Meet the triangle-eyed bull terrier

Yes, I said triangular eyes … The Bull Terrier is the only breed that is recognized to have triangular eyes. Not the shape of the eyeball, but the shape of the eye … as we would say that a person has “almond-shaped” eyes. Bull terriers often look bad, so to speak, as they are often misidentified with American Pit Bull Terriers … They are not Pit Bulls, they are Bull Terriers. They are not directly related, but come from the same ancestors.

The Bull Terrier was bred from 2 now-extinct breeds: the Old English Bulldog and the Old English Terrier. They were affectionately known as the “Bull and Terrier”. The breed was then divided into 2 branches: the pure white Bull Terrier and the colored varieties. Bull terriers are especially known for their egg-shaped head, with a Roman muzzle, and triangular eyes, as mentioned above. They are densely implanted and muscular with short, dense coats.

The “accepted colors” to display are white, any color other than white, or a combination of white and any other color. There is also a miniature of this breed, the Miniature Bull Terrier.

It is always said that they have the attitude of a “clown”, they play hard and are very intelligent. Bulls are very outgoing and love their humans! Their mind and body should be exercised regularly and they are not recommended for first time dog owners. However, they are good dogs to keep around children as they have a high tolerance for pain and this dramatically reduces the chance of a defensive injury for a child. They make excellent watchdogs, especially for protecting children in their “dog care.”
