Bull Terriers are not a breed for everyone. They have a complex dominant character. They are independent and stubborn, requiring serious education and timely socialization. Not all breeders can handle such dogs. If you raise a Bull Terrier incorrectly, its strength, developed intelligence, fearlessness and endurance of its ancestors can cause problems.
  Despite their reputation, bull terriers are good-natured and cheerful dogs. According to a study by the American Canine Association, only 10% of the breed have the fighting qualities of their ancestors and are dangerous to humans. Other breeds, with proper socialization and careful upbringing, become lovely pets. Problems arise due to improper behavior of owners.
  Dogs should not be allowed to bite people or other animals, much less feed bulls and instill a fighting spirit in them. Improperly raised dogs can even bite their owners. And the strength of their teeth can cause serious injuries. In addition, these dogs have a developed tracking instinct. Therefore, they can attack other animals. The high activity of the Bull Terrier manifests itself even in adulthood. Dogs can play and run 24 hours a day. Pets love to accompany their owners on jogging and cycling trips. If you don't exercise your dog, it can drain the energy in your home and harm the environment.

   The behavior of dogs largely depends on how they are raised. Each breed has its own temperamental characteristics that must be taken into account. Bull Terriers are characterized by hyperactivity, autonomy and independence. They are temperamental, easily offended, easily hurt, jealous and may suffer from depression.
  Bull Terriers are stubborn and strong-willed dogs. They will not obey unquestioningly, especially to those who are weak-willed and weak-willed. They often behave like capricious children. They require patience, persistence and consistent training. However, with experienced owners, bull terriers are obedient and loving. Their high intelligence and quick wit make them ideal pets. However, only if they are able to internalize authority and instantly show who is boss in the house. Bull Terriers are very intelligent, independent and strong-willed.
  The Bull Terrier is an unusual breed. They are not suitable for everyone. A strong, active dog with a fighting past can create many problems if not raised correctly. However, if you manage to gain his authority and teach him to behave correctly, he will become a cheerful companion and a loyal friend.
