The Boston Terrier, and All about It by Edward Axtell Pdf

Excerpt from The Boston Terrier, and All About It: A Practical, Scientific, and Up to Date Guide, to the Breeding of the American Dog The men composing the Boston Terrier Club, who framed this standard in 1900, were as thoughtful a body as could possibly be gotten together, and they carefully considered and de liberated over every point at issue, and in my estimation this standard is as near perfect as any can be. I was an interested participant in the discussion of the same, having in my mind's eye as models those two noted dogs owned by that wonderful judge of the breed, Mr. Alex. Goode, Champion Monte, and his illustrious sire, Buster. If one takes the pains to analyze the standard he will be impressed by the perfect co-relation of harmony of all parts of the dog, from the tip of his broad, even muzzle, to the end of his short screw tail. Nothing incongruous in its makeup presents itself, but a graceful, symmetrical style characterizes the dog, and I firmly believe that any change whatever would be a detriment.

A Matter of Breeding by Michael Brandow Pdf

A provocative look at the “cult of pedigree” and an entertaining social history of purebred dogs In this illuminating and entertaining social history, social critic Michael Brandow probes the “cult of pedigree” and traces the commercial rise of the purebred dog. Combining consumer studies with sharp commentary, A Matter of Breeding reveals the sordid history of the dog industry and shows how our brand-name pets—from Labs to French bulldogs and everything in between—pay the price with devastatingly poor health.

The Complete Guide to Boston Terriers by Vanessa Richie Pdf

Known as the American gentleman, the Boston Terrier always appears to be ready for sophisticated fun. But owning one can come with its own set of unique challenges for an owner who is unprepared for the quirks and personality of this loveable, but often mischievous breed. Written by experienced author and dog owner Vanessa Richie, The Complete Guide to Boston Terriers is an excellent overview of the breed, covering everything a new owner will need to know to successfully raise their BT. Plus, it contains information, tips, and advice from some of the top Boston Terrier breeders in the world. Be prepared to take on the challenges of owning a Boston Terrier by learning about: Picking the right Boston Terrier for your family and home Preparing to bring your BT home Boston Terrier health and wellness Integrating your new BT with your current pets Housetraining Boston Terrier socialization Training Nutrition Grooming Genetic health concerns common to Boston Terriers Caring for an aging Boston Terrier Generally considered a fantastic dog for first time dog families, the Boston Terrier has an incredibly friendly personality that makes him a great addition to any home. Socialization is fairly easy because the breed is naturally friendly. Training may be a bit more difficult, particularly housetraining, so do be prepared to put in a lot of extra patience and some extra time to get your puppy to the point where accidents become a thing of the past. They adore their people, though some are prone to choosing one favorite person, and it will be obvious as they will become like a shadow to their favorite person. This is also a breed that has a wide range of personalities, with some being bouncy and fun, while others are more dignified and mellow. What most of them have in common though is how much they enjoy spending time with the people in their lives. They are also easy to integrate into a home with other dogs, and even cats – as long as the cat doesn’t totally object to your new dog. The biggest drawback to the breed is their numerous genetic health issues. Part of the issues stem from the fact that the Boston Terrier has a short nose, which increases the number of issues with their large eyes and hampers their ability to breath as easily as dogs with longer snouts. They are also prone to bother allergies and stomach sensitivities, so you will need to be careful about what you feed your dog and how much the environment affects your pup. Most of the ailments are not life-threatening – they have a life expectancy between 13 and 15 years. They are also incredibly easy to groom with their short-haired coats.

The Boston Terrier (A Vintage Dog Books Breed Classic) by E.J. Rousuck Pdf

Originally published in 1926, this scarce early work on the Boston Terrier is both expensive and hard to find in its first edition. VINTAGE DOG BOOKS have now republished it, using the original text and photographs, as part of their CLASSIC BREED BOOKS series. The Boston Terrier is fondly known as "The American Dog." It is supposedly the only dog originally bred in America and, like everything else truly American, they came from Boston Town. The author's aim in this work was to "rehearse the principal factors in both the human and technical sides of the history of the Boston Terrier." It is intended to give the reader an expert's guide as to the rearing, showing, and the fundamentals as to what constitutes a really typical Boston Terrier. The book's two hundred pages contain ten comprehensive and illustrated chapters: - The Melting Pot of Dogdom. - Origins. - Characteristics of the Head. - Characteristics of the Body. - Training and Feeding the Youngsters. - Showing. - Diseases. - Foundation Strains. - Relation of the Present Day Strains to Foundation Strains. - Boston Terrier Standard. - Index. Also present are many black and white photos of Champions plus text illustrations. This is a fascinating read for any Boston Terrier enthusiast or historian of the breed, and also contains much information that is still practical and useful today. Many of the earliest dog breed books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. VINTAGE DOG BOOKS are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
