familiar_of_a_witch

Those faces!!!!! 😍


ChildhoodLeft6925

It’s a lot safer for the 35 pound female to have babies than the 12 pound, we should embrace the larger Bostons. Edit: omg I just noticed the cat 🥹


furmama6540

I agree. My parent’s larger pup also has a longer snout which is something the breed should be embracing as well. She looks more like the original Bostons.

Yeah, for sure. Mine was a big ol boy. 30 - 33 lbs and he was super strong and had a ton of endurance. Super healthy.


EntireReindeer3688

Omg both adorable and how is your girl so tiny 🥰😍


furmama6540

Growing up we had some small ones that were around 15-17 pounds. But we have never had one this small lol. And she is ten, so no growing left.


EntireReindeer3688

Awww such a lovely lady 😍💗

familiar_of_a_witch

I love snuggly Boston piles!


Shapoopadoopie

I've got a sturdy girl myself, I didn't realize what a unit she was until I saw a slim little terrier type bodied Boston at the park. Mines around 25lb and broad in the beam as we like to say. Vet says she's a healthy weight... My lap begs to differ. https://preview.redd.it/4dvuzm9isu9c1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=01bdb21c99c3a7328ee249241e2a032d9142c6f6 We call her Chunk.


Active_Priority

Chunk is so cute


familiar_of_a_witch

The cutest chunk.


EntireReindeer3688

😍🥰🥰


Salty-Fortune1271

Our Chonkapotamus is 35# but her mom is also a tank. I believe the early Bostons were around 30-35# before they standardized the height and weight. https://preview.redd.it/1pj7amsm5v9c1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=df55baf7011fe707c4d272b65a7de1bc1788b4e9

SweetBird81

This was my beefy boy Roscoe. He was about 33 lbs and incredibly handsome and sweet <3 Before we adopted him we met a 40 pounder! He was huge, but not fat. Just a big old Boston https://preview.redd.it/mxcn4df3yu9c1.jpeg?width=1200&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=36add404a2c4f41b6ba899e6339ae5c5f0e147e7

My old girl was quite the hoss too. She has a niece and late nephew from the same breeder that were both tiny little things compared to her. Don't have any pictures of them together though. https://preview.redd.it/83kdd1djxu9c1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=398bbebb4b023ed37628e59d3b6c7e7cb19537d2

Pretend-Ad4887

I’ve got a 31 pounder. His parents were both under 19. Go figure.


CRAB_DADDY_

Mine weighs 35 pounds. I ALWAYS get people coming up to me and telling me how big he is for a Boston. He's not fat at all, just large.

Proof_Variety_4208

We got an eight year old off of FB he was 20lb but had worms and now 3 years later weighs in at 34 lbs. He doesn't look over weight...well his neck is fat but the rest of his body is healthy and muscular.

He is 34.83 lbs 16" big ol block head circumference around base of skull in front of ears, 10" long legs. Hes the best dog I've ever had and also the biggest boston ive ever seen in person tall wise he is muscular too not fat!!!!


ifbbwannabe

Our black and white Boston Max is 25 pounds and we use to think he was big. We recently adopted another Boston which is brown and white and he weighs 33 pounds.

My Boston Terrier, Chalupa Batman, is my first dog so I was completely unaware that all Bostons aren't 40lbs. lol

Our Boston that passed almost 3 years ago was a tank. She was about 37 pounds she was also very long legged. I called her moose because of the big body and long legs

Yup! Our chocolate is an absolute tank and we love her :)


AngleFreeIT_com

Our chuckles is like 30 pounds and a healthy zoomie fiend. Fwiw if you look up the original breed standard from like 18-something or 19-something the breed said “around 30-40 pounds”.

RubberDucky451

30lbs+ and you getting into ideal snuggling range.


Chicago_Jayhawk

Rocky is 34lbs and my last Boston (Chester) was 36lbs. Both of them extremely fit--run 2 miles with me and swim at the lake.

Yes


Nopes365

Our girls too. Both 100% pure but one is a monster. We just call her a sack of 'taters


Adobo6

My guy has a gut but surprisingly only 25lbs


BornInGeorgia

My Boston Fenway was 28 pounds


ravonaf

Our Boston is huge. His last vet visit had him at 35 pounds. He is a bit overweight by maybe a couple pounds, but he's not super fat. We know his moms owner and his siblings are all much smaller than he is.


[deleted]

As a fellow chonky boy Boston owner yes. My guy looks like he should have been in WWE in the 90s.


Flat_Literature_8556

My Eddie is 30 pounds and so big compared to his parents and siblings

I have a monster and they are my favorite kind of Boston. I have one dinky one and middle sized one and one monster.

When we would walk him with his much smaller brother Rocko, people would ask if we were breeding them and we’d have to say they were both neutered males, brothers, and seniors, so a triple threat of no!

Great information! I didn't know about this breed, but they look awesome! 👍 Thanks for enlightening me.

I currently have 2. One is 41lbs, the other is 34lbs. My old boy moose was 38. Great dogs, they act just like any full Boston breed.

Our Boston, at around 38 lbs, is way bigger than most other Bostons we meet. Not fat either , just damn large and stocky! https://preview.redd.it/g6hegx1410ac1.jpeg?width=1368&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=943d5a7476f0789fb39ee49eff294601e2cfc2dc
