First, with the name.... we have always said we would get a dog one day and name HIM, Maverick Nasty Moore after his Dad, KeeNasty. But.... when we determined we would be getting a little girl puppy, I couldn't possibly name this little one "Nasty"... so we just went with Maverick Moore. Maverick does seem like boy name, but I didn't care.... we figured it could work either way. Now, why Maverick? HELLO!!!!!! We are huge fans of the Dallas Mavericks, enough said!
So the breed - why we picked the Boston Terrier? Read this blog post for those answers - B is for Boston Terrier
Color - most Boston Terriers are black, brindle or seal. Little Maverick is none of these colors. She is considered a RED Boston Terrier. Red head, just like her Momma! Lol.... Keeton is in trouble! Red Bostons are said to have some health problems since they are not the typical color, but I have asked 2 vets about that and neither had heard such a thing. We chose the light brownish color b/c we have lots of brown in our house, the tile, couches, etc. Bostons shed minimally, but just in case we don't want hair to show up everywhere.
Breeder - I looked for a Boston Terrier for a long time, felt like a really long time! Originally, we were going to go adopt a dog, but I never could find the right dog. Eventually (after a month) and a couple of heart breaks, we just decided to go through a breeder. I found Maverick through Puppyfinder.com. Some things you should def. consider and ask when you go through a breeder - Questions to Ask Breeders. You just never know with breeders and what they tell you, etc. I was SUPER PARANOID!!!!!!
OK.... so on to the fun stuff! Here are some sweet pics of our little Maverick! Enjoy!
