Boston Terrier puppies and dogs in Tottenham, Ontario

Austin is an independent little guy! He enjoys playing ball, exploring the grass and going for long walks. He will be sure to love you forever if you give him lots of butt scratches. Austin came from a home where kids did not respect his space, therefore he can bite when he is resource guarding. He has been doing amazing with us but will need a home that is comfortable working through this and also allowing Austin to have lots of quiet time and a safe place. Ideally, Austin would do well in a quiet household with only adults.

This is something she has likely had her whole life. Left Eye: Moxi is fully blind in her left eye due to a congenital malformation. If the eye ever becomes painful, surgical removal (enucleation) may be recommended, but this is not currently needed. Right Eye: Her right eye has vision. It does have some corneal pigmentation and mild cloudiness, likely related to lower tear production and her congenital eye differences. Because of this, her right eye may be at risk for developing secondary glaucoma later in life, so monitoring is important. Current Treatment & Care Medication: Optimmune immunomodulatory eye drops for the corneal pigmentation in a puppy of this age. Once daily Optixcare lubricant 2–3 times daily in both eyes to protect and moisturize. ?? Final Notes Moxi is an incredibly bright, joyful puppy who loves people and thrives with appropriate engagement. With the right guidance, boundaries, and enrichment, she will grow into an amazing lifelong companion.
