Best Answer

Bull terriers have a higher rate of human aggression and a much higher bite rate than pit bull terriers. They are more unpredictable around children as well. In my opinion, I would choose an American Pit Bull Terrier over a Bull Terrier. Check out atts.org and research which breeds pass the standard American Temperament Testing Society's test- you may be surprised by the pit bull's results. They have a higher pass rate than the Golden Retriever, and one of the highest overall pass rates.

Do staffordshire bull terriors kill rats?

Yes, the Staffordshire Bull Terrier was originally bred to kill rats for pest control and organised ''ratting'' competitions. However, I have a Staffy and two pet rats and my Staffy is scared of them! There are many breeds that were bred for vermin control, including the Jack Russell Terrier, Parson Russell Terrier, Yorkshire Terrier, Norfolk Terrier, Lakeland Terrier, Miniature Schnauzer, Border Terrier, Patterdale Terrier and many more. In fact, pretty much all Terriers were originally bred to kill rats.

Which is stronger an English bull terrier or a staffordshire bull terrier?

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...


What is English bull terriers history?

In the early 1800's Bulldogs crossed with terriers were popular. By 1830 combat between Bulldogs and bulls were at the height of their popularity. Lovers of this so called "sport" decided to create a dog that would attack even more agilely. They crossed the Bulldog with the Old English Terrier adding in some Spanish Pointer blood, the result was the Bull Terrier breed. They soon found that the Bull Terriers were not the most successful fighters. In 1860 the white-coated variety, which was nicknamed the "White Cavalier" was bred by a dog dealer named English dog dealer James Hinks and soon became a fashionable pet for nobles. The colored variety of Bull Terriers were created by back crossing them with brindle Staffordshires The breed has been used as a guard, ratter, herder and watchdog. The Miniature was developed to have the same qualities as the Standard Bull Terrier but with a more manageable size. The Standard Bull Terrier was first recognized by the AKC in 1885 and the Miniature Bull Terrier in 1991. While the AKC sees the Standard Bull Terrier and the Miniature Bull Terrier as separate breeds the standard requirements are the same accept for size. Whereas most other clubs see them as different varieties of the same breed or the same breed without placing a variety label. For example the FCI (Federation Cynologique Internationale) has both breeds listed under Bull Terrier separating them by a Standard and Miniature variety. The UCK (United Kennel Club) does not place any height or weight restrictions but does require the dog to be in proportion. The Bull Terrier was recognized by the United Kennel Club in 1948.
