Show breeders often have retired adults or older puppies available to the perfect forever pet homes as well!
Sometimes we hold on to puppies in hopes they will be our next champion but sometimes they either lack the atttitude or have a small fault that keeps them from being competitive in the ring. These puppies are then placed in pet homes.
Sometimes we have an adult female that has already become a champion and produced a litter or two of puppies, been spayed and is now in need of a good family home where they can retire and enjoy being a special family member.
Sometimes we have an adult male champion that has produced future show prospects and now is ready to be a speical pet for the right person.
These older puppies or middle aged adults make the perfect choice as a pet since they are already house broken, leash trained and usualy have some manners. They have also already had and cleared all thier health testing such as BAER, CERF, Patella.
Something to think about when looking for a Boston Terrier.
Puppies tend to be a lot of work and require a lot of attention and time to be trained, etc. the older puppies or adults usually fit right into new homes and you have an instant family member!
