I don't know. Pit them together and find out!

Yes but not if all things are equal. An Adult wild fox if attacked by a border terrier would kill the terrier. Wild animals are fast and tough, domesticated animals slow and soft....and apparently tasty according to coyotes that hang around towns and cities.

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.


What are the three different types of bulling?

By 'Bulling' I assume you mean Bulldog. There are only two recognised Bulldogs in England, the French and the English Bulldog. In America there is also an American Bulldog. However, there are also Bull Terriers such as the Pit Bull Terrier, American Staffordshire Terrier, Staffordshire Bull Terrier and English Bull Terrier. Unrecognised breeds of Bulldog also exist, such as the Valley, Brazilian and Victorian Bulldog's. There are also 'Bully-type' breeds such as the Boston Terrier and Pug - but these breeds were never actually used for bull baiting. If by 'Bulling' you mean bull baiting, then that is a long banned blood sport were a tethered bull or bear had Bulldog's set on it for entertainment. People would bet on either how many dog's the Bull/Bear could kill in a set time or how long it would take the dog's to kill the Bear/Bull.


Why was the American Staffordshire Terrier bred?

In the nineteenth century in the English region of Staffordshire, crossing among the Bulldog and various terriers developed the muscular, active, combativeStaffordshire Bull Terrier. Brought to the United States, the breed was preferred by American breeders who increased its weight and gave it a more powerful head. Now recognized as a separate breed, the American Staffordshire is larger and heavier than his British cousin, the Staffordshire Bull Terrier. After dog fighting was banned in the United States in 1900, two strains of these dogs were developed, a show strain and a fighting dog strain. The show strain was labeled the American Staffordshire, while the fighting dog strain was labeled the American Pit Bull Terrier. The two are now being recognized as separate breeds. Today the American Pit Bull Terrier is being bred with the same gentle qualities as the American Staffordshire Terrier. They both make great pets with the right kind of owner. The American Staffordshire Terrier was recognized by the AKC in 1936. Some of the American Staffordshire Terriers talents are watchdog, guarding, police work, weight pulling and agility.


What were staffordshire bull terriors bred for?

Staffordshire Bull Terriers were bred in an age where Bull baiting and Dog fighting were still seen as 'sports'. Bull baiting is when a tethered bull has trained Dogs set on it so that onlookers can bet on either how many Dogs the Bull can kill or how long it takes for the Dogs to kill the Bull. A similar blood sport was using bears. Dog fighting was organised in pits where people would bet on which Dog would win; this is also how the Pit Bull Terrier originated. Luckily, these 'sports' have been illegal for more than a century. Unfortunately, organised Dog fights still take place illegally in some countries. Today, Staffordshire Bull Terriers make great pets and family members.

Would a staffordshire bull terrier kill a bull mastiff?

If trained correctly and socialised from a young age, neither of these breeds should become dog aggressive. However, in this worst case scenario, both breeds, despite the size difference, could have a chance of winning. The Bullmastiff could use it's bigger size as an advantage and overpower the Staffy. But, Staffordshire Bull Terriers are quick and agile, meaning one clean leap for the Bullmastiff's throat could crush its windpipe. It is more likely, however, that the Bullmastiff would win.


What reason will a staffordshire bull terriers turn on their pups?

This is not a very likely scenario as almost all Dogs make excellent mothers. Dogs will usually only kill their offspring if they are very sickly. This is not a normal behaviour in Dogs and a mum that has killed her offspring should not be bred from again. Possible reasons for cannibalism or killing of puppies are a behavioural abnormality in the mother or the mother having a calcium or nutrient deficiency. If looked after properly, a mother should not kill her puppies.

Which two breeds made the pitbull breed?

the first Colbys dogs were bred in England in 1886 but The pit bull's ancestry can be traced back to roughly the 12th century, when European hunters cross-bred the molossus, an early mastiff, with the Bellenbeiser, or bull-biter--which became known as the bulldog--was used to attack dangerous game animals. With their powerful jaws, bulldogs could penetrate a tough hide, slash muscle, crush bone, and grip like a vise. While other dogs could track wild boar and bear, only the bulldog had the mettle to clamp its jaws on the larger animal's nose and hold it, allowing the hunter to move in for the kill.


What kind of pit bull is the target pit bull?

The Target dog is a Bull Terrier. Ignore other users who would forewarn you of the bully breeds, such as the American Pit Bull Terrier, American Staffordshire Terrier, and the Staffordshire Bull Terrier. To blame an entire breed on a few bad owners who cannot control or train their dogs is just like saying all African Americans are criminals, and all Hispanics are lazy.. it's just plain racism! A pit bull is actually less likely to bite than many popular breeds, such as the Golden Retriever, Bichon Frise, etc. (ATTS.com) -Animal Control Officer, Delaware Animal Care and Control American Pit bull terr.Also the staffishire is on the list .But beware of the onwer of all bulldog breeds. That's the problem. The Target "Pit bull" Is not a pit bull at all, it is called an "English Bull terrier" or "Bull terrier" I don't see (not being offensive) how the answer above really answers it, but... Its what they said. But I do agree, it is the owner not the dog itself, they are bred to please and if someone says go get them, They go get them, if they say Fight and kill that dog They will try their damnedest to Kill tha dog. Also to the person who said "beware of the onwer of all bulldog breeds" you're on the right track, but you've still got it wrong. True, a bad dog is made by a bad owner. But to say all pit bull owners are bad is just as ludacris as saying all pit bulls are bad. I'm a mid-20s white woman with a college education and a career. I'm the epitome of middle class. And I own a pit bull. I don't have a criminal record, nor do I ever plan to. I just met a dog who stole my heart, so I took her home. Good people can own pit bulls, too.
