Let's talk Boston Terriers
The first official breed to be created in the US, Boston Terriers are intelligent dogs with bags of character. Friendly, outgoing and well-mannered dogs, not for nothing are they known as ‘the American gentleman’—female Boston Terriers were clearly not consulted. Their stylish ‘tuxedo’ markings only add to their dashing effect. Such is the affection for the Boston Terrier in their home state of Massachusetts that they are also an official state symbol.
