Bull Terrier | Pedigree Chums™ The Dog Bingo Game

Loading

The Bull Terrier comes from bulldog-and-terrier crosses, mixing a bulldog's strength with a terrier's speed and determination. In our family tree, its ancestors include the Bulldog, the English White Terrier and the Dalmatian. It later helped make the Fox Terrier and relatives of the Jack Russell.
