Boston Terrier Characteristics
The Boston Terrier is a breed of dog originating in the United States of America. They are small, lively and playful little dog recognized by his tuxedo jacket, sporty but compact body, short tail and the friendly flow in his big round eyes.
Boston Terriers are extremely loving, charming and his impeccable manners have earned him the nickname “The American Gentleman”. Bostons are no exception: they are sturdy, people-oriented, and always up for a walk! They are lively that love to play and being active.
These dogs are also very protective to their owners, easy to train and fairly low maintenance, making them an ideal pet for single people and families alike. They are not overly demanding of attention but be aware that they don’t like to be left alone for very long!
