hi can anyone help as have been looking at mini bull terrier and cant find anything on temperament. just wondering if anyone has one or had one if they can help me in my research.
I have SBT and alot of kennels have the two together but need more info.
I will email the kennels in due course, but thought id ask here first, as just want to show them in the future

thanks for reading

Minature Bull Terriers arent a new breed(unless I have read your heading wrong).
There seems to be 2 breed clubs...Southern MBT & MBT(website under construction), my suggestion would be to contact them aswell.

Thanks Lexy
i am researching to add the breed to my household, sorry if I didnt put clearly thanks for them I will have a look when they finish construction of websites

Thanks again

The Southern website is ok, just the other one that is under cons.

Miniature Bull Terriers

The link doesn't mention Baer testing, nor the kidney and heart disease that some Bull Terrier minis can be prone to?

I know lots of people with mini bulls, can point you in the right direction if you want to speak to breeders.

>mention Baer testing, nor the kidney and heart disease that some Bull Terrier minis can be prone to?

The breed guide was submitted by a reputable breeder some time ago now. Health tests do not 'stand still' and new problems and tests are added all the time to many breeds. The Guides can be updated to include new problems and recommended tests.

>Health tests do not 'stand still' and new problems and tests are added all the time to many breeds.

To be fair, BAER has been recommended for bull terriers (and minis) for over 15 years ...

And it is included in the Bull Terrier description, so I found it odd that it wasn't mentioned within the Bull Terrier Miniature description.

It's also worth baring in mind that mini' s and regular BT's can also suffer from a poorly understood condition called Spinners. It's undecided ( last time I looked into it ) if its a neurological problem or behavioural, in some dogs they become quite manic and will mutilate their tail, I have even heard stories of some being pts because f it.
If you look on a dedicated Bulli forum you might find more up to date information.
When I looked into the breed for myself some years ago, it did put me off.

thank you for that Celli will defiantly look into that and ask about it too.
