Katbird Bostons
- Kentucky
Meet the breeder
I'm Kathryn G., the breeder behind Katbird Bostons located in Kentucky. My name is Kathryn Graves. I have been breeding and competing with Boston Terriers since 1988. My goal has always been to produce excellent dogs that conform to type and have the temperament typical of the Boston Terrier. My program has produced numerous show ring and performance event winners. But I am equally proud of all the Bostons that have been placed in loving homes as companions.
