According to the American Kennel Club, the ancestry of most modern Boston terriers can be traced back to a dog in Boston, Massachusetts. Around 1870, William O'Brien, a resident of Boston, sold an imported English bulldog named Judge to Robert C. This dog, named Hooper's Judge, was paired with a white English terrier named Kate, owned by Edward Burnett. An offspring of Judge and Kate, Wells 'Eph, raised with a female named Kate de Tobin.
These four dogs are considered the basic basis for the Boston terrier that we know today. As one of the few breeds to come from the United States, the Boston Terrier is quite an exciting canine. Named after the city of Boston in Massachusetts, this breed has a long history. As is the well-known story, the Boston Terrier is a mix between the breeds of the White English Terrier and the Bulldog.
The Old English Terrier is extinct, while the Bulldogs are still around. The first Boston Terrier mix was made in Liverpool in the late 1860s. This new cross was called Judge, and it was made to be a fighting canine. The judge soon found his way to Boston after his property had changed hands a few times.
By 1889, the breed had become so popular that 30 pimps of this new breed formed a new club. The club was called The American Bull Terrier Club, since the bostons were known at that time as Bull Terriers. The name of the club soon met with protests from Bulldogs and Bull Terriers fans. This led to the American Bull Terrier Club being renamed Boston Terrier Club Of America.
In 1893, the Boston Terrier Club Of America was recognized by the American Kennel Club as its first non-sporting breed, the first American breed and the 48th breed to be allowed in the AKC.
