| Can Boston Terriers Sleep Outside |
Weather Woes: Sunshine or Shivers?
Boston Terriers are like living thermometers. Their short, sleek coat offers minimal protection from the elements. Hot summer nights? No problem! They might even appreciate a cool patch of grass to sprawl on. But frigid winter evenings? Forget about it. These little guys will be shivering faster than a chihuahua in a snowstorm.
Tip: Revisit challenging parts.
Here's a handy rule of thumb: If you yourself wouldn't be comfortable sleeping outside, neither would your Boston Terrier.

Security Snoozes: Keeping Your Furry Friend Safe
So you've established it's a balmy summer night. But before you turn your Boston Terrier into a canine night watchman, consider these security risks:
