i have a 7 week old boston terrier and i was just wondring around what time will his stand up
Usually by at least 4 months of age they should be fully standing. You have some time.
I need a dog thats small, smart, cute, and hyper, but doesnt need hours of exercise and isnt destructive (chewing/tearing/ barking).
would you say they are easy to potty train and with obedience?
what are all the pros and cons about them?
and any tips on the first dog?
Anyone else?
ALso, should i get a male or female?
is there any big difference (personality wise) between the two?
I did the dog breed info search and the boston terrier was the fifth breed it listed.
These are some of the breed highlights of Boston Terrier:
* Short-nosed dogs like Boston Terriers can’t cool the air going into their lungs as efficiently as longer-nosed breeds, and they’re much more susceptible to heat stress.
* Because Boston Terriers can have respiratory problems, avoid pulling on your dog’s collar to get him to go what you want.
* Prone to corneal ulcers because his eyes are so large and prominent. Be careful about his eyes when you’re playing or taking him for a walk.
* Depending in part upon their diets, Boston Terriers can be prone to flatulence. If you can’t tolerate a gassy dog, a Boston Terrier may not be for you.
* Because of their short noses, Boston Terriers often snort, drool, and snore (sometimes loudly).
* While Boston Terriers typically are quiet, gentle dogs, not prone to yappiness or aggression, males can be scrappy around other dogs that they feel are invading their territory.
* Boston Terriers can be gluttonous about their food, so monitor their condition and make sure they don’t become overweight.
* They can be stubborn, so persistence and consistency are definite pluses in training methods. They are sensitive to your tone of voice, and punishment can make them shut down, so training should be low-key and motivational. Crate-training is recommended while housetraining your Boston Terrier.
