I am a veterinarian and a Boston owner, and I love your information and channel. And life is better with a Boston. It is one of the breeds with the fewest medical concerns.
Thank you!
Three out of the four Boston's I had tilted their heads when I talked to them. My vet said this is the sign of an intelligent dog. I would like to think that this was the reason.
I luv the head tilt BT's make. it's really comical, endearing, and gives them personality no other dogs can do.
😊
It is like they are puzzled and trying to understand what is going on.
Hi! Our Boston tilts his head when we ask him a question starting with “Do..... “! it’s adorable!!!
My Boston tilts her head when I am talking to her, like she is listening. She also has eye to eye contact with me while doing this! As for hearing, open a piece of cheese, she is there even if in a deep sleep!
Chandler can be sound asleep in the front room and hear a wrapper quietly opened in the kitchen in the back. Especially wrappers on cheese slices.
My Boston tilts his head when I say specific things. For example, if I ask if he wants to go “bye bye” or for a “walk” or do you want a “treat”...he tilts his head. So, my conclusion is he tilts his head when he understands what I’m saying/asking. I know for sure because after I say those key words...he gets all excited and follows me around the house until we go where I said or he gets what he wants. He’s very smart. I love my bOy so much❤️
My 2 Bostons when you talk to them and they get excited they do the head tilt....it is so adorable or like You say "you want a treat" or "wanna go bye-bye" I absolutely LOVE it!!!
I am probably biased. But I think that Boston’s tilt their heads when they are trying to figure out some thing. They are very intelligent, right?
That sounds like a good enough reason to me
Yes they are very smart and VERY STUBBORN at the same time! 😂
I think my Boston tilted her head because, #1 she was really trying to comprehend and hear what we said, and #2, the excitement of what we're saying like, "Do you want to go for a walk, or bye bye in the car"?
My BT Henry knows quite a few words and names. I think he head tilts in anticipation of something good. He knows the names of his doggie friends and will tilt his head when he hears their names. He also does this with particular people such as my mother. He goes crazy when he hears me say "Grammy", the name all the grandkids call her. Henry also knows "Aunt Terry" and where she lives in our neighborhood.
I'm pretty sure my BT is a genius!😉
PS - I think they also know how darn cute they look with the head tilt, expressive face, and eyes and think they can get a treat! More evidence of their genius.😂
Thanks for sharing!
If I ask Buddy “where’s Daddy” he tilts hi head on the word “Daddy”! To me he recognizes the word Daddy and I have his attention!
We also refer to it as his “cryptonite” look because ur 100% powerless against it! It’s a Boston “super-power”!
yes when a boston gives you that look, resistance is futile ;-).
Waldo & Bruno tilt their heads because they are brilliant dogs who want to let me know I have their fullest attention and they are interested in everything I have to say - as well as the treat in my hand
Our Daisy is so cute when she’s doing the head tilt….
Well my short answer that I’ve always believed fits all that . They are trying to figure it out , hence hearing eyesight etc all comes into play . I can get all of mine to do . I just have always thought the head tilt was adorable ❤️
It’s usually when she hears an unusual sound. I do agree it might be to hear better too!
They are insuring whether they are understanding and or what could be something new to them as my Boston does this when he is being spoken to. And when others speak to him. And mostly when he is noticing something new from my voice or my non verbal communication that can be in conjunction with speech
I think they are so cute when they tilt their heads. Taz does it when I talk to him.
Agreed
I noticed that my Boston’s ears would occasionally move in different directions, at the same time, without him moving his head. They reminded me of radar signals which is probably basically what was happening.Each ear honing in on different sounds.☦️👩🏻🦳🐾
I have had five Boston terriers...... one at a time. 70 years ? I love your channel.
Regarding reverse sneezing...
All of mine experienced it
I learned that when I got close to their nose and blew my breath gentally they stopped immediately
Thank you 😊
Thanks for sharing! 😊
for my boston it is the case number four .. when he is told a promise of going outside or something that he likes, he will tilt his head to reassure that what he heard was right and kind of saying: "what? really?"
Our Boston xena gives a tilt when we talk to her and when we do high pitch sounds. And it's the cutest thing ever if I must say so. She's the best!!!!
😊
Yes, my Boston, Panda tilts her head when talking to her or she hears weird sounds, she looks right at you with eye contact too! I love it when she does it. It looks so cute!
😊
Great information: I never considered this behaviour in our BT.
You're welcome!
Looking forward to my Boston coming home, he’s barely 10 days old. We are anxious!!
#5 It's a cute look. I think they know they are.
