The Boston Terrier is an American breed that traces its origins back to the late 19th century. This breed is a mix of the English Bulldog and the now-extinct White English Terrier, developed in Boston, Massachusetts—hence the name "Boston Terrier." Initially bred as a fighting dog, the breed's temperament shifted over time through selective breeding to create the friendly, lively, and adaptable companion we know today. The Boston Terrier was officially recognized by the American Kennel Club (AKC) in 1893 and has since become known as the "American Gentleman" due to its refined appearance, playful personality, and tuxedo-like coat pattern.
