    This breed is often compared to the following dog breeds: Doberman Pinscher, American Staffordshire Terrier, French Bulldog, German Shepherd, Rottweiler.

    A negative opinion arose due to the fact that the bull terrier was bred as a fighting dog. The breed's reputation suffered even more in the 90s, when newbies adopted these difficult-to-train dogs. They couldn't cope with their upbringing, and an uncontrollable, angry dog ​​grew up. To understand what a breed actually is, you need to study its description, the pros and cons of its content, and reviews from owners.

    Mating

    English bull terriers take a long time to mature. The first heat in female dogs does not occur until a year later, sometimes at 14-15 months.

    Dogs are untied from 2-3 years old. The meeting is held on the dog’s territory – there he feels confident. Before the “date,” the animals are not fed, they are introduced during a walk and given half an hour to an hour to get used to each other.

    Pregnancy lasts 56-72 days. 5-7 pups are born in a litter.

    Characteristics of bull terriers

    In terms of popularity among famous breeds, bull terriers are now in 42nd place. In every country there are lovers of the breed who consider it the best for home keeping. This is a truly unusual dog, difficult to train. She has a memorable appearance and an unusual character. She can become a faithful companion, a cheerful playmate for a child. According to many owners, the Bull is a sissy and a sleepyhead, affectionate, touchy and vulnerable. But the reputation of a dangerous, evil killer did not arise out of nowhere.

    The Bull Terrier is not a breed for everyone. He has a complex dominant character. Independence and stubbornness require serious education and timely socialization. Not every dog ​​breeder can handle such a dog. If you raise a Bull Terrier incorrectly, its strength, developed intelligence, fearlessness and endurance, which are inherited from its ancestors, can cause problems.

    The advantages of these dogs

    According to fanciers, bull terriers are the best pets. They have many advantages in character, behavior and content features:

    • friendly, loving, gentle, love children;
    • active, hardy, cheerful and playful;
    • loyal, ready to protect the owner from any threats;
    • smart, quick-witted, easily understands commands;
    • due to their small size they get along well in a city apartment;
    • require minimal care, are unpretentious and clean.

    Minuses

    But when getting such a dog, it is important to understand that the bull terrier is an unusual dog. You need to immediately prepare for the fact that others are biased towards the breed. Many people get scared and demand that the dog be muzzled or removed from the dog park. But this is not the only drawback of the breed. Before getting a bull terrier, you need to pay attention to the following disadvantages:

    • They become very attached to their owner and cannot stand loneliness;
    • prone to dominance, without strict upbringing they become uncontrollable;
    • They can make a lot of noise, fuss, chew things out of boredom, are capable of crumbling a chair, tearing off linoleum;
    • jealous, do not get along well with pets, can hunt cats, are aggressive towards dogs;
    • they require active walks and high physical activity;
    • lack guard qualities, since they have no malice towards people;
    • They cannot tolerate frost, and white dogs can get burned in the bright sun.

    Who can and cannot have dogs of this breed

    Bull Terriers are very active, inquisitive and intelligent. The breed is perfect for people who lead an active lifestyle and can spend a lot of time with their pet. Bull Terriers cannot stand loneliness and constantly require attention. The owner must understand the characteristics of this breed and know the rules of training. It is not recommended to have this dog for families who are planning to have a child, as they are jealous and touchy and require a lot of attention. The Bull Terrier will never become a calm and obedient lap dog. The following people should also not have a breed:

    • physically weak - girls, pensioners, children;
    • hot-tempered, unbalanced;
    • unable to gain authority or show firmness;
    • for beginners who do not understand how to behave with such a difficult dog to train.

    Often professional breeders meticulously choose a new owner for puppies. They try to prevent the dog from developing fighting qualities, so that improper training turns it into an uncontrollable, angry dog. Interesting video about the advantages and disadvantages of bull terriers:

    Socialization

    English bull terriers are not recommended for older people. Families with children should be careful - if the dog is poorly socialized, clashes due to jealousy cannot be avoided. Plus these dogs don't like to be teased. Sometimes the games and behavior of children are interpreted by animals as a challenge, and they respond accordingly.

    Therefore, a bull terrier and children under 10 years old are not the best company. Toddlers do not yet know how to properly handle a dog, and the dog is rarely careful during games. He can push or knock down a child - such an event, given the remarkable strength of the pet, entails disastrous consequences.

    Bull Terriers get along well with children of middle school age. They are strong and durable enough to withstand sometimes wild games.

    But relations with other pets are worse than ever. There are English Bull Terriers that tolerate the company of other dogs and cats. The key word is patience. They will not become friends, but will only learn to coexist peacefully.

    A dog will never get along with birds and rodents. A hamster brought into the house will live for 3 minutes at most.

