I've had two. They were really smart and easy to train. One had some separation anxiety. The other would climb a 6 foot chain link fence and leave for a while. Crate training was easy. When they get excited, they sometimes have wheezing/snorting fits. They both lived to about 13 years. Their digestive tracts are so short that when they burp, it smells like poop. That's always fun with house guests who like dog kisses!
I have a very hyper, spiteful bt. She is big on personality, and ubersocial. gets along great with our great dane. They definitely have some serious walleye vision - if i throw food directly at the center of her face she has to turn her head to see, and catch it. which is very entertaining for me.
fun stuff

I had a great one. The midsized model at about 16lbs. Based on our little dog there have been three families who were around her that bought their own. She was loving, always calm and always obeyed. The only time I have ever seen my dad cry was the day my wife and I brought Scooter home from the doggy hospital to bury her. My mom was a wreck. Now you got me crying! She was dirt eater.
so true.

That's what I have copper pots for.
Do you already have another dog?
We've had a Boston for about 8 years. She was a total spaz for the first 4 until we got a pug mix. That mellowed her out fast.

That moose looks like a cub.
RAD dogs......they're the ONLY small breed I can tolerate.
I'm actually a BT nut now....My wife converted me.
Our first girl Izzy passed earlier this year.
Our new girl, Bowie, is the light of our lives.
NOTE: B.T. pillow in background. Signifies just how crazy we both are about Bostons...

Good to know....considering the addition of two to the family.
My daughters artwork and I had no say in naming.
Cousins. Black a two week old male and one week senior to the brown female.
Hoping they're as smart as stated and easy to train.

My buddy has one that LOVES to attack electric fly swatters...He will jump 4++ feet just to zap his snout on it. 
Very hyper but an all around cool dog.

The breeder had said the older male is a hog and eats a lot. On the other hand, the younger female of a different litter is smaller than her single sister.
Been fourteen years since my wife and I have trained a puppy, so this will be interesting.

I had two females from the same litter several years ago. They were slightly mixed with a bird dog or something though. They were really cool dogs. Very tough, pretty smart, somewhat territorial, kind of crazy in the house when they played. They did like to kill s*** though. Constantly eating birds, squirrels, the neighbor's chickens. Oddly enough, they didn't make a lot of the snorting noises most Boston terriers make, which was nice. I recommend the breed.
