I found a Chihuahua/Boston mix at shelter in 2017. She is the miracle I needed. She was 3 + or -, and the most wonderful creature ever. I can't say more except that she amazes me daily 😂❤

As a long time Boston owner I agree with your opinion of Bostons. Greatest, smartest and rewarding dogs ever.

This might be my favorite video that you've produced. Cooper steals the show every time.

Having my BT in my life has been my greatest experience, and I've had kids and climbed Kilimanjaro! She is so intelligent, loving, and funny. I, too, have mine crate-trained. It allows us to take her everywhere (although once we get where we're going, she sits on my husband's lap). It's also where she sleeps at night on our bed, and relaxes throughout the day. I give her a tiny salmon treat every time she goes in so she's very happy to do so. I can't believe this breed isn't more popular - they're just incredible. I've met so many BT past and present owners who just rave about their dogs, even a burly guy who had a tattoo of his on his arm!

Absolutely BEAUTIFUL with the training!!! My male Boston, that passed away at 14 years old, was just like that too. He was SO SMART, and paid such close attention to me and all my commands. I miss him SO MUCH!

These dogs are amazing. They're not a shivery "yappy" breed. They have the personality have a big dog in a small body. Kinda like mini boxers. You can take them places and exercise hike etc unlike French bulldogs pugs and other Brachy breeds.

Good talk about crate training. I'm not expert, but it's tough. I've dealt with several puppies and the first few weeks can be rough until they settle in to the household. It's easier when they are little (I had to work with a 2 yr old husky/malalmute and get him to chill in his crate. Feeding in the crate helps (even hand feeding). It's good to create a safe place for them to go and relax.

It's invaluable for so many things like travel.

Another important command we always taught our dogs is “Leave It!” You’ll find it useful in so many situations. It may even save you a trip to the vet.

Love how you throw the box and contents wherever. Classic. : ) Something I would do.

Def time for a crate thats a little bigger if he's in that long. I know its a safe space but he should be able to stand without issue. Maybe I couldnt see properly at the angle.

Wow--you are doing such a great job with Cooper's training. If only everybody understood the need for this. He is happier & safer & you are happier as a result. I have always had great dogs--put in a lot of training & spend their lifetime enjoying & loving them. For the last 14 years I have been working with a rescue. I have had successes & a couple of not so greats. I currently have a permanent foster who is an older dog with some health issues & he is hard to train. We are working on it, but like you, I may need to go back to therapy for a bit (for both of our sakes). We just started him on acupuncture & I think that is going to help Thanks for a whole video on Cooper ;->

My Female Dottie had goggles and she hated them. If I left them out she would destroy them. She would occasionally ride with me on my motorcycle so she needed them and she had eye issues. She was my best swimmer and did great tricks. I hope your just using that many treats in the video as a training example lol. Anyways absolutely precious!!

Getting off lead is hard, but he's welcome almost anywhere so he gets out and lots of activities/socialization

Bostons do prefer their people. They are not aggressive or anything and as a puppy they love everyone but I think you will find as he gets older he will be fairly nonchalant about strangers and completely fixated on you.

How much did you get him for?

she's 13 months today

Does he have regular meal times in addition to the treats for training?

His meals are always used as training, and then I make him wait for the last bit in his bowl. So meal times are the big training sessions, with smaller ones throughout the day whenever I'm mindful enough to do them 😊
