When looking to get a certain size. The size of the puppies depend on the size of the grandparents not the parents. A little FYI. I'm a breeder in Montana. I love both females and males the same. They all have their own personalities :)

[@BostonTerrierSociety]

Interesting I didn’t know that thanks for the insight.

[@williamcotter5960]

Carisa, We had a Boston for 12+ years, but she passed a couple of years ago. We are finally thinking of getting another Boston and recently purchased some land in Bozeman for our long term residence. How do they do in the cold of Montana? Can you send me your contact details? Thank you

[@adrianalawlor6409]

I looooove ur comment

[@lanii_belleza]

Can you please send me your contact info interested in adopting.

[@johncox2865]

Amen to that. Every dog has its own unique traits and tricks.

[@SammyandPickle]

We lost our female Boston terrier and she was the love of our life. She was the best dog we have ever had. We recently adopted a 5 year old male Boston terrier and the one major thing I can say is the "a female Boston will love you but a Male Boston will be in love with you" is a perfect way describe it. It is so so true.

[@indynugs]

I was looking at getting a female Boston but was surprised on Christmas with an 8 week old little boy. He’s been the sweetest, most loving, playful, smart, curious, brave sweet pea bundle of joy. He’s been my shadow these past 9 months and I couldn’t be happier with him! Highly recommend to anyone looking for a companion. I can’t wait to spend the next 10 plus years with him!

[@caseythesparky3503]

Growing up my family bred Boston terriers. I personally prefer males. I find females lick a lot more, and are more independant. Males are literally in love with you and are much more devoted. They have their humans and they don't let go lol. My male boston Louie doesn't need a leash anywhere, because he literally walks by my side everywhere.

[@graywebb2554]

Same here! Mines afraid he's going to miss out on something 😂

[@simasfm7997]

Trained somehow?

[@MaryLeguera]

"Female BT loves you, but male BT is in love with you." How sweet can that be, will be getting our male puppy in 3mos 🙂

[@BostonTerrierSociety]

Exciting! I might have asked you this before but what are you going to name your baby Boston?

[@MaryLeguera]

@@BostonTerrierSociety Oops late reply, but we already got one. His name is Rockie and now 9 weeks old. He's a silver lining in the pandemic. :) Thanks for your very informative videos, hubby and I also your group. Have a nice day! :)

[@amyfritz7467]

I love and miss my Marley....we were in love with each orher...for sure

[@1fallstaff]

Got a male had him muttered best thing ever he has become a bed hog.

[@stephaniepersin4222]

I disagree, I had a male then he died at 15 and got a girl and she is so damn Sweet.

[@reescartin6778]

First, I want to say thank you. I have been battling over getting a Boston or a Frenchie for a couple years now and your channel has helped tremendously. I am picking up my first Boston, Sheldon, on 11/7. Every video I watched has just affirmed that I made the choice. You, your family and Bella are amazing. Thank you for everything you do.

[@MM-xl2dk]

I had 2 males, and now 1. They were best friends. My boy that passed at almost 12 was so affectionate, super in love, cuddled, confident, athletic, smart and easily trained. The boy I still have is less cuddly but will be right by me. He is unique, more sensitive, plays soccer, talks a lot, and sucks on his toys.

[@melanierose1064]

It's true. Males are definitely "in love" with you. I had my little man Crash well before I got married or had kids, we was definitely a little jealous of my husband when we first started dating and always had a way about him like I betrayed him / broke his heart. Of course that passed over time. When I was pregnant he was very protective over me, he loved the kids but you can still tell his #1 connection was with me. It was so hard when he passed, almost 5 years now and I still get very emotional. The connection you have with a BT is like no other, I truly don't know if I'll ever get another one because the love and bond we had for each other was just so great.

