Some terrier breeds have natural bobtails, meaning they are born with short or no tails due to a genetic mutation. This trait has been selectively bred in certain terrier breeds to avoid tail docking while maintaining the desired appearance of the breed.
The Boston Terrier is a small, lively dog breed classified under the non-sporting group. They are known for their tuxedo-like markings and friendly, gentle demeanor. Boston Terriers are adaptable and make great companions for families and individuals alike.
i have a 9 week old wire haired jrt with a very curly tail, almost like a Japanese akita tail haha, i also have a 5 month old smooth haired jrt with a straight tail, so in my opinion i think it just depends on the pups lol and the breeding
Boston Terriers may eat their own feces due to a variety of reasons such as boredom, seeking attention, nutritional deficiencies, or copying a behavior they witnessed. This behavior, known as coprophagia, should be discouraged through training and providing a balanced diet to prevent any health issues.
Boston Terriers are somewhat prone to gastrointestinal distress, due to the shape of their mouths and the ensuing difficulty in eating (they tend to toss the food whole down their throats), therefore, it is not unusual for them to defecate several times a day.
they don't have the nerve endings to do it
Pug Boston terriors have curly tails because they must have got that part from the pug parent.
Yes, Boston Terriers can have their tails docked. However, Boston Terriers with docked tails are disapproved or even disqualified by some reputable kennel clubs such as the American Kennel Club (AKC). Docking of tails on dogs is also banned in some countires, including the United Kingdom. Some people believe that docking is cruel, as this process is done when the puppy is only a few days old and causes great pain. Docking is also unnecessary, and should not be done unless if you want to enter the dog into a dog show in the future.
Although it is unusual, a Boston Terriers tail can be crooked, have bumps, or the dog may have no tail at all.
No they don't. The American Kennel Club is tyring to bring back the long tail.
