If you have been comparing the size of your Boston Terrier to that of its female counterpart, you may be wondering which is the larger of the two sexes. Here’s what you need to know about the difference in size.
Depending on the breed you have, male or female Boston Terriers will weigh anywhere from 15 to 30 pounds. Female Boston Terriers will weigh up to thirty pounds, and males weigh up to eighteen pounds.
Boston Terrier Male Vs Female Size
Although Boston Terriers are both sweet and loving, they are quite different
Despite their similar size, male Boston Terriers are taller and heavier than their female counterparts. They stand about 17 inches tall and weigh 10 to 25 pounds.
A male Boston Terrier’s body type is more muscular than that of its female counterpart, making it more athletic and active. As a result, male Boston Terriers can develop arthritis.
Boston Terriers can have health problems, which can include hip dysplasia and deafness
Male Boston Terriers are more likely to suffer from hip dysplasia, which causes the knee to slip out of the femoral groove when they are extended.
C-sections are a common way to deliver Boston Terriers. Because of this, it is important to get regular exams to check the health of both the mother and pups.
In general, male Boston Terriers are more playful, allowing them to play with children all day long. Female Boston Terriers are less hyper and generally get along well with children.
However, female Boston Terriers are more social with children and can be a better choice for families with children.
They also get along well with other dogs and are generally better-behaved with kids. However, male Boston Terriers may be too energetic for small children. They can be trained to behave well with infants.
Despite their small size, Boston Terriers are lively, energetic, and playful
They are a perfect playmate for kids. Although they do not show aggression, male Boston Terriers can be a little more rambunctious to match the energy level of kids.
Male Boston Terriers are also more clingy and affectionate than females, so be careful when playing with small children.
