Hi Rhonda! Im so glad that you are using the website for questions. It may help another family who has the same questions! Which sex is easier...well, they are both really easy. Bostons are so very easy to take care of. Little to no shedding, easy to train, easy to love. The only difference that I have noticed between the two sexes is that 1. The male Boston loves to protect his property. Yard, house, or specific perimeter borders. 2. The female tends to protect their family from the hip. They may not let anyone threatening get close to you. Our Sir Glock loves to run the yard and watch to make sure that no one enters the yard; whereas, our females jump in our laps when strangers come to the home. Hopefully, families can comment if they have any more insight to the difference between a male and a female. I hope this helps Miss Rhonda!
