The Boston Terrier is a charming and affectionate breed known for its distinctive "tuxedo" markings and gentle disposition. Originally bred as a companion dog, this breed has a strong, happy-go-lucky personality with a merry sense of humor. Boston Terriers are generally eager to please, easy to train, and enjoy being around people. They get along well with children, the elderly, and other pets when properly socialized. Although they can be protective of their owners, they are not typically aggressive and are well-suited for apartment living due to their quiet nature and moderate exercise needs. Overall, Boston Terriers make delightful family dogs.