    Plus, the characteristics of the breed include a tendency to dominate. Bullies try to push cats, dogs and even family members to the bottom of the hierarchical ladder. And towards other males they are completely aggressive. You should avoid the company of other people's dogs when walking: even a muzzle will not save you from a fight - bull terriers tear it off in half a second.

    History of the origin of bull terriers

    The ancestors of bull terriers are dogs that were used for fighting. In the Middle Ages, bloody sport was popular in England - they set dogs against large animals: bulls, bears, wild boars. There was a fighting pit in every English village. Strong, angry, hardy and fast small dogs were used for fighting. They were specially selected from English bulldogs.

    After a law prohibiting bullfighting was passed at the beginning of the 19th century, lovers of this bloody spectacle switched to dogs. Fighting breeds began to be bred, more active and agile. The result was the Bull and Terrier, which combined the ferocity and powerful grip of the Bulldog with the energy of the Terrier. They were ready to fight to the bitter end, did not feel pain, and their bites were often fatal.

    The modern bull terrier breed appeared in the middle of the 19th century. The breeder was James Hinks. He tried to improve the external characteristics of the bull and terrier, to breed a more attractive dog. English bulldogs, white terriers, Amstaffs, even greyhounds and Dalmatians were used in the selection. Compared to the Bull and Terrier, the new breed had an elongated head, a long body, and the dewlap on the neck and folds of skin disappeared. The result was an elegant, unusual dog with developed intelligence. But she still has the traits of fighting breeds:

    • powerful jaws that cannot be unclenched; the bite creates a pressure of 25 atmospheres;
    • ferocious character;
    • excellent response;
    • small strong body;
    • perseverance and perseverance;
    • strength, endurance.

    At that time, bull terriers were white; other colors were not allowed. The new breed was recognized at the end of the 19th century and became popular. At the beginning of the 20th century, amateur clubs began to be created around the world. This dog went from being a fighting dog to being a companion. But the history of the new breed had many problems. At first, crossing white individuals with colored individuals was not allowed. This almost brought the breed to the brink of destruction - white dogs began to be born with genetic diseases. Then the ban on ear cropping forced breeders to look for a way to make them stand up. And now in some countries this breed has been completely banned. These are Germany, Ireland, Switzerland, Spain, Israel.

    Bull terriers are not prohibited in Russia. The breed became popular in the 90s, but immediately acquired a negative reputation. This is due to the fact that these dogs were bred by inexperienced dog breeders. They were raised incorrectly, even set against them. Therefore, many people have the opinion that the bull terrier is an angry dog ​​that is inadequate and can attack at any moment.

    • turning of the eyelids;
    • joint dysplasia;
    • aortic stenosis;
    • epilepsy;
    • deafness.

    Character and habits of bull terriers

    Despite their reputation, Bull Terriers are good-natured, cheerful dogs. A study by the American Canine Association found that only 10% of the breed retained the fighting qualities of their ancestors and can pose a danger to humans. The rest, with proper socialization and strict upbringing, become lovely pets. Problems arise due to improper behavior of owners.

    A dog should not be allowed to bite people or other animals; it is even more prohibited to bait bulls or develop fighting qualities in them. An improperly trained dog can even bite its owner. And with the strength of his teeth, this can lead to serious injury. These dogs also have a developed instinct of pursuit. Therefore, they can attack other animals. Bull Terriers are highly active even in adulthood. The dog is ready to play and run around the clock. Pets love to accompany their owner when running and cycling. If you don't give your dog exercise, he will throw out energy at home and can cause damage to the environment.

    A dog's behavior greatly depends on its upbringing. Each breed has temperamental characteristics that need to be taken into account. Bull Terriers are characterized by hyperactivity, autonomy, and independence. They are willful, touchy and vulnerable, and may be jealous or suffer from depression. But besides the negative qualities, the character of bull terriers has many positive traits.

    • Representatives of the breed have a stable psyche. They are not shy, not aggressive. If the beloved owner is nearby, the dog will be calm in any environment.
    • These dogs have a sense of humor. They can make the owner laugh and cheer him up. And the structure of the muzzle is such that the dog can smile.
    • The Bull Terrier is a good-natured, friendly pet, not at all angry. He loves people and greets guests joyfully.
    • This is a devoted dog, he loves his owner very much. Accompanies him everywhere, misses him. This is the perfect companion.

    These dogs love children and enjoy playing with them. The main thing is that adults are nearby, as the bull can accidentally push the child, because he is quite clumsy. He also does not tolerate being teased or hurt. The child must be old enough to understand how to behave. After all, even a slight bite from this dog can be dangerous. The video shows that these dogs are cute, good-natured and cheerful:

    Why is a bull terrier dangerous?

    The negative reputation of bull terriers appeared due to unscrupulous breeders. When these dogs became popular, kennels started breeding them without caring about their temperament. Breeders did not pay attention to the selection of individuals with a stable psyche and lack of aggression. And owners often cultivated fighting instincts. From their ancestors, representatives of the breed inherited qualities that can make them dangerous.

