About the Boston Terrier
Known for their the American Gentleman, charming and enthusiastic but easily overexcited with a flat face that limits exercise tolerance, Boston Terriers have a clownish energy and tuxedo-wearing charm that makes them everyone's favorite — and a handful at home.
Common Boston Terrier Training Challenges
The most common challenge Boston Terrier owners face is overexcitement and difficulty focusing during training. Other frequent issues include overexcitement, gas, stubbornness, and brachycephalic training limitations.
Sound familiar?
Picture your Bostons spinning in circles when excited, pulling toward every person on the street, and barking like a maniac at the doorbell.
The Right Training Approach for Boston Terriers
The key to training a Boston Terrier lies in leveraging their natural desire to make you laugh and eagerness for treats that turns training into a fun game they actually want to play. Work with their instincts, not against them.
Breed-Specific Training Tip
Boston Terriers overheat quickly due to their flat faces. Train in cool environments, keep sessions under 10 minutes, and use calm energy. Their excitement feeds off yours.
Boston Terrier puppies are energetic but overheat easily. Start training in short bursts and always in temperature-controlled environments.
The Transformation
Whether your Boston Terrier is a hyperactive puppy or a 4-year-old who still acts like one, the right training approach transforms them. Imagine your little tuxedo-clad Boston sitting politely when someone approaches, walking briskly beside you without pulling, and going to their bed when the doorbell rings.