I loveeee when my Moki does that. LOL She will tilt it back and forth to the right and left over and over whenever she hears a funny noise. Lol lol
😄
My Mackie tilt her head by saying ' What do you want' lol or the name of my friends and their dogs its very funny.
This is a very culturally specific example. Here in Taiwan the official language is Mandarin but there are two other Chinese languages spoken, Taiwanese (a variant Hokkien), and Hakka. Chandler hears Mandarin and but gets scolded in Taiwanese, and can snap to attention hearing Taiwanese spoken, even if it's not directed at her. We used to live in a Hakka speaking neighborhood and when the neighborhood grandmother in the park spoke Hakka to her she would always tilt her head after every sentence. I may be projecting a little, but it's true that Chandler rarely heard Hakka other than this situation and that she could distinguish between Mandarin and Taiwanese.
That is really interesting!
Head tilt right~ means
Seriously?
Head tilt left~ means
No really Seriously??
lol
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Scout tilts her head and makes great eye contact when I talk to her. She looks to be so sweet and intelligent. She hears me; she listens. She has also taught me that listening to me and hearing me does not mean she is obeying me. That look is a very sweet and intelligent "yeah, right mommy". 🤓😇
😊
In think my Boston, 19 month old Ruby Tuesday, prob tilts mostly cause she’s curious. I love to talk lol so I talk to her and shes always ears up, the little cutie lol. She’s 22 lbs, about 2lbs overweight the vet said... she’s a princess tho and likes to eat haha
She’s just the Center of attention in my house! Has us all tending to her haha
😍
My Bean, her most head tilting is when we say "want to go to bed?"
Aww!
My 2 month old Boston Terrier Sparkle tilts her head when i sing to her or talk for her🤣♥️
These dogs are ridiculously intelligent. Ours knows how to spell 'B-O-N-E'.
And I always thought it was because she was trying to understand me.
That could be a reason
That is what I always thought too
My girls will tilt their heads when they hear a weird sound, so I will make one when I’m trying to get a head tilt photo. They look right at me.
Donny, did you stop making new videos? I haven’t seen anything new in a while.
I think my Vader tilt's his head because he's trying to understand me. It's always when I have long talks with him. So I'm assuming he is thinking, trying to hear me better or combination of those two.
I think Bella is thinking sometimes too
My Boston tilts her head when I am talking to her. I think she is thinking about what I am saying. It's cute when Rosie does it.
😊
Donny, did you stop making new videos? Haven’t seen anything new in a while.
I dont think I've really noticed my boston tilting her head or maybe I'm just not really paying attention she could be. Well probably she does give me the side eye tilt so I guess she does. XD
Do some boston terriers have tails?
Yes it is possible...here is an article on my website about Boston Terrier Tails...www.bostonterriersociety.com/boston-terrier-tail/
Chandler is very sensitive to bells and things that ring. If we're watching a movie or tv show with an extended ring, she will tilt her head until it stops. Sometimes she will tilt her head one way then quickly tilt it the other way if the ringing persists. It's really funny.
😊
two dislikes? they were on mobile with their phones upside down lol :P
😄
Cellie and Darby tilt their heads when I talk to them as if they are really listening to what you are saying. Most of the time, if you ask them if they want to go bye bye, they stop whatever they are doing and look you in the eyes and tilt their heads.
lol
My bella will tilt when she hear someone walking outside inside park you may know washington dc have inside park lot anyway we live the building that have inside park she and i would sit down in the step she would tilt if she hear someone walking since she know i am deaf bella and i are very much closer together even sleep with me she would bark to wake me if someone out bedroom door we live with my daughter and her 2 boys❤️❤️❤️
It’s really so they can hear better according to Dog Whisperer. 😄
😮
My Brad does this a lot, but only when triggered 😂 He is puzzled and trying to understand.
I think we over think these traits, there is evidence to support that humans domesticated dogs 40,000 years ago in a single event ... it would seem to me that the most likely reason dog's tilt there heads when we talk to them or make some unnatural noise is because WE find it cute ... its highly likely that a dog and its offspring that had this odd personality quirk 40,000 years got bread and adopted by early humans more then dogs that lacked this trait.
😮
Gnocchi tilts her head when she is really concentrating on what I am saying maintaining eye contact the entire time as well.
so funny 😄
My prudence does it all the time lol
Mine seems to tilt when I speak in short sentences and smiles
😊
When I say "What do you want?" my two tilt their heads.
😊
Noel only tilts her head when I talk to her at times.
😊
But only when I talk to her!
