Hello Dog Loving Friends,


The Bull Terrier or English Bull Terrier, and personally I love em' because they're fearless, stubborn, assertive, comical and mischievous, lol, but they're loyal, affectionate and loving.

Bullies can make a good family pet...

Originally in the mid-19th century two breeders crossed a Bulldog with the now extinct English Terrier and wella....a Bull Terrier!

The intent was for breeding a more agile fighting dog.

Later on, with more refinement in the breed the Bullie become a much gentler dog. The Bull Terrier or ‘Bullie’ is without doubt a powerful, energetic and lively dog.

Bullies have a life expectancy of between 11 and 13 years:

• Most Bull Terriers are fairly healthy with some common problems
• They're prone to heart or kidney disease
• Occasional deafness in the white coloured dogs
• Bullie’s body is mostly short, stocky and well muscled with a broad chest
• Bullies are usually white in colour and can have head markings
• Bull Terriers are about 20 to 24 inches tall at shoulder height
• Can weigh between 45 to 70 pounds...

One thing you should consider is that Bull Terriers need lots of attention and can be kept in the city if they're involved in family activities:

• Bullies are probably too high-spirited and energetic for small children
• Can be fine with older children who are taught not to tease
• These dogs are quite strong willed and are difficult to train
• The breed needs early socialization when they're puppies with on-going obedience training
• Male Bullies, especially those which haven’t been neutered, can be extremely aggressive with other male dogs and even other pets
• Bull Terriers need lots of attention or they can become destructive when bored
• Bullies make good watchdogs
• They need an experienced dog owner
• May not do well with a novice owner...
  

Bullies needs moderate with regular daily exercises and playtime:

• He must be kept on a leash at all times to prevent them from fighting with other dogs
• They can adapt to apartment life if given lots of exercise and attention

Bull Terriers require minimal grooming beyond an occasional brushing!