    • A tenacious grip of powerful jaws that is difficult to release. This dog can hold a bite for up to 3 hours. You can force him to release his grip by holding ammonia to his nose.
    • The Bull Terrier's build is strong and muscular. He is very dexterous, agile, moves easily and actively. Moreover, it can cause pain even when showing tender feelings to the owner, since it does not have delicacy.
    • This dog is hardy and stubborn, capable of making independent decisions. Can rush at a person whom it considers a threat. And if the dog starts something, he won’t back down. For this reason, you should not train bull terriers or give them the “front” command.
    • The desire to win and the willingness to fight to the end. The Bull Terrier will fight bravely against an opponent stronger than him. These dogs are insensitive to pain.

    Many people confuse the Bull Terrier with similar breeds. These are the American Staffordshire Terrier, the English Staffordshire Bull Terrier, and the American Pitbull. It is the latter breed that is dangerous and prohibited for breeding in many countries. Pit bulls are aggressive, fearless, and can attack at any time. And bull terriers rarely make it into the rankings of the most aggressive dog breeds.

    Application

    The English Bull Terrier is primarily a companion. Difficult, with a complex character and his own opinion. But these qualities make them the favorites of thousands of people who believe that service dogs, with their easy-going nature, lack personality.

    English bull terriers are suitable for active people who are ready to spend most of the day with their pets. The dogs are active, active and athletic. They need someone who will appreciate their temperament, who can love endlessly and judge fairly.

    Representatives of the breed are good watchmen and security guards. The blood of fighting dogs still flows in their veins.

    Bull Terriers are always ready for a fight, although they do not seek it. But in case of danger, even suspicious, they frantically defend themselves and their owner.

    Due to the risk of developing aggression, they prefer not to train English bull terriers for protective guard duty. Let the pets remain as loving and friendly as possible for the breed.

    Even the most affectionate boule is conflicted. But not everyone can control a dog trained for protection. In this case, while walking you will have to become a psychic owl - turn your head in all directions every second in search of potentially dangerous situations, predict them, avoid people and dogs.

    Education and training

    Bull Terriers are stubborn and headstrong dogs. They will not obey unquestioningly, especially to a weak-willed and weak person. This dog often behaves like a capricious child. It is necessary to show patience, persistence, and consistency in education. But an experienced owner will have a bull terrier that is obedient and affectionate. His high intelligence and quick wit make him an ideal pet. But only if a person can gain authority and immediately show who is boss in the house. Bull Terriers are very smart, independent, and willful. They quickly understand commands, but do not always follow them. To achieve obedience from a dog, you need to take the position of leader from the first day the puppy appears in the house and define the boundaries of what is permitted:

    • teach to share toys, allow the owner to take food;
    • immediately stop any aggression;
    • You should not be allowed to sleep on a bed or walk in the door in front of a person;
    • you cannot indulge whims and forgive pranks;
    • It is important to reward correct behavior with treats;
    • Do not allow cats to be chased or fights with dogs;
    • You cannot force a dog to do something, its stubbornness is difficult to overcome, this will only lead to a loss of authority.

    Any incorrect behavior must be responded to immediately and strictly, but not with physical punishment. It is important that all family members adhere to the same rules in education. From an early age, a dog needs socialization. She should not react aggressively to changes in the situation or to strangers. A small puppy must be introduced to loud sounds, car noise, and other animals. This will help avoid problems as he gets older. The peculiarity of training this dog is that it has scattered attention. It will take some effort to get your pet interested. Classes should take place in a playful environment and last no more than 10-15 minutes. Training can be time-consuming, but it is necessary, otherwise the Bull Terrier will become uncontrollable. This video will help you learn how to properly raise this dog:

    Conditions of detention

    Bull Terriers feel great in a city apartment. They are not intended for life on the street and feel comfortable in close proximity to humans.

    The owner should take into account that bull terriers are very active. Therefore, they need to be given the opportunity to throw out pent-up energy during long walks. In this case, preference should be given not to walking routes, but to places where the dog can run freely - parks, special stadiums, large dog parks.

    Caring for Bull Terrier dogs

    Bull Terriers are dogs that do not require much grooming. You need to bathe 2-3 times a year, but wash your paws after a walk. Short wool, if it becomes dirty, can be wiped with a damp cloth. There is also no need to comb it often; this is done 1-2 times a week using a special mitten or a stiff brush. During molting - daily. You should regularly examine your pet's eyes and ears. If necessary, wipe them with a cotton swab dipped in veterinary lotion. It is also recommended to brush your teeth several times a week with a special paste to avoid the formation of tartar. If the claws do not grind down on their own, they are trimmed every month with a nail clipper.

