Nasveti: za bullterierja pravijo, da je gladiator med psi. Potrebuje veliko gibanja, pozornosti in psihično stabilnega človeka, ki ga bo znal vzgojiti v prijetnega psa. Zelo pomembna je zgodnja socializacija, zelo se priporoča vsaj osnovno šolanje. Obožujejo vodo, dolge, aktivne sprehode s svojim lastnikom in polno mero crkljanja. Pasma je zelo podvržena gluhosti, predvsem beli bullterierji, zato je zelo priporočljivo, da bodoči lastnik kupi testiranega mladička, po možnosti testiranih staršev. Pomemben je tudi karakter staršev, ki ne smejo kazati znake agresivnosti. Priporočamo nakup pri preverjenih in vestnih vzrediteljih.

Predstavitev
Pogosto pravijo, da je Bull terier "posebna pasma, za posebne ljudi". Kljub značaju, ki ga odlikuje energičnost, zanimivost, igrivost in pogosto norčavost, pasma ni primerna za vsakogar saj njihova vzgoja zahteva veliko potrpežljivosti, odločnosti, potrpežljivosti, jeklenih živcev, pa še na potrpežljivost ne smemo pozabiti.
Bull terier je bil prvic predstavljen na Birminghamski pasji razstavi leta 1862. Razstavljal ga je James Hinks, prodajalec psov, ki ga stroka smatra za prvega vzreditelja bull terierjev. Hinks je pri "ustvarjanju" bull terierja križal mnoge pasme in tipe psov, najbolj verjetno pa je da so glavne poteze prispevali Bulldog, (že izumrli) Angleški beli terier in Dalmatinec.
Šolanje bull terierja ni majhen zalogaj, v večini primerov lahko trdimo prav nasprotno. Velikokrat se obnašajo kot nagajivi otroci in izgleda, kot da bi zanalašč jezili svoje lastnike, ki pa jim njihovo obnasanje večijnoma takoj oprostimo. Njihovo opravičilo v obliki oproščujočega, sramežljivega nasmeha ima neverjetno blagodejen učinek na dvignjen krvni pritisk.
Bull terierji so družinski psi in so nesrečni, če niso v stiku z družino. če ne načrtujete da bo pes dejansko živel z vami, potem Bull terier ni najboljša izbira pasme za vas.
Zaposlene družine, kjer so ljudje večino dneva od doma niso najprimernejše okolje za mladega bulčka, saj ta potrebuje nego, hranjene in ogromno pozornosti in crkljanja. Mladiček, ki ga pustite samega, bo žvečil – zdolgočaseni odraščajoči bulčki to pogosto počnejo. Ploščice, zidovi, vrata, pohištvo, nič ni varno pred zobki zdolgočasenega malega bulčka. Poleg materialne škode in zdravstvenih nevarnosti, lahko samota povzroči veliko škodo tudi na mladičkovem temperamentu. Odrasel pes, se pogosto brez težav prilagodi urniku zaposlene družine in svoje spalne navade prilagodi odsotnosti lastnikov.
Bull terier se izredno naveže na svojo družino in na splošno zelo uživa v družbi ljudi. Znajo biti čudoviti z otroki, kadar se z njimi dela pravilno, tako s strani otrok kot odraslih. So neutrudljivi prijatelji v igri, tekli bodo za žogami, hodili za otroci ter ure in ure opazovali njihovo igro.
Bull terier mora biti šolan in celo najbolj leni lastniki ga bodo morali naučiti vsaj osnovne poslušnosti. Učenje hišne čistoče mora biti prva stvar v mladičkovem učnem načrtu in se mora začeti čimprej (po možnosti že pri vzreditelju). Pomemben del šolanja pri tej pasmi predstavlja tudi vodljivost na vrvici, saj je sprehajanje kateregakoli psa, ki se ne "razume" z vrvico lahko pravo garanje, pri Bullterierju pa poleg garanja tvegate še potencialno podaljšanje rok.
Potrebe po gibanju so različne od psa do psa. Nekateri uživajo v neskončnih sprehodih, medtem ko bodo drugi zadovoljni že z divjanjem po hiši. Nepisano pravilo pravi, da sta dva 30 minutna sprehoda dnevno dovolj za večino Bullterierjev, se bodo pa z veseljem prilagodili navadam lastnikov, saj je navsezadnje človešla družba tisto kar si res želijo.
