Before homecoming
Prepare a quiet sleep space, puppy-safe rooms, food and water bowls, a secure harness, identification, and an appointment with your veterinarian.
Puppy care & resources
A confident beginning, one day at a time.
Practical guidance for preparing your home, building trust, and supporting your Boston Terrier through puppyhood and beyond.
The first 72 hours
Keep the schedule simple. Offer frequent potty breaks, predictable meals, abundant sleep, gentle connection, and time to observe the new environment.
Feeding & growth
Continue the provided food and schedule at first. Make dietary changes gradually and use your veterinarian’s guidance to maintain healthy growth.
Training with kindness
Reward the behavior you want, keep sessions short, and build confidence through consistency. Boston Terriers thrive on connection and clear routines.
Socialization
Introduce people, sounds, surfaces, handling, and safe environments gradually. Quality, choice, and positive experiences matter more than intensity.
Boston Terrier wellbeing
Protect against heat, watch breathing during exercise, maintain a healthy weight, keep facial folds clean, and schedule regular preventive care.
Lifetime support
You do not have to figure it out alone.
