The Bostchon is a cross between the Boston Terrier and the Bichon Frise, two small dogs valued for their companionship and easygoing natures.
The Bichon Frise, originating from the Mediterranean region, was once known as a sailor's dog, not for its swimming prowess, but for the cheerfulness and outgoing personality that made it a favorite among ship-bound sailors. Small, usually white, with a curly coat and black nose and eyes, the Bichon bears some resemblance to the Maltese, another dog breed, but is descended from the Barbet and the Poodle.
The Boston Terrier is an American breed with fighting dogs and terrier types in its lineage. The Boston Terrier, however, has a personality far from that of a terrier's, and is more prone to be affectionate and playful, as any worthwhile pet and companion.
