Introduction

Known as the "American Gentleman," the Boston Terrier is easily recognizable with its tuxedo-like black and white coat, which mirrors its polite personality. Compact in size, they are friendly companions, adapt well to apartment living, and are great with children. Despite their moderate activity level, they enjoy brisk walks and indoor play. Originating in the United States, this breed combines agility with a level-headed temperament, making them ideal pets for a variety of owners.
