A revolutionary new look into everything "Boston Terrier"; a MUST-READ that includes practical tips, tricks, and insights to help a new (or seasoned) Boston Terrier owner.Using interviews with 4 top Boston Terrier breeders, best-selling author Vanessa Richie has created an in-depth look at what it REALLY takes to successfully live with, raise, and train a Boston Terrier.Covering all the Boston Terrier-specific topics you NEED TO KNOW, such as:The unique characteristics and quirks of the Boston Terrier breedEarly training (including housebreaking) strategies for Boston TerriersChoosing the proper supplies and food for a Boston Terrier puppyHelpful strategies for socializing a Boston Terrier with other dogsHealth care advice for each stage of your Boston Terriers lifeGrooming tips that a Boston Terrier owner needs to know!Known as the American gentleman, the Boston Terrier always appears to be ready for sophisticated fun. But owning one can come with its own set of unique challenges for an owner who is unprepared for the quirks and personality of this loveable, but often mischievous breed.Be prepared to take on the challenges of owning a Boston Terrier by learning about:Picking the right Boston Terrier for your family and homePreparing to bring your BT homeBoston Terrier health and wellnessIntegrating your new BT with your current petsHousetrainingBoston Terrier socializationTrainingNutritionGroomingGenetic health concerns common to Boston TerriersCaring for an aging Boston TerrierGenerally considered a fantastic dog for first time dog families, the Boston Terrier has an incredibly friendly personality that makes him a great addition to any home. Socialization is fairly easy because the breed is naturally friendly. Training may be a bit more difficult, particularly housetraining, so do be prepared to put in a lot of extra patience and some extra time to get your puppy to the point where accidents become a thing of the past.They adore their people, though some are prone to choosing one favorite person, and it will be obvious as they will become like a shadow to their favorite person. This is also a breed that has a wide range of personalities, with some being bouncy and fun, while others are more dignified and mellow. What most of them have in common though is how much they enjoy spending time with the people in their lives. They are also easy to integrate into a home with other dogs, and even cats - as long as the cat doesn't totally object to your new dog.The biggest drawback to the breed is their numerous genetic health issues. Part of the issues stem from the fact that the Boston Terrier has a short nose, which increases the number of issues with their large eyes and hampers their ability to breath as easily as dogs with longer snouts. They are also prone to bother allergies and stomach sensitivities, so you will need to be careful about what you feed your dog and how much the environment affects your pup. Most of the ailments are not life-threatening - they have a life expectancy between 13 and 15 years. They are also incredibly easy to groom with their short-haired coats.If you are considering bringing a Boston Terrier into your home (or already have!) then you need to read this book as soon as possible!
