Feeding Frenzy: Fueling Your Mini-Moustache
Boston Terriers may be small, but their appetites can be deceiving.** High-quality kibble** is key, specifically formulated for their short snouts and active lifestyles. Don't be fooled by those pleading eyes – resist the urge to overfeed. A chunky Boston is an unhappy Boston, prone to health problems. Remember, portion control is your friend (and your wallet's!).
Word to the Wise: Avoid fatty foods and treats. Boston Terriers are sensitive souls, and greasy indulgences can lead to nasty stomach upsets.
Exercise Escapades: Keeping Your Tuxedoed Tornado Happy
Boston Terriers are spunky little athletes, but their flat faces can make them overheat easily. Daily walks are a must, but keep them short and sweet during hot weather. Indoor playtime is a great alternative – think interactive toys, puzzle feeders, and even indoor obstacle courses (carefully curated, of course, to avoid broken lamps).
QuickTip: Compare this post with what you already know.
Brain Games Matter: Don't underestimate the power of mental stimulation! Boston Terriers are clever cookies, and keeping their minds occupied helps prevent boredom and destructive chewing.

Boston Terriers have some unique features that require a little TLC. Their adorable wrinkles can trap moisture, creating a breeding ground for bacteria. Regular cleaning with a damp cloth is key.

QuickTip: Stop to think as you go.
Love and Laughter: The Secret Ingredients
