Bull Terrier

The Bull Terrier is a dog that cannot be confused with another because of the peculiar "egg" shape of its head. The profile, called "Roman nose", is unique in the world. The body is that of a "gladiator": solid, compact, it is a real ball of muscles. The eyes are small, triangular, sunken, oblique, much closer to the ears than the nose; very dark, they should look almost black. The ears are also small, naturally erect, close together. The limbs are perfectly plump. The thorax is very wide, with well curved ribs (its volume determines the muscular power of the Bull Terrier); it must be located at a height greater than half the height at the withers so that the dog is close to the ground, without looking short on legs.
