Bull Terrier – The Most Misunderstood Dog

When we had decided to go in for a smaller breed after we lost our Dalmatian our eyes were set on the Bull Terrier. But we were discouraged as there were reports about the Bull Terrier being violent and ferocious. Probably there were incidents that led people to believe that. But we have a different experience.

We took a chance and brought home a pup. We named him Rana.

Rana did show signs of  being wild and we thought we had taken a wrong decision. But strangely as time went by and with our patience with him he slowly got domesticated and in fact turned out to be the most affectionate and loving pet we ever had

Rana enjoyed petting and he even wanted that we hand feed him. We did that right until his last day on earth. He shared the  bed with us and became an adorable member of the family. He was very fond

of our cat.  They were the best of friends. They just wanted each other’s company. They slept together, ate together and even played with each other. Our cat wanted him around when she had her litter. He would clean the babies and put them back in the basket. He was gentle with the kittens and they were very comfortable with him.

I therefore feel it is the way an animal is brought up rather than put the blame on their instincts. The good news is that more and more animal lovers have now become aware that a bull terrier could be the best pet to have around as they are very good with people specially children.

Here is a link that has all the details of this adorable pet

Before assuming therefore it would be good if research is done as with a bit of patience Bull Terriers could be ideal pets and so society could save them from being killed and ill treated.

    • It's always the owner that gives an animal breed a bad name. I have a pit bull. He is classified as the "Bully" type since he has wide shoulders and a big neck. He is very friendly and loves the cats we have. He does push them off the railing when they are playing but he will never hurt them. People who take care of their animals tend to have animals that act better than those that are mistreated. I don't blame the animals but I blame their owners.

    • I agree this dog has special qualities this 1st is very brave,when this dog attack on something than its very hard ro stop.we used to have 2 Bultair do in our house.Both were in white color.In our viilege all other dogs were scared of them.

      • Yes dog are brave and faithful but some dogs are very brave and bold do not hesitate in attacking the new comer at home I have seen this scene last year when I went o see my friend his German Shepherd dog ran to me to bite but at the same time the owner my friend call him in voice listening to the owner's voice he started licking my feet I wondered how nice was that dog.

        After this whenever I went to see my friend he never barked at me. Dogs has wit and wisdom and know very well have difference between the own and the thief.

        What a wonderful sense all the dogs have.

    • I agree with you that Bull Terrier is one of the most ferocious dog and one of the best attacker on something being done against the owner. One of my friends has this do according to his he is the best friend of human being than other dog His shoulder and neck both full of awe and he is brave and faithful to the owner.

      I think all animals are the best friends of human being all are hungry of love but I have seen on National Geographic Channels using the tool of love most of peoples have tamed dangerous animal like lions, panther, jackal, hyena,,,but on the other hand man could not tame man living together I think we all have the love deficiency in practical field.

      This love deficiency is taking men to the hell of hate in all societies. I think man is a rational animal but he could not learn still how to tame man.

    • bestwriter..Although I am not interested in keeping pet dogs,yet I appreciate your experience with them.While reading your article I was thinking all the time,if the animals can be trained by the human beings why cant we train human beings.There are many amongst us who badly need this type of training.I think whenever we make a syllabus for our future teachers, we must add something about how to train some students.

      • The difference between animals and human beings is that pets are receptive because their needs are limited but not so with human beings They have preposterous demands that need to be fulfilled if they are to obey. Sad but true.

    • me too love pets i have a dog his name is rommy. he is not a breed a street dog but when we took him to our house he is so small and cute. He live with us for 12 years but now he is not with us. i went to the lord almighty and stay with him.

      • We too have a street dog who just walked in one day. She is the most dignified and well behaved street dog I have come across so far.