[@BostonTerrierSociety]

I'm so sorry for your loss. 💞

[@cynthiabrown372]

I have a male and a female Boston terrier. I have had Boston terriers for over 30 years. I only bred one litter and the ones I have now are mother and son ages 7 and 9. Every single thing you said was exactly right. You were right about the male/female personalities, size, whether to neuter or not. Absolutely correct about every point. Believe it or not I am about to decide on a new puppy because mine are getting older and I never want to be without one. I haven’t decided yet because my male is so needy, I may get a female. I worry about competition issues for him. Great job on research and video for sure!

[@staciegray7444]

I have never had a Male Boston. But I've taken care if a friends male Boston.. He was such a love bug. Love in his eyes. So sweet

[@maryann533]

It's been quite the opposite for me! I have a male and a female boston terrier and the male is very casual and aloof towards us, only gets close to you when he wants a pet,, while the female actively sits our laps and is affectionate and alert, she even has even figured out how to open doors!

[@hollyjensen7132]

I’ve had 2 male Boston terriers and they were very affectionate and always were right there with us. Always had to know exactly where we were in the house. They also slept with us.

[@HandbagDiva]

I’ve had 8 dogs in my adult life, 3 Boston’s. Roxxie is my first female dog. The breeder told me that males love everyone but females tend to bond with one family member more than others ( although they’re loving to all members ) That has turned out true in my case, she definitely loves the mamma! My other 2 Boston’s I adopted when they were 6 & 10 years old. They were both amazing dogs & I miss my two boys so much. They lived to 14.5 & 15.5 years, so I was blessed to have had them quite awhile after rescuing.

[@troyanndalton4871]

DEFINITELY!....LIFE "IS" BETTER HAVING A BOSTON... OR MORE. 😉 I have owned at least. "9" Boston's throughout my life. Each one has their own personality. True. Male Bostons are more "needier and affectionate" than females. Now, a few of them are sadly gone BUT I still have 3 females and 2 males left... (Molly-age 11/ Sallie&Lillie-age 8-1/2 / Gus-age 12/ and Bugsy-age 5-1/2) The girls are affectionate but most times would rather have their own space. The boys are ALWAYS next to your side. They will follow me wherever I roam in my house. When I'm showering... They BOTH will wait at the door until I'm done!! Now since Gus is older..he will prefer to have his own space.. Time by himself elsewhere. Bugsy!! He is an all-around lap dog!! He LOVES to be at your side... And he will wait for me. So. The Boston is a great companion... Great friend because they love for you to talk to them Boston's also love it when you praise them and take them everywhere you go!! They are extreme human companions.

[@BostonTerrierSociety]

Troyann thanks so much for sharing! Sorry for the loss of your Boston’s! It sounds like you still have a House Full!

[@miniminimaynimuuuu]

I had a Boston female and I have to say that this breed personality goes beyond any dog I have ever treat before. She was a rescue, she used to get out her crate like nothing, she like home made dog food and fresh, so we had to Cook her meal every feeding time. She was very lovely, stubborn, and I wasn't able to change her name because she won't listen if I called her something else. She was 6 month old when I rescue her. So I will like to have a male Boston next time I want to adopt a puppy.

[@jessicamoore551]

Getting a male Boston terrier puppy in about a month and I’m so stoked! Been watching at least 5 hours worth of training and puppy videos a day for the past few weeks!

[@dennisscott6878]

I have a Male Boston Terrier, 8 months old. He's very affectionate/protective of me. Love your videos. Thank you

[@glittermama]

I've had two males--snuggle buggles and the sweetest dogs you can imagine. My daughter lived with us with her Boston female, and I guess I'm her grandmother; she's still attached to me and I do love her (in a fashion). I know you can't judge something by one example, but my daughter's female is the Queen of the Night. She bites (but not me!--she only tried it once), she's moody and bossy. When she's done watching TV, it's time for bed. She tosses the ball and she expects her humans to fetch it. And more. So based on all this, I would recommend a male. The two males I've had are regular guys, game for anything, playful, funny, and loving. My current little boy is certainly in love with me. He stares at me sometimes with pure lovelight shining from his eyes. My feelings for him are the same. Male, male, male. Love, love love.

