Miniature Bull Terrier

 

        The Miniature Bull Terrier is exactly like the Bull Terrier in every way but size. Its coat is short, harsh to the touch but should have a sheen, and it can be colored any color. Both males and females should be 10-14 inches tall. In the American Kennel Club show ring, any dog outside of this range will be penalized. The Miniature Bull Terrier was bred as a cross between a Bulldog and the now extinct White English Terrier. When they thought it wasn’t big enough, they added Spanish Pointer to the breed. With the variety that now exists, they separated the breed into two separate breeds, a Standard and Miniature strain. The temperament of the Miniature Bull Terrier is courageous and full of fire, but Miniature Bull Terriers should be amendable to training.
