  • What Makes It a Miniature Bull Terrier?
    What makes it a Miniature Bull Terrier? By Tracey Butchart After reading the Breed Standard for the Bull Terrier and the Miniature Bull Terrier, you would be forgiven for thinking that the latter is just a small version of the former. In reality however, the Mini, as it is affectionately known, is genetically distinct from its bigger relative, unlike, for example, the Poodles and Dachshunds with their different size varieties. It was in the 1860s that James Hinks of Birmingham created the all-white Bull Terrier, which was noticeably different from the motley bunch of “Bull-and-Terriers” that had been around decades and who were so successful in the dog fighting pits of the time. This new “Bull Terrier” was elevated from its dark and violent past emerging as a gentleman’s companion. In fact, according to Hinks’ biographer, Kevin Kane, it was bred as a fashion accessory for the new middle classes, albeit one which symbolised power and masculinity. Despite the fact that they all had a distinctive white coat, there was significant variation in size among early Bull Terriers. At the famous International Show of Dogs at Islington in 1864, the Bull Terrier entries were divided into different classes determined by size. There were Bull Terriers under 10lbs and Bull Terriers over 10lbs. This weight limit was adjusted to 15lbs three years later and then to 25lbs another 7 years on. Clearly, the larger Bull Terriers were preferred. At the turn of the century there were actually three sizes: large (Standard Bull Terriers); medium (Miniature Bull Terriers) and small (Toy Bull Terriers).

  • The History of Staffordshire Bull Terriers
    “This article is the first in a series to be published in The Stafford on breed history to mark the 60th anniversary of Kennel Club recognition in 1995. It mainly concentrates on the modern era, but not exclusively. The article first appeared in the Kennel Gazette in October 1987 and was part of a history of Southern Counties SBT Society.” The Stafford Knot has made every reasonable effort to contact the copyright holder of this article. The author, A.W.A. Cairns is deceased. We have been unable to contact next of kin. Although in the context of Kennel Club recognition the Staffordshire Bull Terrier is a relatively 'new breed', on the basis of the many drawings available, a Stafford-like animal existed at the turn of the 19th Century. A classic example is "Crib and Rosa", a painting by Abraham Cooper, circa 1816. For almost seventy years "Rosa" was taken as the model bulldog, but the modern bulldog bears little resemblance to her. Allowing for a slight prejudice, the only modern dog of this type is the Staffordshire Bull Terrier. An engraving of "Crib and Rosa" by Scott bears the caption - "Engraved by John Scott. Published in 1817". "Rosa" was by the Honourable Berkeley-Cravens "Old Bowler" out of Bowlems tulip-eared bitch, by Paddington Jones' "Hoppy" out of the famous Staffordshire bitch. "Crib" was got by Mrs Halls "Nimble" out of "Rosa". It is not suggested That the 'famous Staffordshire bitch' was a Staffordshire Bull Terrier, but it could be concluded that animals of that type, existed in that county before 1816.

  • The Bull and Terrier Breeds
    THE BULL AND TERRIER BREEDS AMERICAN STAFFORDSHIRE TERRIER (AM STAFF) Color Variations: All variations, though mostly white, liver or black and tan is not encouraged. Height: 18-22 inches Weight: 55-65 lb Over the past 70 years, careful breeding has produced today's American Staffordshire Terrier who is affectionate, reliable, and an especially good dog for children. Dog aggressive tendancies have been virtually eliminated by careful breeding. The American Staffordshire Terrier are intelligent and excellent guardians. They are happy, outgoing, stable, and confident dogs who makes wonderful family pets. The American Staffordshire Terrier is adaptable to country or city living, the only thing that will break his spirit and his heart is lack of his owner's fond attention. BULL TERRIER Color Variations: White, brindle, black, red, fawn tri-color Height: 21-22 inches Weight: 52-62 lb The Bull Terrier is known as the champion of the canine race. It is the result of English breeders, crossing old fighting dogs with Bulldogs and Terriers, among them white English Terriers which are now extinct and even Dalmatians. This breed has an egg shaped head when viewed from the front, strongly built and muscular. It is a very friendly, affectionate dog, which is good with children although it requires firm handling and careful training. The Bull Terrier comes in two varieties, the colored and the solid white. They have tiny triangular eyes, and short erect ears. The Bull Terrier is happiest when they are with the people they love. The closer the better.
