English bull terrier puppies – understanding the breed

Dogs are the loveliest gift to humans from nature. Many still do not know that dogs have their ancestry in wolves. In the early ages when human beings started to hunt and eat together in groups, some wolves used to stay around the community to get access to and eat the leftovers. Slowly and gradually, humans began to deliberately leave food for the wolves and hence, they also started to bond with the humans around. Eventually some of the wolves became friendly enough to be fed by hand. That is when things began to change. Some of the wolves just stayed with humans all the time and became tamed. It was this point that marked the beginning of the most profound friendship between the two species.

Dogs are now such an integral part of human society today that many of us consider them as family. As we already know, loyalty of dogs is unparalleled and every now and then we get a true story that touches our hearts with deep love and gratitude.

Slow and steadily, selective breeding and other scientific methods were developed, which led to the breeds of dogs that we see today. These days, we have a wide array of dog breeds that come in all shapes and sizes, along with different colors and coats. English bull terriers were developed around in the late eighteen hundreds for blood sports. They were a result of selective breeding of old English bull dogs and old English terrier dogs. In the long run though, the parent breeds got lost due to negligence and higher popularity of this new cross-bred variety.

They come in two sizes, which is the Standard English bull terrier and a miniature English bull terrier. They come in a variety of colors.

Now you can find them in a variety of colors ranging from brindle to modern colored.
