History and origins:
The bull terrier was created by James Hink and recognized by the English kennel club in 1887. Since pit fighting was banned in 1835 it is safe to assume that the Bull terrier never was meant to be used as a fighting dog. Hink wanted to create a mono-coloured white bull and terrier dog and it is believed that he crossed them with Dalmatians and Pointers.

Temparement:
Many describes bull terriers as real goofy clown-dogs with a big personality. They are what you can call "an enjoyer of life" with a spontaneity that can be misstanken for being rebellious. Couragious is also a word used to describe these dogs as well as loving. Many bull terriers likes close physical contact - enjoy cuddles and sitting in people's laps (despite their size).

With their explosive personalities they require a lot of consistensy, patience and clear rules.
