Hello everyone! My name is Jennifer and I have two male Boston terriers. Bruin is 2.5 years only and Larry is going to be 1 next month! I joined this forum so I could get some advice on raising these little guys. I’ll be posting another thread soon to explain more. Thanks in advance!
Hi Jennifer What a lovely picture of your “ boys “ I’m looking forward to hearing all about them Philippa
To understand you’d at least need to be from the US and a sports fan, and realistically a hockey fan. Boston Terrier.. Bruins is the name of the professional ice hockey team from Boston... Larry is I’m guessing for Larry Bird, a hall of fame NBA basketball ball player who played for the Boston Celtics... My comment “no Bobby” is referring to Bobby Orr, one of the greatest (I’d say the greatest) Defensemen in the history of the NHL (National hockey League) who played for the Boston Bruins and changed the way his position played the game. He was my favorite player as a child. I grew up in Massachusetts, and the city of Boston is in Massachusetts. I still play ice hockey at 53 years old and proudly wear his #4 on my jersey!! Larry over Bobby, I’m just shaking my head.... Boston University’s sports teams are the terriers
I left Massachusetts almost 31 years ago but please tell your husband that he picked the wrong hall of famer.... lol I don’t miss the cold or the snow but I do miss (a tiny bit) the leaves turning colors. A long long time ago I had a cat named Autumn One of my dogs is named after my Beer League ice hockey team
Hah, thank you for taking the time to explain. I take my hat off to ice hockey players, I tried ice skating a couple of times....slip, slide, wobble and I’m down. I used to love the music they played as everyone else scated. I value my wrists these days, so, I won’t be trying it again !
I left my skates [regular ice skates and also my ice-hockey skates] hanging on hooks on the wall of the dogs' room when I left England. I wonder what the people who moved into our house did with them.
