Deisign Boston Terriers
ABOUT US
“Dogs are not our whole life, but they make our lives whole.” Roger Caras
I came to live with my first Boston in 1996 and have been in love with this intelligent and devoted breed ever since. I am dedicated to the health and future of the Boston Terrier breed and believe in upholding the AKC breed standard. Our Dogs are raised as naturally as possible; this includes lots of fresh air and outdoor exercise on our property, minimal vaccines, and a fresh whole-foods diet. Health, temperament, and beauty are our primary goals when we consider a potential breeding. This is not a business, nor do we strive to be a prolific kennel based on quantity of puppies or titles produced. We are first and foremost devoted fanciers of these fabulous dogs.
Deide owns a k9 spa and is a fine artist who enjoys painting in oils. She started out training in the obedience ring at age 12, and later became interested in conformation after her beloved Saluki "Middy" placed in the national specialty in 1989. Matt is a mechanical engineer and program coordinator; he has two masters degrees in both mechanical engineering and business administration. Matt loves the Doberman breed and can usually be found with a 90 lb Dobe on his lap when he isn't busy spoiling the Bostons. He was raised in Detroit where he grew up working in his grandparents' chain of pet stores - this helped foster his love of dogs from an early age.
We are privileged to share our lives with these magnificent creatures; they take part in our daily activities and are an integral part of our family. Not only are they wonderfully engaging, they are our friends and companions. Many thanks to Dr. Bob and Jill for providing us with a fabulous foundation for the dogs we are currently working with, and to Jeannie Thomason for her kind nature and wonderful guidance.
The purpose of this site is to provide information on our dogs along with resources for other Boston Terrier owners. We only breed the Bostons when we are looking to produce out next show prospect, so pet puppies are available on a very limited basis. Doberman puppies are occasionally available to exceptional pet homes. Any information regarding an upcoming litter is posted here.
Thanks, Deide and Matt
