I'm the breeder behind BFF Bostons located in Battle Ground, WA. My goal with each puppy is to make sure they are happy, healthy, loved, confident and socialized. This, to me, makes the perfect pet. I love what I do - these dogs have made my life whole. I hope you find this in your Boston Terrier too.
Q. & A. with Heather
Why did you start breeding?
My husband and I have always had big dogs. We had a Bullmastiff and a chocolate Lab, but they were very old and sadly we knew their time with us was limited. So we started looking for a dog that was small but tough like a big dog, loyal, loving, and could take the abusive love of a toddler. After meeting with a local breeder, we fell in love with Boston Terriers and got one. Having such a great dog has made the decision to beautify the world one Boston at a time, an easy decision.
What makes your program special?
I am not a kennel. There are no cages. They come out of the puppy room to play in our house. Each puppy gets love and one-on-one time. At 3 weeks I allow the new owners to come bond with their puppies as often as they like. Many of my friends come over after work for puppy therapy. If you are local or willing to make the drive, I encourage you to come meet our family and see what Bffbostons is all about
