History of the Boston Terrier Breed

While the exact origin of the Boston terrier is questionable, as more than one story abounds, it is true that it is an American breed. Some say that the dog is a result of crossing the English bulldog with a white English terrier. According to this account, it is said that around 1870, a Bostonian named William O'Brien sold "Judge" - an imported dog - to a fellow Bostonian named Robert C. Hooper. According to this story, "Hooper's Judge" is the original ancestor to the modern Boston terrier. Hooper's Judge was mated with a female dog, reportedly named either "Gyp" or "Kate," and the offspring was a dog named "Wells' Eph." Wells' Eph was mated with "Tobin's Kate" and the Boston terrier breed is said to have evolved from these four dogs. Another story is similar, and claims that at around 1865, coachmen who were working for wealthy families in Boston were the ones who started to interbreed some of their employers' dogs. It is said that one of these pairings, again between an English terrier and a bulldog, produced a dog that came to be known as "Hooper's Judge." In this account, Hooper's Judge was said to have weighed over 30 pounds. Allegedly he was mated with a smaller female, and the male offspring was later bred to another smaller female. Some believe that later generations were likely bred with French bulldogs. It was in 1889 that the breed gained popularity in Boston, and fanciers formed the American Bull Terrier Club. However, that name for the breed was not well received. Shortly thereafter, the breed was named after its birthplace, and the name Boston terrier was adopted. It is said that this breed was originally used for fighting, but today the breed does not generally show any type of aggressive behavior. The Boston terrier was recognized by the AKC in 1893.
