Fresh Food for Boston Terriers

Appropriately nicknamed the American Gentleman, Boston terriers are intelligent, lively dogs who light up any room they walk into. Originally bred in the mid-19th century for ratting and fighting, Bostons are now companion dogs through and through, thanks to their goofy, extremely friendly personalities.

These brachycephalic (short-snouted) breeds aren’t very active and shouldn’t spend too much time outside, especially in hot weather, but they do require quite a bit of mental stimulation thanks to their intelligence.

Why fresh is best for your Boston Terriers

Highly processed kibble can contribute to many issues that can compromise your Boston Terriers’s health. Recipes from The Farmer’s Dog are made with fresh, human-grade ingredients, steamed to retain nutrients, and pre-portioned to help maintain weight.

Protect joints and mobility

Bostons are prone to joint issues, including hip dysplasia and other mobility challenges that can be exacerbated by weight gain. Maintaining a lean body condition can help. And fresh food from The Farmer’s Dog contains Omega-3 fatty acids, proven to reduce inflammation and improve arthritis. Even if kibble contains these healthy fats, they can go rancid sitting on the shelf for long periods. Rancid fats don’t deliver the intended health benefits, and in fact can contribute to inflammation. Fresh food delivers these powerful nutrients intact in the best dog food for boston terriers.

Promote better digestion (and poops)

A fresh diet provides human-grade, highly digestible protein, which contributes to many facets of your Boston’s health. It supports optimal muscle growth and maintenance and a strong heart. Another hallmark of a digestible diet is what we call “high quality poops.” Research shows that a digestible, bioavailable diet affects the quality and quantity of your dog’s poop—making it less voluminous, and less stinky than their poop on a kibble diet.

Dial up dental health (and fresh breath!)

For dogs like Boston terriers prone to dental disease, don’t look to a dried pellet to clean teeth. Kibble is an ultra-processed food—it sticks to teeth, contributing to plaque, and it can contain substances that actually fuel inflammation in the tissues of the body, including the mouth. Eating for dental health means eating for overall health. A fresh, whole-food diet promotes a healthier immune system, which helps ward off dental infections—and it doesn’t stick to teeth. Fresh food also means fresher Boston kisses and slobbers!

If you’re looking for pre-portioned, healthy meals, tailored to your Boston terrier’s age, size, activity level, and weight, consider signing up for a fresh food plan. A plan tailored to your loyal goofball will take the guesswork out of portion management, and ensure you’re providing all the necessary nutrients, in the right balance.

What customers are saying about fresh dog food

“Obi had terrible allergies. We tried everything. After switching to The Farmer’s Dog he doesn’t have one single hot spot, and he doesn’t lick his paws chronically anymore. He also has a bunch of energy.”

“As soon as we brought The Farmer’s Dog home, her skin was better, she was more active (and high quality poops!). If I can invest in her health and be proactive I think it’s worth it.”
