Miniature Bull Terrier Breed Summary
Intelligent, Comical, Happy, Stubborn and Loving
These dogs are a tiny version of their larger relative the Bull Terrier. They are discussed as being easier to manage, both due to their size and personalities. They are very loyal and loving by nature and love to take part in all aspects of family living.
They do need a lot of exercise however, their size means that they are happy to live in an apartment so long as they get plenty of walks and playtime. They can get bored very easily, so do better when they have something to occupy them.
Fun Fact: They don't require a large amount of grooming, meaning they are a cheaper breed to keep!

As these guys have Terrier in them, they tend to be fairly stubborn, meaning they're not necessarily the best option for first time owners. They require a lot of training and need to be taught their place in the pack!

This means they need someone to be home with them most of the day.
