Fra'Tan "Sticky hands coming at you" L. says: Boston Terriers are too much to control and they get out of hand often. They also bark a lot. And they're just mean generally.

NO animals ever do this.

Yep, it's amazing.  I remember my brother tying up our phone line for hours and we had an old TV as a monitor.

I have a soft coated wheaten terrier (pic in my profile). Medium sized (35 pounds) and they don't shed. What sold us on the breed was an article we read that said, "if you're looking for a watchdog this isn't the breed for you, everyone is their new best friend".
