Marcia was an active member of the Boston Terrier Club of Detroit. She always brought her beloved Bostons to the shows and took great delight in showing them. Always a gracious presence in the ring and out. We will miss her smile that could light up the room. We will miss our many lovely chats with her at shows or on the phone. It is a great comfort to know that she is at the Rainbow Bridge loving all of the Bostons that went there before her. Marcia will be missed by all of her friends in the Boston Terrier world.

“The American Gentleman”
Boston Terriers are sometimes called the “The American Gentleman" because of their calm disposition and formal black and white "tuxedo“ markings, the Boston Terriers are one of America's native breeds. A lively, intelligent, smooth-coated and compactly built dog with short tail, the Boston Terrier comes in three sizes: under 15lb, 15lb to under 20lb, and 20lb to under 25lb. The Boston Terrier is a very friendly dog with an excellent disposition, is highly trainable, and good with children. The Boston Terrier is a member of the non-sporting group and was first registered by the AKC in 1893.

Commitment How Did You Spend Your Last 10,000 Hours?
I recently read a book called “Outliers: The Story of Success” written by Malcolm Gladwell. The book attempts to answer the question of why some people succeed and others never reach their potential. I am sure many of you have read the book or have heard about it. There is a concept in the book that resonated with me – the 10,000 hours rule. Gladwell’s premise is that to excel in any endeavor requires an investment of 10,000 hours of effort. I think it is a valid premise and I believe that it applies to just about everything we do in this world, and of course, to the sport of dogs.
I think back to when we first got
