuxedo jacket, sporty but compact body, and the friendly glow in his big, round eyes. His impeccable manners have earned him the nickname “The American Gentleman.”

 

Boston Terriers are compact, short-tailed, well-balanced little dogs weighing no more than 25 pounds. The stylish “tuxedo” coat can be white and either black, brindle, or seal (black with a red cast when viewed in sun or bright light). The head is square, the muzzle is short, and the large, round eyes can shine with kindness, curiosity, or mischief. Ever alert to their surroundings, Bostons move with a jaunty, rhythmic step.

 

Bostons are sturdy but portable, people-oriented, and always up for a brisk walk to the park or outdoor cafe. A bright dog with a natural gift for comedy, the dapper Bostonian is a steady source of smiles.
