The Bull Terrier originates from England and was bred originally for dog fighting. It's origins can be dated back to the 1800's. The Bull Terrier is also known by the other name of the English Bull Terrier and has the nickname of the " White Cavalier" reflecting its defensive fighting strategy. This dog is classified as one of the Terrier Dog Group which we go on to describe in detail in the section at the bottom of this page. The Bull Terrier was first Registered by the AKC (American Kennel Club) in 1885. Name Facts and Dog Names: This dog's name is sometimes mis-spelt as terrior and terriors.

If you remember the late 1980s, you probably recall the Budweiser commercials featuring a Bull Terrier named Spuds Mackenzie, whose sly grin and on-screen antics turned the breed into a pop icon. Many people were captivated by the breed's unique head, muscular build, and fun-loving nature. After the ads aired, the Bull Terrier's popularity soared.

Nicknamed "the kid in a dog suit," the Bull Terrier is active and friendly, as well as being one of the clowns of the dog world. He has a larger-than-life personality that ranges from intelligent and innovative--not always the most desirable qualities in a dog--to placid and loyal. He also comes in a smaller version--the Miniature Bull Terrier--who shares the same attributes.

Life with a Bull Terrier is always an experience. He's a "busy" dog from puppyhood well into middle age. The Bull Terrier isn't content to spend long periods alone day after day; he wants to be with his people, doing what they're doing. He does best with an active family who can provide him with plenty of energetic play. He also needs someone who will consistently (but kindly) enforce the house rules. Otherwise, he'll make up rules of his own. For that reason, he's not the best choice for timid owners or people who are new to dogs.
