Getting to Know Bull Terriers

Bull terrier dogs are medium-sized dogs with a short and smooth coat that minimally shed. This particular dog breed was originally intentionally bred to fight. Having a direct relation to both bulls and terriers, breeders back then thought that this would make the perfect fighting dog. It may come as a surprise but the bull terriers did not use to look the way that they do now. In the 1860s, James Hinks from England decided to breed bull terriers with other dog breeds such as the white terrier, border collies and dalmatians. This resulted in the bull terriers being white and was called “white cavaliers”. Later on, bull terriers had colours other than white after having bred with Stafford bull terriers.

Even with their background and history, bull terriers are goofy, gentle and sweet. They are the type of dog who requires a lot of playtimes and has a lot of energy. This is one of the most exciting traits of a bull terrier. Running both indoors and outdoors, rolling around in the mud and dragging your stuff around the house is no surprise.
