Boston Terrier Dogs Available for Adoption in Normal, Illinois

Bugs is a 3-year-old Boston Terrier weighing in at a compact 17 pounds, and he’s equal parts charm, energy, and goofy determination. He’s a happy, friendly little guy who loves being near his people, whether that means following you from room to room, curling up in your lap, or hopping in the car for your next adventure. He’s crate trained, rides well in the car, and settles in nicely at home, often choosing his own cozy spot to relax.

Bugs is an active boy who would love a home that can keep up with him. He enjoys long walks, playtime, and any opportunity to stretch his legs. He’ll need a securely fenced yard where he can safely run and burn off energy, plus he won't potty on leash. Bugs has a strong instinct to chase anything that scampers by. Squirrels and rabbits beware, Bugs is on the case.

He can live with calm, confident dogs that are willing to ignore him while he adjusts. However, Bugs comes in a little strong when meeting new animal friends, but he settles in quickly once he realizes everything is okay. He enjoys playing, though he may need some gentle guidance on his manners as he gets excited. He is currently living with dog-savvy cats and, after some initial curiosity and enthusiasm, has learned to coexist.

On leash, Bugs is still polishing his skills. He can pull when something catches his attention, but when things are calm, he’s capable of walking nicely. Bugs already knows "sit." He’s a smart boy who will benefit from continued structure and guidance.

He hasn’t been around children yet, but based on his personality, he may do well with respectful kids. Because he’s an energetic and sometimes enthusiastic greeter, supervision and continued training will help set him up for success.

Bugs would thrive in a home with experienced dog owners who understand how to provide structure, exercise, and positive guidance. In return, you’ll get a loyal, entertaining, and affectionate companion who will keep you smiling every single day. His minimum adoption fee is $400 plus a $15 fee, if 4 months or older, for rabies registration for McLean County residents.

He has been neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, heartworm checked, dewormed, and is on flea and heartworm preventatives.
