All American Gentleman
We are a small hobby breeder and fancier. We got started in Boston Terriers in 2005 while looking for a dog for
my daughter to show in the AKC Junior program. The minute we got our first Boston we were hooked. Not only my
daughter but our whole family. Boston Terriers are a most enduring breed, while small enough to be a true
companion dog, a structurally sound Boston can compete in any and all sporting events. Not only are they athletic
but they are highly intelligent and only aim to please you as their human which makes them extremely easy to
train.
Our only goal and desire as a breeder is to try better the breed and never harm this wonderful breed. In order
to do this we breed only to the official Boston Terrier standard. All of our Boston Terriers are health tested
(CERF, BAER and Patella and DNA tested for the JC gene) and registered with OFA. As I plan to do more than
conformation events with some of our Boston’s I also like a full spine x-ray to make sure they are sound enough to
do agility events. The Boston Terrier is a brachycephalic breed, brachy meaning short and cephalic meaning head.
There can be many inherent problems with this breed. Some general problems that can occur without careful
breeding are, stenotic nares, elongated soft palate, cleft palates, tracheal stenosis, and hernias. Boston Terriers
also have very prominent eyes and eye problems can run rampant. Brachycephalic breeds are prone to heat stress,
so special attention to environment is a must. Having said all that there is no need to be frightened to own one of
these lovable, most wonderful dogs. You do however need to do your homework and thoroughly research your
breeder. The breeder is the key to obtaining a happy, healthy Boston. When you are ready to get your first
Boston, read all you can, study the official standard and ask many, many questions. If the breeder can’t or won’t
answer your questions find another one. A great place to start is with the BTCA breeder referral.
The Breeding of these dogs is a huge undertaking, the average litter size is 3 and many times only one. The pups
are usually large and the dam typically requires a c-section for a safe delivery. That along with all the testing
does not make this a profitable breed to breed. Please be aware of people breeding colored Bostons, they are not
bred to the standard set for the Boston Terrier by the BTCA or AKC. Even though they are registered with AKC
it does not mean they are bred to the standard, AKC is only a registry and not an enforcer. This is a wonderful
breed, bred to the standard, the crossing with other breeds and breeding only for color does harm to this most
wonderful breed, please don't be fooled by these people. The founders and forefathers of this wonderful breed
had all the colors available to them also, they chose to disqualify these colors for a reason. Please respect the
founders of the breed by not supporting the breeders of colored BT's or breeders that cross the Boston with other
breeds.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions you might have about Boston Terriers. While I am new to the
breed I have spent countless hours learning and studying this breed. Our Boston’s are family members first and
show dogs second. They have the run of the house and are only in crates while I’m out. We feed Prairie brand
dog food by Natures Variety with a few spoonfuls of homemade wet food. We also follow a reduced vaccine
protocol which I feel is a safer way to vaccinate your Boston’s.
Thank you for visiting our website, I hope you enjoy it.
