History
Unlike most breeds, the origin of the Boston 테리어 is well-documented. Around 1865, the coachmen employed 의해 the wealthy people of Boston began to interbreed some of their employers' fine dogs. One of these crosses, between an English 테리어 and a bulldog, resulted in a dog named Hooper's Judge. Although Judge weighed over 30 pounds, he was bred to a smaller female, and their son was in turn bred to another smaller female. Their progeny, probably interbred with one 또는 더 많이 French bulldogs, provided the foundation for the Boston terrier. 의해 1889, the breed had become sufficiently 인기 in Boston that fanciers formed the American 황소, 불 테리어 Club, but this proposed name for the breed was not well-received 의해 황소, 불 테리어 fanciers. The breed's nickname, roundheads, was similarly inappropriate. Shortly after, the breed was named the Boston terrier, after its birthplace. The Boston's rise from nonexistence to AKC recognition was meteoric 의해 modern standards, as the breed was recognized 의해 the AKC in 1893, less than 20 years after the breed was born. Breeders continued to seek greater consistency. In early years, color and markings were not particularly important, but 의해 the early 1900s, the breed's distinctive markings had become an essential breed feature. The handsome little Boston 테리어 quickly gained favor throughout America, ranking as one of the most 인기 breeds in the early to middle 1900s and retaining great popularity today.
Temperament
The Boston is devoted and sensitive to its owner's wishes and moods. It is well-mannered indoors but saucy and playful (especially enjoying ball chasing) whenever the chance arises. Somewhat stubborn, it is nonetheless clever and learns readily. It is reserved with strangers, and some may be aggressive toward strange dogs. Some bark a lot.
Upkeep
This is a lively dog that needs daily exercise and interaction with its people. It loves games, and most of its exercise requirements can be met with a romp in the yard 또는 a short walk on leash. It cannot live outdoors. Some Bostons wheeze and snore, and many don't tolerate heat well. The 코트 requires only minimal care, an occasional brushing to remove dead hairs.
Health
• Major concerns: none
• Minor concerns: cataract, PDA, patellar luxation, stenotic nares
• Occasionally seen: deafness, hydrocephalus, esophageal achalasia,
distichiasis, persistent right aortic arch
• Suggested tests: none
• Life span: 10 – 14 years
• NOTE: This breed does not tolerate the heat and is sensitive to
anesthesia. It is prone to corneal abrasions. Caesarian deliveries
are commonly needed.
Form and Function
The Boston 테리어 is a compactly built, square-
proportioned, short-backed, clean-cut dog. It should convey the impression of determination, strength, sturdiness, liveliness, and style, with a graceful carriage. It retains many of the attributes of its bulldog ancestors, but in a clean-cut package that makes a handy house companion. Its short fine coat, with distinctive markings, adds to its dapper appearance.
