Reviews:

"Absolutely love this book. We have had our baby Boston Terrier for about 4 months and this gave us excellent & clear insight on the breed's key personality traits & how to work with them. I enjoyed reading the valuable experience & tips from professional breeders & owners. I can honestly say that if I were to recommend one book to someone looking to bring a Boston Terrier into their house, this is THE book," AMAZON CUSTOMER, USA

"We just brought home our new Boston Terrier last weekend. This book is the canine equivalent of the “What To Expect” series for expecting & new parents-it tells you everything you need to know. All the things you want to ask your vet, but they don’t know enough about the breed to give a proper answer, it’s in this book. Every silly thing about your Boston that only a Boston lover can appreciate, it’s in this book. All Boston Terrier parents must read!" COURTNEY B, ORANGE COUNTY, CA.

"We recently got a very young female Boston. We hadn’t had a pet for 15 years. Your manual was extremely helpful for us to know what to expect and you have been right about this breed. She is everything you indicated and we have followed your advice carefully," JANET MURCHISON, UK

"I'm a first time dog owner/Boston terrier owner and this book is fantastic. It's very informative, easy to read. I would highly recommend this book, it's an absolute bargain for the price," ALISON TURLEY, UK
