Boston Terriers are the most child friendly dogs that I have ever found. They are very protective of children and most do not bite. They love to play and spend time with their families.They shed very little and are not a lot of work to groom, but they do like to have their hair brushed once a week or so.

I recomend that you first teach the child how to properly respect and care for a dog before getting one. Boston terriers are the most playful and frienly dogs...read full review »
Boston Terriers have got to be the best dog breed out there. Not only are they the cutest, they are extremely intelligent. I remember before I got mine that I always heard that they don't bark. Prior to buying mine, I have only ever heard one Boston Terrier bark. I never heard the one I bought bark until I took him home. Now he always barks when we leave the house and he's alone. My point is that Boston Terriers do bark so don't let anyone tell you otherwise.
