Is it free to advertise here?

Yes. A breeder profile and your litter and stud dog adverts are free. Premium profiles, featured placement and sponsored articles are optional paid extras; see pricing.

Do I need a licence to advertise puppies?

In England you need a dog breeding licence from your council if you breed three or more litters in 12 months or breed and sell dogs as a business, and Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland have their own schemes. Licensed breeders show their licence number and issuing council on every advert. Puppies must be at least eight weeks old before they go to new homes.

Is my listing already here?

We add licensed breeders from councils' public registers. Search for your kennel name; if it is listed you can claim it and edit everything.

Buying a Boston Terrier puppy

Boston Terrier puppies for sale

This page brings together Boston Terrier litters advertised by breeders listed on CanineBreeder. Each advert links to the breeder's profile, where you can see their location, website and social media before you get in touch. Badges on a profile summarise documents the breeder has supplied and show the date we checked them; how we verify explains what they do and do not cover. Before paying a deposit, ask for the parents' eye examination results, their HC-HSF4 cataract DNA results and, now that the RKC recognises the scheme for the breed, any Respiratory Function Grades. Visit the litter where it was raised and meet the mother. If there are no Boston litters near you today, browse all puppies for sale, look at Boston Terrier stud dogs to see who is planning matings, or try the RKC's Find a Puppy service.

Health tests to ask about

Boston Terrier health and testing

The Boston Terrier is in Breed Watch Category 2. The RKC asks judges to watch for two points in this breed: a missing, screw, inverted or tight tail, and faulty hind construction or poor movement behind.

As a flat-faced breed, the Boston is one of the breeds covered by the Respiratory Function Grading (RFG) scheme, which the RKC runs with the University of Cambridge. A trained vet listens to the dog's breathing at rest and again after three minutes of brisk exercise, then gives a grade from 0 (no respiratory signs) to 3 (severe signs). Dogs can be assessed from 12 months of age. The RKC recognised the test for Boston Terriers in August 2026 and says it will be added to its Health Standard and Find a Puppy from January 2027.

The Boston Terrier Club's health page covers juvenile cataract and patellar luxation (slipping kneecaps), and the club runs eye testing at its annual championship show.

Tests the RKC lists for the breed:

  • Good practice: eye examination under the BVA/KC/ISDS Eye Scheme
  • Best practice: DNA test for hereditary cataract (HC-HSF4)
  • Best practice (recognised August 2026): breathing assessment for brachycephalic obstructive airway syndrome (BOAS) under the KC Respiratory Function Grading scheme

Health testing reduces risk but cannot guarantee a healthy puppy. You can look up a registered dog's results on the RKC Health Test Results Finder.
