So this is my almost 4 year old Boston Terrier named "Oscar".

His birthday is October 14th, 2007..

He weighs about 28lbs and is ALL muscle since I walk him 1-2 times a day and also play fetch with him almost every day..

Oscar loves to eat people food, and whatever we cook for dinner, he get's his own little plate :)



Shitty laptop webcam quality, will upload better pictures tomarrow!

I love this little dude so so so much!

I dont want to tell you how to raise your pet but id advise taking him off the human food diet, it doesnt have all the nutrients that dogs need to stay health as well as for dental reasons.

[The ideal weight for the Boston Terrier is 12 to 18 lbs. Disqualify: Any dog weighing over 25 lbs.]


Taken from the Boston terrier standard.

28 lbs is huge for a boston, and yes the picture quality is crap, but he looks overweight.
and as jurikeh said, people food is not a good diet for a dog, you may think you are being nice, but really you are neglecting his proper nutrition needs.

That being said; Bostons are some of my favorite small dogs. I handled a few several years back, great character.
I bet he snores quite well too :)

He's not too much overweight, mostly muscle, I'll throw a better quality picture of him up when I get the chance. He eats his regular Purina food but also eats small portions of meat from whatever dinner that we cook.I really appreciate all of your concerns and thank you for the advice, gonna cut back on the table food until I weigh him again lol!
