Interest in bull terriers is consistently high. Most of society calls this dog a monster, but there are also those who adore it and consider it a baby in dog clothes who you can't help but love.

Such a different bull terrier

Most people call all dogs with the characteristic pig-like muzzle Bull Terriers. Meanwhile, dog handlers usually use the term pit bull. This name covers dogs with similar physical characteristics and includes the American Staffordshire Terrier (Amstaff), Bull Terrier, American Bulldog, Dogo Argentino, Dogo Canario, Italian Cane Corso, or any mixture of these.

However, not only ordinary people, have little understanding of cynology, but lawyers in many countries do not bother with such nuances and equate any dog ​​with bull terriers if one of its parents belonged to the above-mentioned breeds. The fact is that the genetic similarity of these dogs visually makes it difficult to determine “who is who.” In other words, not only here, but also in other countries, dogs with a square head and a powerful body are called bull terriers.

Mixed Bull Terrier and Rottweiler

Since 1979, in the United States, where these animals became iconic, they began to keep terrible statistics on bull terrier attacks on people. It turned out that 43% of all fatal dog attacks were attributed to them. It turned out that bull terriers are extremely touchy and vindictive. Thus, 94% of attacks on children occurred because babies were screaming or crying loudly, while for other breeds this figure was 42%.

But the statistics turned out to be more scary deaths– three out of ten attacks ended in tragedy. However, the investigation of all these cases showed that in 84% of these incidents the owners were to blame for not taking action. necessary precautions. But the real monsters, who killed in seven cases out of ten, were half-breeds from a bull terrier and a Rottweiler.

Diseases

Despite their menacing appearance, bull terriers get sick more often than other dogs. Among them is developed hereditary nephritis, caused by small and poorly developed kidneys. As a result, the level of protein in the urine increases sharply, leading to the death of animals within three years. However, modern medicine allows these dogs to live up to 6 or even 8 years. Another problem with white bull terriers is deafness in one or two ears. They also suffer from heart disease and suffer greatly skin allergies on detergents, dust and mold.

Jaw lock

There is a common myth among people that bull terriers have physiological mechanism"jaw lock" or " death grip". However, as numerous studies have shown, they have nothing special either in muscle or in bone structure No. And although they can bite a cat or small dog and do not unclench their teeth, despite the efforts of people, it is only a matter of natural strength. The easiest way to open the jaw is with a broken ampoule of ammonia, the smell of which these dogs cannot stand. “Don't try to manually release the tooth clutch when the bull terrier has grabbed the victim,” says dog trainer Mike Stevenson of Chicago, “a stupid idea. If there is no ammonia, use a stick as a lever.”

Allow cannot be prohibited

US legislation is considered the most effective. If accidents regularly occur due to the fault of bull terriers, they are simply banned. Such restrictions apply in many states and are a good warning for those regions where these dogs are allowed. Owners are automatically held legally liable for injuries caused by their animals. Owners are also required to buy expensive policies with liability up to $300,000, and insurance companies require special restrictive measures. It is interesting that in England, where weapons for personal use are prohibited, bull terriers began to be used for street attacks for the purpose of property gain. In this case, the owner is involved in criminal liability like a robber with a gun.

Heroes

There are real heroes among bull terriers. For example, a dog named Vila saved 32 people, 29 dogs, 3 horses and even one cat during his service in the police. And the bull terrier Deboy defended his family from a bandit, receiving three bullets. He died, but never let go of the criminal’s stranglehold on his throat. They wrote in American newspapers about the dog Lilly, who carried her unconscious owner to people after he lost his leg as a result of an accident on railway. There are a great many such stories in the world.

Representatives of the breed have a clearly expressed prey drive. This is why sometimes a child is seen as a potential victim, resulting in cases of attacks on children. In general, the dog is considered a good pet, but in Norway its keeping is prohibited.

American Pit Bull Terrier. This dog is a real terror to man. Meanwhile, most fears are in vain. Pit bulls were bred from early bulldogs and terriers specifically to fight other dogs. In this they really have no equal. This is a strong breed, capable of fighting to the end and winning no matter what. Today, however, pit bulls are unfortunately the symbol of dog-related crime.

Don't consider this good-natured pet as a deadly enemy. True, it was banned in Miami-Dade County, Florida, the Canadian province of Ontario and some countries.

Thus, if the country does not strictly prohibit the ownership of dangerous breeds of dogs, a person can keep such a pet, strictly observing the rules of restrictions on ownership, walk dogs correctly and be sure to muzzle them public places.
