sounds she had quite the life..
and good for you too though..in lots of ways
bostons are great pets...
and some are very clingy by nature..
My boston was always with me..always
I think that is part of being a boston
they are great companions and great family dogs too..
although I love my bulldogs and my pugs..
i still have a soft spot for all boston terriers
HOPE you post an updated PIC Of Daisi again soon..
she is such a sweetie.

thanks for sharing her story with me..
I truly do love the boston terrier as well
she looks very tiny in the pics though
what does she weigh??
my boston was 13.9 when I got her at 9 months
and the same weight at 19 and half when I had to put her down..she was tiny and fiesty..lol

I had wanted a dog when I was living in the city in Vancouver. I lived in a small studio and was interested in a pug or a boston. A bulldog was out of the question, there really are none in rescue there and they are in high demand. So I emailed a few breeders asking if they knew of any adults that needed homes. One "breeder" told me she had a male but he was agressive and a female and she was needy. She wanted to re-home them.

I arrived at a mobile home. The owner let me enter and it was full of crates with bostons in them and a pen with puppies. There must have been 15 dogs or more Daisi immediately came to me and was stuck like glue so i took her home. I did not pay for her, just agreed to spay her. She didn't need a lot of medical care at the time, she was turning 6. The years following though her eyes have needed care, we almost lost one last year. She is blind in that eye from an ulceration. Her boobs were sagging to the ground when I got her from apparently one litter, LOL! Right! Her tumors have been there since I got her but the vets all thought they were harmless until the past years and most recently she was diagnosed with mammary cancer. So we removed all her breast tissue.

She is pretty spunky but very attached to me. We've been through a lot together. Moves from Canada to the US and back more than once. She is like a security blanket for me now which probably is not healthy. She is a lot more independent than she was. She has a sweet temperment and she never kicks up a fuss if we travel with her or anything. She really is the best.

Mine don't care at all, me, hubby, the cat, a burglar, if they are being fed their happy! I think they like it when other people feed them as they get to break the mealtime "wait until you're told" rule!

She'd take dinner from Satan himself!

as long as they are fed, my 10 year old grandaughter is learning to be a pack leader, she is awesome with Lily

my boston when I had her would NOT eat from anyone here..
when I went into the hospital she only ate enough to survive and that was it..
very very little from anyone..
came home and she pigged out alot more.
bostons have very strong attachments..
how did you get Daisi Rae??

yes, she extercising her grouchy ol lady gig!!! lol!! Gotta love the ol ladies.

so at this point not really sure of working on changing that behavior, it's a recent thing as well. She is a picky little brat!

it must be a bully thing, but my babies will eat anything from anyone. Well with Mallie, she's a bloodhound and is the same. Your Boston must have a strong attachment to you. That might be something you want to work on. You never know when you won't be home to feed. And if your bullies are like mine, a bowl of food wouldn't be safe sitting around. lol!!

if my son is home
they will eat if he feeds them too
the bulldogs for sure..
but NOT the pugs
I have to feed them or they will not touch it..EVER

As long as it's food he likes

I Know bostons come in 3 sizes..
mine was very small but not as tiny as some of the 10 pound bostons that I have seen
and not as big as the 25 bostons that I have seen ..lol
i love the bigger bostons..stalky types..
