Bull Terrier Breed Information

The Bull Terrier is a stout and muscular dog with a well-proportioned, thick-set body. Their shoulders are brawny, their body is round, and their tails are carried horizontally. The breed's most distinctive feature is their long head that is flat at the top and slopes down to the nose at an even angle. They have no stop and their amond-shaped eyes are small, dark in colour, and closely set. They have a short- haired coat that exists in a number of colours including black, fawn, brindle, red, pure white, and tri-colour.

The Bull Terrier was initially utilized as a gladiator and fighting dog, but since that time, the breed has become much gentler and more affectionate. If threatened, they may react, but this breed is no longer used as a guard dog.

They are courageous and feisty, but they aren't aggressive towards people. They love affection and require a great deal of companionship and supervision. These Terriers are loyal and obedient, and they make excellent family pets if they are properly socialized and trained. While they love children, they may be too energetic for small children. These dogs can be extremely aggressive towards other dogs, and they don't live well with other pets.

Bull Terriers are also extremely powerful dogs even though they small. They are known to be very loving and people-friendly, although they might be stubborn and have a will of their own.
