Hugo Mikhail Bustani | 6 year old Boston Terrier | NYC Pet Photography

Hugo is a 6 year old Boston Terrier. He is absolutely adorable. He is also probably the best trained dog that I have met.

His owners, Diogo and Alice Bustani, must have spent an enormous amount of time training him and also learning to understand him – and it definitely paid off.

One of my favorite tricks is when on command “Balance,” Hugo holds a treat on his forehead or his nose, and patiently waits for the “OK” command to flip it into the air and eat it !!!  I’ve seen this done before but only by a dolphin :).

Even more impressive is a little bell that hangs close to the floor, next to the door in their apartment –  Hugo rings the bell to tell his owners that he needs to go out! Being an owner of a 10 year old boxer I am absolutely floored that Hugo does not abuse this little bell… In my house that experiment would lead to non-stop ringing :).

Balance…..

OK !!!….

I am super excited that this photo was taken by my wife Natalia who is learning photography 🙂 This is her first, but definitely not the last, contribution to this blog !!!!
