About the Breed
This American breed was developed during the latter part of
the last century, with various strains of Bulldog, Bull Terrier
and Boxer all contributing to its ancestry. Indeed, these
dogs were originally called American Bull Terriers for a period,
until objection from Bull Terrier owners forced a change of
name. The breed was finally recognised in 1893 by the American
Kennel Club as the Boston Terrier. A seal-brindled dog named
‘Judge’, weighing about 30lb., was taken to Boston
from Liverpool about 1875 and sold to a Mr. Hopkin there;
this dog later became the founder type. Undoubtedly the smartest
and most popular dog of American creation. Some excellent
specimens are in Britain now, the smaller being preferred.
Since then, it has become widely known throughout the world.
They have probed easy dogs to train and make delightful companions.
Boston Terriers are quite at home even in urban surroundings,
and will walk happily on a leash if it is not possible to
give them a daily run. Nevertheless, they do enjoy a period
of freedom, to explore in the company of their owner.
The short coat of this breed is easy to groom and is never
shed profusely, which makes housework easier. Boston Terriers
may snuffle because of their compact noses, while their relatively
prominent eyes are prone to injury, especially if they charge
off through undergrowth. However, the most significant problem
associated with these terriers is only apparent during the
whelping period. The relatively large head, coupled with a
narrow pelvis, often causes problems when a bitch is giving
birth. A Caesarean section may be required if a puppy’s
head becomes stuck in the birth canal. Particular care is
therefore necessary when breeding Boston Terriers.
