Boston Terrier
About Phoenix
Phoenix is a classic old school looking boston terrier that has the big wide chest and shoulders. This comes from her imported European bloodlines. She has produced pups that have that sturdy look to them and I love that. She is a bit on the busy side but is super smart and easy to train. She just picks up anything very quickly and is not afraid of change . She weighs 23lbs . Her pups however seem to end up smaller than her favoring her maternal family tree.