[@lisahall9226]

I have had both. My experience is e factly as stated. My female loved me but my male is totally IN LOVE with me!

[@matttenney7496]

We got a male Boston Terrier 2 years ago. He's so affectionate, goofy and funny. So much personality. I'd get another one if my wife would let me. We also have 2 pitbulls and they all get along great.

[@lutherbrown2417]

I have a male now and had a female in the past. They are definitely different lol. The female was more independent. The male is 100% more needy. They both love to snuggle and were great with people and other dogs. It really depends on what you are looking for because either way, you end up loving them no matter what.

[@beatrizarguedas7193]

We LOVE our BT girl! She behaves the way you explained a male would act. She’s always by our side. So very affectionate. Doesn’t spare any kisses. She likes her space too, but always close by. She mostly leaves our side just to cool her body down when she gets hot, but then right back next to us. She’s a bit spoiled because she’s never alone. If we leave the house, she tags along. We have school and work schedules that allow her to always be with one of us, if not all of us. Not sure how she’d behave if ever left alone. Our last dog was a male chihuahua, so this time we opted for a female. I’m sure either one would have been great. We are fortunate to keep in touch with the folks who got her cubby-mate and he’s pretty amazing too! ♥️

[@SarahKing-qu6di]

We have both male and a female Bostons. Our male is about 25/26 lbs. He is a very needy, but lovable dog. Our female is a little on the heavier side, as she had puppies about 2 months ago. She usually weighs at about 16 lbs. She is a very lovable girl but not as needy. She'll lay next to you on the sofa, but not on you like our male does. They're both very lovable and stubborn pups. I will say that with house training our female was easier.

[@BostonTerrierSociety]

Thats good to know. Thanks for sharing.

[@edbabcock4756]

Our Boston Summer is a resque. We were cat peole for years and desided to try to find a Boston who needed a home . She was about 1 1/2 years old when we found her in Bend Orgregon. Summer is the best things that has happend to my wife and I. Easy to train and bid stubbern at times only because she was not getting enough exercise. It was this you tub channel that opened up our eyes to owing a Boston. After two years of ownership she just gets better and better. One thing, be consistent with your training. They are a very smart breed, but get confused if one of you train differently then aht other. they love to show their love to you. do not barking!! EB

[@Jasmine-kd3zx]

Hi I'm thinking of getting a Boston Terrier it's everything I ever wanted I suffer from anxiety and depression and I hope this dog helps me

[@BostonTerrierSociety]

I think any dog would be helpful for someone with depression. A Boston would be perfect for you.

[@HeavenlyMama1]

I also suffer from depression and anxiety and my Boston helps so much with this. I don’t sleep as much because I know I have to care for him. He is so loving to me and he makes me laugh because he is so funny! I really hope you are able to get one. Hugs💕

[@Darkest_Soul_187]

Dog is a nice addition but if you really wanna get over your issues with depression and anxiety I highly recommend you get yourself the ''Attacking Anxiety & Depression Program, A Drug-Free, Self-Help Guide To Curing Anxiety, Depression And Stress'' by Lucinda Bassett. It's pure gold and it helped me tremendously with both anxiety and depression. You will not regret buying that, trust me. It changed my life.

[@michellelambeth595]

It will help alot. My husband has PTSD and ours has helped.

[@patriciateskey6224]

@@michellelambeth595 My 10 year-old daughter suffered from childhood depression, 35 years ago. My husband brought home a 1 year old BT from a breeder who gave her to us because she was not able to be bred and was not properly socialized. I was not impressed as we had 5 chidren and a busy household. One day in and I asked me husband to return the dog. I found the dog (Velvet) and my daughter together in her room, in bed, the dog tucked in beside the little girl. That was the end of the depression and the beginning of a love affair that has lasted through 3 more Boston Terriers for my daughter.

[@ericdrews5050]

I actually find males to be more affectionate. However as I am actively looking for a BT, gender would not be a deal breaker.

