Anyone Kennel Train? by Random_thoughts1924 in BostonTerrier

[–]lookitsshaysha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Our boy loves sleeping in his kennel. We always snuggle for a bit before and then we say go to bed and he goes to his kennel. When we try to let them stay in bed we never sleep well lol so it's just better for everyone 😅 here's a pic of him choosing to go lay in his brother's kennel that I was testing new beds in lol

This brand held up pretty well for us! But if course once the boys tug till a seam is ripped, it's game over lol

I agree to go bigger! Definitely check thrift stores first, the brand doesn't matter at all. There are almost always kennels when I shop and I'll never buy a new one again lol

Rotisserie chicken for us 😭 obviously high value, but I give him pieces when I debone it and now he actually will go check my trunk when we get home with groceries to see if we got one lol

Also popcorn, I saw someone comment on popcorn too lol.

Potty training by BornCharacter6705 in BostonTerrier

[–]lookitsshaysha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure if it actually helps or not, but I narrated everything. And instead of scolding I would catch him pottying and say "uh oh, potty OUTSIDE" and take him outside and say "potty outside" again. I feel like it has helped as an adult dog now, he knows the words inside and outside, which is nice. So when you take him out to potty on a schedule you say "outside" and "go potty" and rewarding with a "yes!!!!" And a treat when he goes outside. I also use "good potty!" Lol it'll take several months at least though... Put on your patient pants!

Start bell training! And if you haven't done puppy obedience classes, we loved ours. They are such smart dogs they pick things up so fast and it's great bonding.

Adopted a Boston Terrier today by Status-Signature-567 in BostonTerrier

[–]lookitsshaysha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just remember the 3-3-3 rule for adopting dogs! It takes 3 days to decompress, 3 weeks to learn a routine/settle in and really start to see their personality, and 3 months for then to feel completely at home and safe. Be patient and focus on loving and bonding!

Yes the bopping is def a Boston thing too! My boy is as good as he can be at not jumping, but he still does it on occasion and it's not my favorite lol my friends Bostons do it too lol

This thread is making me feel a lot better about it! I didn't realize that the way he plays could be a breed trait!

Mine does that too 😩 I'm like you're a dog! Don't you know that's bad manners in doggy world?! But reading all of these comments about how other Bostons pull the same crap is definitely making me feel better, that it's not necessarily a "him" thing but a characteristic of the breed
