Our Story
Raising Bostons the Right Way
A family kennel with a commitment to the health, temperament, and beauty of the Boston Terrier breed.
How It All Began
Home is Where the Heart of Our Kennel Is
Graylady’s Bostons began as a love story — a family who fell head-over-heels for the wit, warmth, and style of the Boston Terrier. What started with one dog quickly became a calling: to breed Bostons that were not only beautiful in the ring, but healthy, balanced, and genuinely joyful to live with.
We are a small, home-based kennel. Our dogs sleep indoors, share our sofas, and grow up surrounded by family life. We believe this early socialisation is the invisible ingredient that makes our puppies exceptional — confident, adaptable, and deeply connected to people.
Over the years, we’ve taken our dogs into the confirmation ring at home and across Europe, building a reputation for producing Bostons that turn heads for all the right reasons.
Three Cornerstones of the Graylady Standard
Everything we do comes back to these core commitments.
Health Above All
Every dog in our programme undergoes extensive health testing — CAER eye exams, cardiac evaluations, patella checks, and more. We only breed dogs with clear, passing results. No exceptions.
Confirmed Excellence
We show in the confirmation ring because structure matters. Well-built dogs live longer, move better, and breathe easier. Our ring successes at home and throughout Europe are proof of our standard.
Raised in a Home
From birth to placement, every Graylady puppy is raised in our family home. They know the sounds of a household, the gentle hands of children, and the love of a warm lap.
What Sets Us Apart
The Graylady Difference
In a world of quick-turnaround breeding, we take a different path — deliberate, thoughtful, and always in the best interest of the breed.
Pedigree-Based Pairing
Every match is selected only after thorough pedigree research, ensuring genetic diversity and consistency of type across generations.
Lifetime Breeder Support
Our relationship with puppy owners doesn’t end at the gate. We remain a resource for health, training, and breed knowledge for the life of your dog.
European Show Circuit
We compete internationally, which keeps our breeding standard sharp and our knowledge of the global gene pool current and informed.
Puppy Matching Process
We get to know every prospective family before placing a puppy. The right match — in temperament and lifestyle — is as important as any health test.
