Part of the "mighty dog" family, the Boston Terrier was first
acknowledged by the American Kennel Club in the late 19th century. The
breed first arrived in Great Britain in the early 1920's. The breed is
sometimes (though rarely ) referred to as the "Boston Bull". The Boston
Terrier is a quiet, friendly dog, who was first bred for pitfighting and
controlling vermin. Strong-willed and intelligent yet adaptable. An
affectionate breed which is usually even tempered and a good house dog.
The breed is named after the city of its origin and was believed to be
first created in 1865 by crossing a British Bulldog with a White English
