The Negotiation: Boston Terrier vs. French Bulldog

A new bed was bought for Cookie our Boston, but her little bro Dobby the Frenchie planted himself in there and refused to move. So here’s Cookie trying to talk Dobby out of it.

That Boston Terrier has got to be the most intelligent dog I’ve ever seen. It’s one thing to preform a a trick for a reward, but to see a dog negotiate like that in such a humanistic way with another of it’s own kind is just amazing.

I love this video. I have a Boston and a Frenchie as well. great dogs, and my frenchie is just as stubborn as yours. won’t listen to or do what the boston wants at all! ha ha

@junmae808 i have 2 french bulldogs at the moment, they are awesome, dont hurry about that, they respect u alot. sometimes they may be agressive to each other but the fight wont go very far, maxim happens its a hear bleeding ,etc but thats rare, they wont do anything to persons

VERY CUTE, I have 2 bostons myself. But they just sleep in my bed..so need to fight over it

I suppose any dog can be aggressive and scary but so far the only kind of hostile behaviour i have seen from a frenchie is when another dog is taking attention time away from themselves. Even then it wasent really anything serious

BUT i have never seen a frenchie from a fight either, My mother has a 85 pound german shepherd and my 28 pound frenchie will fight him until you pull them apart (Always insigated by the shepherd though)

can french bulldogs be aggressive and scary like pitbulls or full breed bulldogs? They look like awesome dogs

where do you get a dog bed? I guess I’m years out of the times, I had a boston when I lived with my parents then bought a house, now planning on getting another boston, didn’t think it was fair to take him away from 30 acres he’d been used to for 5 years, any helpwould be greatly appreciated

Cute vid with captions!

Great strategy on the Boston’s part using the bone like that!

Great video. Great putting the dialogues there. I just saw it after I posted a couple of videos myself (where I put a voice to one of my dogs). If you want you can find them searching for: Boston Terrier Charlie episode.

This is a very cute video, and your dogs are adorable and really smart – one is smart to think of a trick, the other smart to not fall for it. But wasn’t the bed large enough for both of them to sleep side by side? My Boston shares the house with two cats (one of which is her buddy, and one acts aloof and unapproachable), and they often snuggle together with the friendly cat.

Bostons are really smart. I had Bostons growing up. Love how Cookie throws down the bone – like she knows this is just not working! Great vid!
