Is there anyone out there with a BT? I would appreciate some insite on
the pros and cons of getting another dog, and would like to get the
same breed! Does anyone have coments--good OR bad on this subject?
Will 2 females get along in the same area, or will one try to dominate
the other!

i don't have one, but with any terrier or potentially animal aggressive
breed, two females is usually a recipe for disaster. i'd recommend one of
each sex, myself.
remember that Boston Terriers were originally a fighting breed, individual
dogs may still have some of that in their blood.

they're a cool breed, i love their tough-but-playful attitude!

Thank you Kelly! I never thought of 2 females fighting for territory
or anything else. I mostly thought of a male dog "marking" his
territory especially if there is a female around the house! I now have
a Boston 1 1/2 year old (female) and a Pekingese who is 12 years old.
Both get along fine. The Pekingese is very territorial with her food,
water, etc... I really haven't seen this as much in my Boston. She is
very layed back--thank God!