[@padilfab]

I just got a male soon to be 2 months old BT. It's being 2 weeks so far and this puppy is an absolute Blessing to my home. It's funny, smart, playful and overall incredible. Best choice ever. I got male in agreement with my wife and daughters basically because there are too many ladies in the house already (wife, 14 yrs old daughter and 12 yrs old ladies twins) that says it all.

[@BostonTerrierSociety]

I'm glad he is a blessing! lol too many ladies...thats how it was in my home until my son was born 10 months ago.

[@mbp6497]

I have a 12 yr male BT and u're right about males being in love with u! The older they get, the more they depend on u, and want to be with u 24/7... He even goes thru separation anxiety. Mine is terrified of thunders, fireworks, or loud noises. Even as a puppy. He gets so anxious with this that he'll even vomit.

[@paulacascarano7304]

My first Boston was female and she adored my husband. She passed of Canine Cognitive Disorder at the age of 15. The second time around I went with a male and he is such a “momma’s boy”. He’s loyal and loves mommy. Both Boston’s have very similar personalities. They are truly an amazing breed. Thank you for the awesome videos.

True about the male boston, he is literally in love with my wife

[@robindobbs672]

We have had 11 BTs in our family since the 1960s. Have had up to three at one time -- that was a handful! Having two together is ideal for many reasons -- just not two males. We have had males & females.💙 💝 I agree that female BTs love you, but male BTs are in love with you!! Females seem to be more independent & males are very affectionate! 💙 Great, great dogs!

[@Cv56789]

We have a male Boston and he is a bit needy, but not overly (just right)! and we believe it's because when we first brought him home we did not allow him to sleep in our bed and kept him in his crate while he was a puppy (open crate with an enclosure around the outside). I have noticed he requires far less attention and interaction when he is well exercised, like most dogs I imagine. The one thing that we found was inaccurate about Bostons through our research was the medium exercise requirements. We feel as if he requires a bit more than that and is not a couch potato!

[@BostonTerrierSociety]

😮

[@LV-bk4it]

I had a wonderful, gentle mix breed terrier male before, and he took himself outside for his business but we needed to keep the slider open with a stick. We decided on a female BT because we saw that she was potty-trained at six-weeks. This way she can go to the restroom at anytime and we don't need to have the door open. She's super-affectionate, funny, and smart.

[@michaelhammond7115]

Everyday is one day closer when we don't have them.....give them a good life they are loyal and loving everyday

[@lrobinsonification]

I have a female and she adores me, always wants to be near me and please me. She is an absolute doll, always polite and such a snuggle bug. :) At times when I need space she will go away to another room at times and be independent if you want her to, she's amazing. She's so smart and loving, everyone falls in love with her.

My husband and I got opt first Boston Terrier back in 2009. To make a long story short he got really injured by a couple dogs. My vet called him the dead dog walking. We loved our Baloo. Named for one blue eye of course. My husband was diagnosed with cancer in 2010. That dog never again left my husbands side. Baloo understood he had been nursed back to health and now it was his turn to nurse daddy back to health. I more year and my husband will be cancer free 10 years. We list him to old age but he was the best!! We do have 4 other dogs but back in October in the grocery parking lot we got our second special boy Bandit. Gotta get him to stop chewing and jumping but love him so much!!

I have a male BT that I didn't seek out or purchase. He was being re-homed because his original owner had sadly passed away. His daughter promised to find the dog a good home, and we ended up being the lucky recipients of this wonderful pup! He is very affectionate and cuddly and BEYOND loyal. My husband has definitely become "his person" but he's still very affectionate to everyone. He is very smart and just wants to please us. He has a lot of energy for a 7 year old dog, but he also loves his quiet/cuddle time haha. He's also giant for a BT at 40lbs, and aptly named Sherman (like the tank).

