Any Boston Terrier fans?

[ursulawrite]

Just thought I'd post some pictures of my four-year-old girl, Stella. She is ridiculously mellow for a BT, and likes nothing better than fetching her tennis ball (surely the world champion in the 15-20lbs division), giving kisses, taking in the sun, and going to the park to be chased by gigantic dogs

(Hmmm, my photos don't appear to have worked. Lemme see...)

 

[ursulawrite]

Trying again...

 

[ursulawrite]

Well, I''m going to go with the assumption that it''s one picture per post...

 

[ursulawrite]

And another...

 

[ursulawrite]

Rather handily, she also matches the shade of my floor

 

[ursulawrite]

Resourceful to the last... If there is no ball to hand, why not fell a sapling

 

[ursulawrite]

Last one. Hope you enjoyed the smooshiness!

Awe she''s a cutie. I love Boston Terriers

-They are my breed of choice. BT''s just loooove their toys & have great personalities, all around great dogs.

She''s adorable. I kept looking at the title of the thread and thinking that it referred to a sports team...but I had no idea what sport the Boston Terriers would play and felt strange about the name. Finally I opened up the thread and sanity came rushing back to fill in the blank. Yes, I have seen a Boston Terrier before, but never one as cute and charming as yours!

She''s a sweetie - I love those ears!

She''s so cute! There is a BT at our local dog park that I just LOVE. Maybe for doggie #2 in a few years...

Well, you wouldn''t be far wrong, seeing as Boston University''s sportsteams are called the Terriers.

And thank you--I happen to think she''s cute and charming, too, as well as being a riproaringly funny comedian

Thank you!

The bed is from Trixie and Peanut, and we had to have it because it went so perfectly with our decor. I''m not sure what colour the floors are, though; my husband is the design nut and almost exclusively liaised with our architect during our apartment''s refurb. The Boston Terrier colour in question, though, is called "seal" (appears black except in sunlight) so maybe that might help you out. Or not.

Ohhhhhhhh............that first picture is beyond cute! Her little face, those little eyes and ears. She. Is. Adorable. And I love the last shot of her running - with her ears all back and head smooth - my pugs do that when they rudder-butt around our house/yard. Please please please post more pics. (runs to get husband to show him).

Stella is such a cutie patootie!!! She really looks like a "Stella!" Great pics, what kind of camera do you use to get such fab action shots?

 

[Alienor]

She looks like a happy camper. Treasure her! She seems a sweetie.

It''s the Canon Rebel XTi with a Tamron 300mm lens.

Here are a couple more shots. Not to bore you all or anything

Searching in vain for a lost ball...

More daring feats of athleticism...

And *owning* Central Park.

 

[simplysplendid]

She is a beauty! (and her colour matches your interior deco too

)..

 

[Rock Candy]

I so enjoyed looking at your pictures! In the very first pix with her ears up, she looks like a bunny! Love the picture of her in Central Park - she looks very regal.

You''re a great photographer and captured her personality for all of us to see! Thanks for sharing!

 

[iheartscience]

Aw, she''s gorgeous! I love your pictures, too! I really like the one of her searching for the lost ball in the tall plants-adorable!

My sister''s old roommate got a BT puppy when they were still living together, and he is a lot of fun! I wouldn''t call him calm, though!

Yes! In the picture on the white blanket! I thought from the beginning that she looked like a bunny rabbit! Adorable. But since I like dogs even more than rabbits, what could be cuter than a dog? So I never mentioned bunnies....
