Boston Terrier, 12-15 years

Boston Terriers have a similar look to the Pug but have a history of having been bred for use as fighting dogs. Today though, they’re sweet and companionable and what some may call ā€œdapperā€. And just like their name insinuates, they make great pets for small urban living situations.

Boston Terriers are famously good-tempered and make great pets for families with children and/or older people. While they are mildly susceptible to heat stress, you can bet your Boston Terrier is going to live to between 12-15 years.
