You may have heard certain breeders talk about “mini” Boston Terriers.
Let me set the record straight … “mini” Boston Terriers do not exist. If you happen to come across a breeder who says they sell “mini” or “teacup” Boston Terriers, BEWARE.
The breeder is most likely a dishonest, backyard breeder who is trying to monetize on a puppy’s misfortunate health condition.
The average size for a Boston Terrier should be as follows:
Height: 15-17 inches
Weight: 10-25 pounds
If you find a Boston Terrier that is less than 10 pounds it will most likely develop an array of health issues. A “mini” Boston Terrier may be the result of a runt bred with another runt- which will result in genetic health problems.
Realize that “mini” Bostons are not recognized by the AKC and should not be bred.
