Original pet art by artist Patti Meador-specializing in Boston Terriers and Boxers
Welcome to Bostons and Boxers by Design! My husband Roger and I have had Boxers for 25+ years, but after the passing of a dear friend (Taterdog, we still miss you) we decided to try something on a smaller scale, which began my love affair with the Boston Terrier breed! Shortly after the arrival of our new addition (Buster, the model for most of my Boston Terrier art work), a sudden chronic condition left me unable to work outside the home. The gift of a new digital camera and the time to take pictures and learn photo manipulation...well, a monster was created! This website, and our Cafepress shop, art.com offerings, etc. are a real labor of love for me. Often my 'boys' are my reason for getting out of bed in the morning, and it is my hope to share even a small portion of the joy these guys (can't bring myself to call them dogs!) bring into my life. We have a lot to offer here, so be sure and check out the rest of the site. We offer free pet art email postcards, free Boston Terrier and Boxer art wallpaper of the month (it's also a desktop calendar!), fun videos of Buster and Buddy doing silly things, we even offer a photo gallery (new and improved!) where you can upload photos of YOUR pets for all our visitors to see!
It is our hope that you will have FUN here. , and return often. We try to add content frequently and we're always looking for new and exciting things to offer our 'fans'. To those that have been with us from the beginning, God Bless you! If you're new to the site, enjoy!
Questions and feedback always welcome. You may sign the guestbook, or send me a private email . I always enjoy hearing from you!
Due to the rapid deterioration of my health, I am regrettably unable to do custom portraits at this time. If things improve (failed back surgery in June), I'll post a notice here.
I am a chronic pain suffer (degenerative disk disease, arthritis in my spine, and I've had soon to be 3 spinal fusion surgeries) and have created a simple design referencing that Chronic Pain
*A note about Cafepress: I do NOT 'own' this shop. In other words, we are not a huge company with warehouses full of t shirts, coasters, mousepads and things. 'We' are.... well, basically little old me, and my two 'boys' Buster and Buddy! Cafepress is a very large company to which I pay a fee for my storefront. I maintain the shop, it's appearance, and provide all of the artwork and designs. If an item sells with my artwork on it (purchased from my 'shop') then I make a small commission on the sale, and 10% of those commissions are donated monthly to Boston Terrier and Boxer rescue. The merchandise itself is manufactured, shipped and billed by Cafepress. I have ordered things from my own shop (yes...I must buy my products just like everyone else!) and I have found their quality to be exceptional! I do have control over the artwork, it's placement, etc....I can customize any part of that for you. I do not have control over the merchandise itself... If you have any questions, or would like to know more about setting up your own Cafepress shop, feel free to email me.
