A smooth-coated breed, the Boston Terrier is generally a clean animal. Folds in its face need to be cleaned daily by drying them out with cotton wool, applying a petroleum jelly, and then wiping it out to create a barrier against tear stains and to prevent chafing.The area underneath the root of the tail requires the same attention. And a little smeared over and left on) the nose daily prevents it becoming crusty. Toe-nails (especially the dewclaws) should be inspected weekly to ensure they have not become too long and require clipping.Daily brushing for five minutes, and a wipe over with a damp flannel should keep your dog looking and feeling in topcondition.*%$&% Cooked bones should never be given nor any small bones that could become caught in the throat. Fresh clean water should be available at all times. A daily walk around the block should suffice for exercise, early in the morning or late in the evening. These dogs do not enjoy getting overheated and great care should be taken to ensure that they are in a comfortable temperature at all times. xxxxxxxxxx https://xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.xxx