[@snoopylover28]

I have a 9 yo male Boston terrier and he can be very needy. He wants belly rubs 24/7. I thought by this age he would have been less energetic but he’s quite the same. I neutered him pretty late about 5 yo. I did want to breed him at some point but my mom kept pushing it because the vet said it would stop the “marking” (constant peeing in the house) I thought that was total bs and they only said that so people could stop dogs from breeding. Boy was I surprised when it actually stopped. He put on some weight after that thou. He was incredibly lean! I was always worried that he was not eating enough but the vet said that’s just his built and he was very active. He’s not overweight now but just looks a bit hefty now. 😅 He’s the best! The sweetest most affectionate dog I know! ❤️

[@kceeman]

I have a female BT. She is needed at times but also very independent. She picks her needy times based on the situation and how badly she wants it. But then stops when you say “NO”.

I have a 25 lb, 10 yo spayed female that I got as a puppy. I needed several very specific things in a dog (pointless to go into them here), and she was all the things I was looking for. She is a bit larger than her parents, who were both around 20 lb. I prefer F dogs in general, like their independence. She's cuddly enough for my personality, very funny and sweet, super well-behaved. Not barky, and very friendly with strangers. At 10 she is still very active and slim, though we are only a few years out of "puppy brain." She is only now not a completely impulsive goofball. =) I love the fact that when I go to bed she comes from wherever she is to sleep along my leg. Listening can be selective on walks (her hearing itself is exceptional), and she is stubborn when she wants to go one way and I want to go another, but when I sit her down and give her the talk about listening vs going home, she behaves. The most money I have had to spend on her was when she was doing zoomies in a field and stepped in a mole hill and torqued her knee. Otherwise super healthy in general. With other dogs, she is curious and friendly, but will bolt away if the other dog is aggressive and or barky. She's not into that. I don't know if that is a Mina trait, Boston trait or Female trait. Same with the roodling!! Do all Bostons 'talk?' She tells me stuff in this conversational rumbly, yodely roo. She has a long story about the Brown Truck... Every. Time. it goes by. =) For me, a female was the best fit. She is my bestie!

I have a female that I got when she's around 4. She is extremely affectionate and won't leave my side and constantly wants my attention and to pet her 24/7. I have two other dogs different breeds (Lhasa Apso and a Shi-poo) and not even close to attention needs. I don't think I've ever owned a dog this needy. So I think the consensus is that Boston's male and female are the same in the needs department.

[@BostonTerrierSociety]

Thanks for sharing. It sounds like she love you 😍

[@SharkWitchMeruna]

Wow, you really DO cover everything! Thank you for making this channel! I’ve had many females and one male and this is pretty accurate! Haha. We did neuter our male but sadly he never stopped humping our females and it was so embarassing when kids were close by...😅

[@BostonTerrierSociety]

Thanks!

[@bethandrews8872]

My male red Boston is definitely a momma's boy... fortunately, he has plenty of affection and playtime for whole family but definitely more snuggly w me. Then again, I baby him and will forever.

[@lindasokoll6730]

Our female Boston is “in love” with my husband. She loves me, but is “in love” with him. We had her half brother, who was “in love” with me, and he loved my husband. He was definitely more needy than his sister. Looong story, but unfortunately, he had an enlarged heart and passed at 7 years old. Broke our hearts. He is missed! His sister will be 10 in April and is even yet still very full of energy. She loves to play❣️The Boston Terrier is our most favorite dog breed❤️They are so much fun, funny and very loving.

I have a male, Douglas, who is one of 3 dogs. The other two are not BT’s. And he is by far the neediest and most affectionate. If I am petting another dog and Douglas sees it he will race over and push the other dog out of the way to get ALL the love. Needy baby, greedy baby... LOL!

Rescued my baby girl 2 years ago. She's only 20# and on the smaller side. She's the perfect size to travel and she does well traveling. I don't really care for male dogs and rescued my girl because she was female and a tiny little baby.

[@nahnisjourney1406]

Hello. I think I have the “runt” of the litter. Luda only weighs 13 pounds. He is so adorable and lovable. He has been neutered, but he still humps his stuffed ABC stuffed puppy that’s really a child’s learning toy. Yes… he’s in love with me, and absolutely loves to play fetch. He knows when he needs a break. Thank you for sharing this information!