    Walk

    The Bull Terrier will become the best pet only if you provide it with long walks and physical activity. He needs jogging, outdoor games, the dog loves to run after a ball or Frisbee, and accompany the owner when riding a bicycle. During walks, the bull terrier must be on a leash. And in crowded places or on dog parks, it is advisable to put a muzzle on him. Even a well-mannered dog can lunge at a person or another dog if it feels a threat to itself or its owner. And since he is strong and agile, it is not always possible to hold him. Photos of bull terriers on a walk:

    Diet

    You can feed your bull terrier natural food or dry food. The diet must be selected carefully, only fresh foods should be given; these dogs often have allergies and indigestion. The main place in the diet should be lean meat, preferably raw, which is doused with boiling water. It is also important to give offal, cereals, vegetables, vegetable oil, sea fish, eggs, and dairy products. Veterinarians recommend adhering to the following rules:

    • always feed at the same time;
    • do not give food from your table or a lot of treats;
    • dogs fed natural food need to add vitamins to their food;
    • Do not give chocolate, smoked meats, fatty and spicy foods, baked goods, sausage, nuts;
    • if the pet refuses to eat, you need to change the diet; bull terriers are capricious in their choice of food;
    • Change your diet gradually; you cannot combine natural food and dry food.

    If your dog is fed industrial food, you should give preference to the premium and super-premium class. Suitable foods are Royal Canin, Acana, Brit Care, Probalance, intended for medium breed dogs.

    Health

    If you create normal conditions for your pet, he will live 13-14 years without illness. These are healthy dogs with almost no congenital pathologies. Sometimes found:

    • joint dysplasia, especially affecting the elbows and knees;
    • entropion of the eyelids, inflammatory eye diseases;
    • atopic dermatitis;
    • congenital deafness;
    • epilepsy.

    With the wrong choice of diet or unsuitable living conditions, bull terriers can suffer from allergies, obesity, and indigestion. These dogs are susceptible to colds, as they do not tolerate cold well, and individuals with white fur may develop sunburn. It is also important to carry out timely vaccinations and treat your pet against parasites.

    Health

    The British Bull Terrier is hardy and strong. But it is characterized by breed diseases. Therefore, on average, a bull terrier lives 10-12 years.

    Diseases

    The characteristics of the breed include the dogs’ tendency to:

    • congenital deafness – typical for white dogs;
    • elbow dislocations;
    • mastocytoma;
    • polycystic ovary syndrome;
    • inversion and eversion of the eyelids;
    • dermatitis and demodicosis;
    • aortic stenosis;
    • dysplasia;
    • epilepsy.

    Allergies, obesity, and skin pathologies due to improper feeding are common. Light-colored dogs are more susceptible to dermal diseases.

    Preventive measures

    Bull Terrier puppies are sold early - at 2, sometimes 1.5 months. Therefore, all vaccinations are done by the owner. The schedule and list of required vaccines is compiled by the veterinarian for each dog separately. The approximate diagram is as follows:

    • at 8 weeks - a drug for distemper, parvovirus, hepadnavirus, coronavirus, parainfluenza, leptospirosis;
    • at 11-12 weeks - revaccination;
    • at 4-6 months – rabies vaccination;
    • at 12 months and then annually - a comprehensive vaccine against all viruses.

    The Bull Terrier breed does not tolerate insect poison well. Even a mosquito bite can cause severe allergies. Therefore, once every 2-3 months it is necessary to carry out antiparasitic treatment against ticks, lice, fleas and helminths. In spring to autumn, collars with repellents and insecticides are recommended.

    Bull Terrier puppies

    It is better to purchase bull terriers from well-known kennels. The largest ones are located in Moscow, but in other cities of Russia you can also buy a purebred puppy. Its price is 30-40 thousand rubles. A show-class puppy from multiple exhibition winners costs at least 70 thousand. It is not recommended to buy a bull terrier without a pedigree from advertisements or on the market. In most cases, mestizos show aggression. And responsible breeders do not allow individuals with unstable psyches or genetic abnormalities to breed.

    In addition to documents and a veterinary passport, they give the new owner their phone number. And they always help with advice on feeding, care and education. When choosing a puppy, you need to pay attention to its behavior and appearance. It should be well-fed, but not fat, the coat should be smooth and clean, the nose should be wet and cold. There should be no discharge from the eyes or ears, bloated abdomen, or dandruff. It is important that the puppies are kept in normal conditions and are active. It is recommended to choose the most curious baby. Before buying, you need to check his hearing; bull terriers often suffer from congenital deafness.

Once every three days, the diet should include raw fish and eggs. You need to add vegetable oil (a tablespoon) to one of the daily servings. Regular consumption of fermented milk products is recommended.

    The following foods are strictly prohibited:

    • Fried foods.
    • Smoked meats and sausages;
    • I'll bake it.
