Dan......When DH and I met, I had a registered Boston Terrier that I adored. I had just ended a 3 yr relationship and she was MY baby and my Sanity! 2 yrs later after DH and I got married. I usually kept her in the house when I was at work but on days when the weather was especially nice I would leave her outside in the backyard in a kennel. One day I returned home from work to find her kennel wide open and she was missing. I panicked. Hubby had come home from lunch and PG was there. Neighbor said he saw a man in a white van in our driveway around 2 in the afternoon. A week later I still had not found her but had gotten calls from other people that had dogs missing too. I've not seen her since. A yr later I bought another Boston. This time I watched her closer and never left her outside when I wasn't home. One day she was outside and wandered off. I haven't seen her since either. My heart was totally broken. Hubby suggested getting a Dashund but I just couldn't let go of my Bostons. Now, 15 yrs later, I'm wanting a Boston, he's wanting a Dashund and neither one of us are willing to give. So we don't have an inside dog...but we do have an awesome Lab that we love dearly. I'm hoping some day to talk Hubby into another Boston. He likes Dashunds best. Enjoy your puppy. They are truly intelligent dogs and very loving---BUT they sure do snore!! And don't feed
her canned dog food. Doesn't settle on their tummy's very good!!! PEEEEEEE YOU!!!!