[@hack0085]

My wife got me a female boston puppy as a surprise and weve had her for a week and she seems to gravitate toward me or my son more. She loves being cuddled and laying all over us right now!

[@ADucksOpinion]

man i know i wont even be able to afford one for a long time let alone find one but i been watching all your videos like im getting one tomorrow. i wish

[@ceetheninja1]

We're getting our 11 week old male Boston on Saturday. He will meet our 16 week old German Shorthair Pointer. Wish us luck!

[@stephaniepersin4222]

I had a male, Randy Boston, and now I have a girl Harmony Boston and I loved/love both.

[@furiousmojo1]

I love them. They are the best dogs you can buy in my opinion for their size

[@melissas4874]

My husband and I lost our great dane last month after 10 years. The house feels empty, but we are both older and my husband is disabled. He doesn't want a dog that needs a lot of walks etc and we weren't thinking of this breed until a local rescue posted some 2 or 3 month old boston/dachsund mixes they rescued. They aren't available for adoption for another month or 2, but they are very cute.

[@drpops66]

Everything I love everything about my female Boston.... And I especially love that she does not lift her leg on things😂.... But I have fallen in love with some little boy Boston's as well so yeah I don't think you can go wrong either way as long as it's a Boston you should be golden.... You will have an amazing companion that will love you more than you can imagine ❤😂

[@chriskudym5938]

We have a male Boston and he has brought so much joy to our family! There are six of us and he is in love with all of us but his special girl is my granddaughter who picked him out at the shelter (I'm sure he knows). He is absolutely the perfect dog!

[@loua8457]

I have a girl and she's so loving. Very affectionate and friendly. Follows me everywhere. She's the best!

[@bradrichardson8020]

My wife and I have decided on a Female Boston Terrier. We will be travelling with our dog, and love the size of the female. I watched a few of your Videos, and found a breeder in N.C. Thanks for the info so we could base our opinions on what we want.

[@kevinsoler5299]

I’ve decided to get a Boston. My ex has one and he’s the best. He was my pal he always wanted to play tough guy with me and so very affectionate

[@anonomous1546]

Brad is my second one and i wouldn't want any other breed. Thanks for this video.

[@oksigreat]

We are getting a female because my daughter wants a female. Now after watching your video it reconfirms we made a right choice. Thank you for this video and for you channel. Very informative. We are the first time dog owners, so your videos help tremendously!

[@BostonTerrierSociety]

I'm glad you are happy with your decision. And thank you so much!

[@Atwildertimes]

I have a male and female. I didn't have my female spayed at 6 months bc my vet advised me to wait to neuter my male until he was a year old bc of bone and other development issues. So when making the decision about my female I decided her development depends on her hormones as well so I will wait until she is 16 months old. Any woman who has gone through menopause can tell you how important hormones are to your well-being. My male is sweet and very loving. He weighs 25 pounds. My female is a little shy but has become much more loving after estrus. She weighs 22 pounds. Bostons have wonderful distinctive personalities and make marvelous companions. I am currently fostering a male Boston with abandonment issues. Please consider adopting before buying a dog. There are dogs of all ages, sizes and sexes who need loving homes.

[@paulashanks3129]

My boy Hugo is in love with me and very needy and I love him!! 💜

[@marwy8246]

I always wanted male Boston but the breeder decided after 3 months of waiting to keep him. So now i have opportunity to buy a female boston and i am little bit hesitant. But than if you are a man then female boston will love you more and if you are woman than male boston will adore you more. That's what they say in general. At the end of the day i feel like it doesn't matter.

[@staciegray7444]

I've had 3 females and they are very loving. I suggest you get a female if she is available.

[@brandonholmin5247]

Hmm should I get a male or female Boston terrier and the answer is YES!!!.

[@Yodee19]

We rescued both of our males, one black one brown and they are amazing! From the moment they met (both 2 years old) they have gotten along great. Do all Boston’s get along so well? Love your channel
