Meet Meko, A Sorta Long-Haired Boston Terrier
Here at iBostonTerrier.com, we sure do love to see some of the rare and elusive long-haired Boston Terriers! The few times we’ve posted some of these beautiful dogs on the site, it always gets such a reaction. Earlier this year, we met Blackie, a long-haired Boston Terrier that everyone fell in love with. Now, we meet Meko.
“Meko just celebrated his 5th birthday on July 14th 2014. I purchased him as a young one from a gentlemen in Iowa who said he was different well he is that’s for sure. We now reside In Arizona He loves to play in the water and play with his personal kitty cat. He enjoys being a spaz and getting love from anyone and everyone who will give it to him. This is his glamour shot and his fuzzy moment before his hair cut. He is one of those elusive fuzzy Boston’s. He is my rock, My boy, My best friend he goes everywhere with me. Just thought I would share my long haired buddies story.”
How beautiful is this boy?!
He is lovely and those nice fuzzy ears make me smile. He is the first I have seen like this, very sweet face!!
Way cute
You should bring him to our meetups in Phoenix 🙂
Beautiful! Love that face!
SO CUTE WHERE IN AZ IS HIS HOME
While long haired Boston Terriers are cute, they are not purebred. None if the documented breeds used to create the Boston Terrier were long haired. There is no way they can recessively carry the gene for long hair and be purebred. In most instances they are outcrossed, or mixed, with Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, Shelties, Australian Sheperds, or even long haired Chihuahuas. Me ki and Blackie are ultra adorable, but purebred they are not.
Here is a detailed article that talks about long hair Boston Terriers at length (no pun intended)
