Many people, who have not met Boston Terrier puppies have no idea what their missing, bundles of curious and humorous energy, that's focused on entertaining you, and loving you.
The AKC breed of Boston Terriers is a very inquisitive and intelligent little dog, belonging to the non sporting group, they weigh between 10 and 25lbs, and usually stand between 15 inches and 17 inches. While this is the breed standard you'll also find them above and below the standard. They are often looking to entertain in a gentle way and often are referred to as "the American Gentleman"
While many toy breeds are rather fragile and petite, this sturdy little dog is known to be very good family members for families with teenagers and preteens. They love to be in the center of family gatherings and want to please at all times, this means a tone of voice is enough and any heavy hands should be avoided.
They are easily cared for with a partial coat of short length, minimal bathing and a bit of brushing will keep their coat glossy and smooth.
Boston Terrier puppies are just about like any other pup, curious, inquisitive and wanting to do the right thing, so training is a breeze if attention is paid to the small details.
The biggest thing to remember is that a Boston Terrier puppy is still a baby, and like other babies, a sudden change in diet, too much stress or activity can not only make them exhausted, but also has the potential to make them physically ill. Due to their small size it's important that frequent feedings, as well as frequent naps are offered on a regular basis, their tiny bodies cannot go all day without eating or drinking.
Crate training is suggested for not just potty training but also to give your puppy a safe and comfortable place to nap or decompress from a busy afternoon playing.
You'll need to make judgment calls with your puppy just as you would any other baby, and if they do not head for their crate on their own to nap, you may want to enforce rest, also, keep water close to the crate, and your pup won't have problems with dehydration.
If you have not already acquainted your puppy with your local veterinarian, there is no time to waste. Your Vet will recommend a vaccination schedule and you'll also want to find out what type of pet insurance you Vet accepts. It's important that you follow through on your Vet's vaccination schedule as your Boston's immunity system will not be in full swing until your pup is over 4 months of age. This means that even if your pup received one vaccination, they may not be immune and can get sick.
While Boston Terrier puppies will do very well in a home with older individuals, they may not do as well, with families with very young children. They have a very inquisitive nature and seem to find trouble just about anywhere, this means that you need to provide a very safe place for your Boston when your not home, and keep an eye on them when you are.
The Boston Terrier is a great breed of small dog, and will suit in many situations, follow your Vet's schedule, check on the available pet health insurance they take, and always make sure your Boston pup has a safe place to spend their time when you're not around, such as a puppy pen or a crate. - 20511
