The Staffordshire Bull Terrier is known for its good temperament with children, earning it the nickname ''Nanny Dog''. I would recommend buying a puppy so that it can grow up around children and learns how to behave around them. Staffordshire Bull Terriers are naturally loving Dogs with people, but you must make sure to supervise children when around any Dog (regardless of breed) and make sure that they know how to handle Dogs properly. As long as you do this, a Staffordshire Bull Terrier can be a child's best friend. My Stafford lives with four children under the age of 12 and she has always been 100% reliable with them.

Are pitbulls and bull terriers the same?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

If you define a terrier as it is supposed to be defined, then NO, a pit bull should not be classified as a terrier. Terrier means "earth dog," referring to dogs which go to ground for game. American Pit Bulls have never been used for digging out game, though they have been (and still are being) used for hunting boar and other animals. According to the AKC and UKC, they are registered in the Terrier Group (AKC recognizes the Pit Bull as an American Staffordshire Terrier). Possibly, they have been placed in this group due to their gameness, but many current fanciers agree that they ought to be placed in the working group for their talents as herding dogs, service dogs, search and rescue dogs, Schutzhund dogs, and even sledding/weight pull dogs. yes

Is it hard to train a pit bull terrier?

Asked by Wiki User

Pit bulls often are associated with negative stereotypes, but in actuality these dogs can pleasant and faithful. Good with children, they make wonderful family dogs. Training is what will make this dog a reliable companion. Begin training at seven weeks, but formal obedience training should begin at 4 - 6 months. Be sure to use positive training methods that rely on praise and treats as motivators, rather than pain. Use proper technique when training the pit bull terrier, as you would with any dog. Pit bulls are not dominant by nature and will respond with proper encouragement. House train your pit bull terrier to be housebroken by taking him outside often. Wait 20 - 30 minutes after feeding the dog, then take him for a walk. After bringing the dog inside, wait a little, and then take him back outside to see if he needs to go again. Say, "no" if the dog pees inside and immediately take him outside. Say "pee outside" and praise him when he does so. Train your pit bull to always heel when on the leash. Do this by not allowing it to pull you, and jerk the leash should the dog begin to walk in front of you, saying "Heel" firmly at the same time. Praise it when it obeys. Be consistent. If you are consistent, the dog will know what to expect, and will be even-tempered.

What homeowner insurance company will cover American bull terriers?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Every dog owner needs to have homeowner insurance or renters insurance that provides coverage for, and does not exclude, injuries inflicted by dogs or animals in general, and has a limit of at least $100,000 for personal liability. This type of insurance will enable the dog owner's insurance company to pay an appropriate amount of compensation for all but the most severe accidents caused by a dog. Because the dog owner's own relatives, friends and neighbors are the most likely victims of a possible dog attack, having insurance means protecting the people who are closest to the dog owner, thereby protecting valuable relationships and ensuring proper treatment of loved ones.

Given the fact that a dog is most likely to bite someone whom the dog owner loves most, it is recommended that dog owners have higher limits, such as $1 million, through either their homeowners and renters policies or by an "umbrella" policy. It is very inexpensive to obtain an umbrella policy.Some big insurers, including Allstate and Farmers Insurance Group, won't cover homes in some states if residents own certain breeds. Others exclude some breeds from liability coverage, or charge extra for it. The so-called vicious-breed lists include German shepherds, Akitas and Siberian huskies, along with Alaskan Malamutes, Chow Chows, Doberman Pinschers, American pit bull terriers and their cousins.

Bull terrier why do they bark so much?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

one of the reasons people love English Bull Terrier (EBT) is because they have a personality, they are trying to talk to you.

but it is unusual for them to bark all the time, they are a placid breed. it may be distressed, or it may hear another dog in the area barking. is it left alone all the time? that could be why, they need lots of attention and really DO miss you when you are gone. they love their cuddles but also love to play. he may be trying to get you to play with him if he is coming up to you and barking.

but if he barks with his lip raised and his ears back, tell him off cos he's being aggressive.
