Boston Terriers Breeders - Breed Organizations
Most of them are involved in rescue work and care for the welfare of the breed through publications and special projects. One of the most important current projects is the CHIC (New Health Registry for Boston Terriers). It has been launched to gather information on breed health. The OFA (Orthopedic Foundation for Animals) helps to maintain the project. Breeders and owners are encouraged to supply dates concerning their dog's health. This will help to better understand the breed's genetics and take measures aimed at the breed's health improvement. The Boston Terrier Club of America also publishes health surveys that give breed fanciers a clear-cut idea of diseases most common in the dog. Breeders are informed on trends, which enables them to plan their breedings with this information in mind. It has been established that Boston Terriers suffer mostly from skin problems and temperament disorders.

The Breed has many nicknames, such as the "American Gentleman" and "Boston Bulls." Boston Terriers were originally bred to fight in dog fighting pits in the Boston, Massachusetts's area. The Boston Terrier results from a crossbreed between Bull Dogs and Bull Terriers. The American Bull Terrier Club was organized in 1889 by several owners of these "Boston Bulls." They bred and showed their dogs as Bull Dogs and Bull Terriers. The name of the club was changed to the Boston Terrier Club of America, since it could be argued that the "Boston Bulls" were neither Bull Dogs nor Bull Terriers. Boston Terriers - Boston Terriers, also called Boston Bulls, are referred to as utility dogs. They serve mainly as companions and are good with children. Easy to train and look after, Bostons are good for apartment life. A house will do the best for these warm-loving sociable dogs. 9-15 years Boston Terriers - Boston Terriers originated from a cross of the English Bulldogs and the English White Terrier. Massachusetts can be considered their motherland. It was there where the breed was further improved. Pit fighting, a popular sort of entertainment across the United States gave a start to the breed. Actually, the Boston Terrier was not the only breed used in pit fighting. As a matter of fact, many dogs originally were used for these purposes. The Boston Terrier was one of them. The Boston Terrier had a number of features that distinguished him from other dogs. The dog, that went down in history as the forefather of all modern Boston Terriers, weighed about 32 pounds and was of dark brindle with some white markings. The dog had a square head and almost flat mouth. A crossbreeding with a smaller Bull-type female resulted in a litter that later became the foundation stock of many breeding lines. The Boston Terrier of that time was often referred to as "stableman's dog" or "barber's dog". |
