Notes

The powerful Bull Terrier is the result of old bulldogs crossed with the now extinct Old English White Terrier.

The bulldog breed type has been around since at least the late 1700's to early 1800's, when bull fighting was popular in Britain. This 'sport' was made illegal in 1835, and the bulldogs were trained to fight each other instead. By crossing them with terriers, the 'Bull and Terrier Dog' was created - a dog that did not just bite but also fought back. These dogs were in return bred to the White Terrier, forming what we know today as the 'Bull Terrier'.

The creation of this breed is mainly thanks to James Hink from Birmingham, who bred these dogs during the early 1860's in an attempt to get a white-coated, more elegant terrier that was still as effective and strong as the fighting dogs. The Bull Terrier was recognized in 1887.

The Bull Terrier should be a powerful and agile dog. The head is long, powerful, deep and completely filled out. The ears are small, thin and set close to each other. The neck is arched and very powerful, the chest rounded with a deep chest and straight back. The under line should form a gentle curve.
