The Bull Terrier was originally developed in the 19th century as a fighting dog and, later, a fashionable companion for gentlemen, but these days he's a family companion and show dog. He's distinguished by his long, egg-shaped head. Here's more info.
yes
A distinction is usually drawn between American Staffordshire bull terriers and English Staffordshire bull terriers and that is the two main types of bloodlines in the Staffordshire bull terrier family. Sometimes pit bull terriers are also placed in this category.
i don't no but i know the American bull terrier is banned in Ireland well that's wot i read... Yes Pit Bull Terriers are banned in the UK and if found with one you will be fined taken to Court and the dog will be put down so not a very good idea you should probably just get a staff :) x
This question can't be answered without knowing what you mean. Which breed is the better pet? Which breed is better with children? better with other pets? better for living in an apartment? Please specify what you were looking for.______________________________________________________________________i don't know what you mean either, but i do have a EBT (English Bull Terrier) myself, and have had a staff in the past.if you are looking for a better breed pet wise, then that is a difficult one.staffs are easier to train as EBTs are very stubborn.EBTs are so cute cos they look like they are giving you expressions and are more intelligent (can be a problem when you are trying to get something off of him when he runs away with a sock or something).when you have an EBT, you will never want any other breed of dog, guarantee it, as long as you bring him up right and be firm with him (or her).i couldn't possibley answer that either but i would say i have had staffordshires all my life and they are really intelligent dogs and really loving family pets but on the other hand my cousin has got 3 English bull terriers and they are all the same sort of personality to my staff bull they are all loving and really good with children and other dogs! soo that question i would say you cant answer unless you do what the first person said and Specify what you mean...
Both are good dogs. The English Bull is slightly larger. Both are loyal and when trained correctly make wonderful family pets.
No. The American pit bull terrier is the breed. "Eli" and "Razors Edge" are "lines". (And, generally speaking, not always good ones.)
I dont want to get into it with all the pit bull owners but two vets now have told me that bull terriers have more bite force than pit bulls. This topic only came about as I lived in a country where an english bull terrier (and pit bulls ) were considered a potentially dangerous dog and you had to get a liscence to own one. I dont really give a fu ck because as a dog owner I go for character rather then how hard my dog can bite. And they did try to fight bull terriers againts pit bulls years ago but the bull terrier was no good in the pit as it lacked the killer instinct. And I own a bull terrier and have to say that they are the best breed of dog that I have ever owned as they are sooo loving and foolish. They make you laugh so much and are excellent with kids. Peace
bull terriers are like living waste disposals, literally, they'll eat anything that you put under their noses i don't think it's very good for them to eat them, you should to look into it, ask at your vet or get a book on them.
This is a very difficult question to answer, simply because there are several breeds and crossbreeds which can fall into the category of Staffordshire bull terriers and this can create confusion. For example Pitt Bull terriers, American Staffordshire bull terriers and English Staffordshire bull terriers are three separate breeds, but would generally not be distinguished in reports if a dog has killed a human. Then there are also many crossbreeds who would also be classified as a Staffordshire bull terrier, but would not be a pure-bred one. Therefore, it is almost impossible to say how many people Staffordshire bull terriers have killed, but the number would be smaller than most people assume.
