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.

We add licensed breeders from councils' public registers. Search for your kennel name; if it is listed you can claim it and edit everything.
Using a Boston Terrier stud dog
Boston Terrier stud dogs
Stud owners on this page offer Boston Terrier males for mating with suitable bitches. Before you book, ask for evidence of the tests the RKC lists for the breed: a current BVA/KC/ISDS eye certificate, an HC-HSF4 DNA result and a Respiratory Function Grade, which the RKC recognised for Bostons in August 2026. Check his RKC registration and watch him move, paying attention to his tail and rear action, the two areas Breed Watch highlights for this breed. Run the proposed pairing through the RKC's inbreeding coefficient calculator and aim for a figure at or below the breed average, which the RKC shows each time you use its calculators. Agree the stud fee, any return-service terms and the paperwork you will receive in writing before the mating. Looking for a litter instead? See Boston Terrier puppies.
Health tests for a Boston Terrier stud
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.
