The character of the Bull Terrier is probably the outstanding feature which draws prospective owners to the breed. A typical Bull Terrier is active, interesting, playful and clownish. It is also extremely attached to its owners or family. These all sound like attributes of the perfect dog, however, there are drawbacks to these characteristics which do not suit every prospective owner or every situation. Bull Terriers like to join family activity and for this reason require constant and firm discipline. They can be wonderful with children if handled with common sense, both by the adults and the children. Bull Terriers will tolerate a large range of children's behavior but they will not tolerate being teased and can be rough if constantly provoked. They are tireless playmates and will chase balls, follow the children and watch their games for hours on end. Bull Terriers are unique in the
spectrum of dogs. They have been carefully selected and bred largely by
responsible and caring people who understand the legacy of their chosen
breed. They can give tremendous joy or wreak havoc, depending on the time
and effort spent by their owners to control and develop their special
character.