Nekateri bulčki govorijo! Radi brundajo, mrmrajo in spučajo različne zvoke in s tem zabavajo sebe in vas. To "pogovorno" vokaliziranje NI RENčANJE in ga za takega tudi ne smemo smatrati.
Bullterier mora biti prijazne narave, ljubeč do vseh ljudi. V odnosu do ostalih (predvsem majhnih) živali, mu nikoli ne moremo povsem zaupati, čeprav so ponavadi do njih povsem ravnodušni.
Še nekaj modrosti o bulčkih , sestavljenih iz prispevkov lastnikov bulčkov na eni večjih spletnih Bullterier Skupnosti. Iz spodaj napisanega boste ugotovili, da trditev o posebni pasmi in posebnih ljudeh prekleto drzi. Za tiste, ki se boste med branjem spraševal,i kaj zaboga je hucklebutt, je to TULE super razloženo.
Your blue carpet begins to change colour (no matter how many times you vacuum). When that "alien" looking pink and white face looks up at you eating some toast for breakfast and implores: "hey Dad, I know you can't eat all of that toast yourself". All your guest handbags get searched for who knows what, maybe sweeties Your guest wants to know how his wet ,slobbery tennis ball got in her handbag (maybe he is not searching but planting tennis balls, or both ……) He drops his tennis ball in your lap after he dipped it in his water bowl You get waken up in the morning with a cold wet nose nudging your eye. The bullies have their own tree and xmas ornaments in "their room". You build your bullies a room of their own complete with tiled floor for muddy feet, fridge, counters, special gates, access to the yard. You follow your bullies in all kinds of weather at all odd hours in hot pink rainboots, pj's, a flashlight and a pooper scooper to prevent them from snacking. You own 8 crates…but have 4 bullies! There are only two kinds of dog toys in the entire house – Kongs and Nylabones! Your kids know how to block, tuck and hug walls automatically when the bullies are hucklebutting in the house. Your kids don't even flinch in the face of other breeds at a dog show. People apologize for their dogs gently sniffing your kids face and you just reply – that's ok… he lives with Bull Terriers. Your two year old can get bowled over by a bull terrier in the yard at top speed and get right back up like nothing happened! Also – the gifts under the tree FROM the bullies to the family members are a dead give away as to what they destroyed that year. For instance, this year Benjamin is giving Chris and I a new set of sheets and pillow cases. He is giving MariaLena and Christopher socks and panties. Meadow is giving my kids new stuffed toy bullies. Sequel is giving my son a couple of new wooden trains and replacing some wooden tracks. This year Bella is not buying presents. She feels at the ripe old age of 12 1/2 having survived my singlehood, marraige, pregnancies, moves, 2 kids, 3 additional bullies and a slew of rescues. Being graced with her presence is quite enough. The dog you have thinks that all the gifts under the tree are his/hers You see a dog carrying the plastic container that should contain the xmas tree Everything plastic or leather you own has teeth marks in it Guest are looking for their shoes after taking their boots off Friends with purses have articles missing in them You have to stand still in the house while observing a wild dog running around the fireplace through the corridor and back and making 360's along the way You have an egg shape face in your neck licking your ears or cuddling You have Elf Bowling on your computer because they LOVE the sound those obnoxious little elves make during the game! You start worrying that you might be fired because you keep going out to the bull-terrier yahoo group at work because you're afraid you might miss out on the antics of another member's bull terrer…. When you have no space in your bed and When you try to make space you hear sounds like a old man that is being killed and The Jack Russell Terrier is regulary used as "Kong"… When other dog owners are more interested in your bully then their own dog. When mom calls me just to see how the dog is and can I put him on the phone so she can talk to him When your dog gets soooo excited about a teeny tiny liver snap that he will do just about anything, stupid dog trick and all, just for this morsel of food The one time you leave him uncrated, alone, for five minutes to run to the neighbors and you come home and there is a hole bigger then the dog in the kitchen. (literally five minutes! it was like he had it in for the kitchen wall since I brought him home) Your friends give you strange looks when you explain why you have to hide tennis balls in the fridge 😉 You get up in the morning–clogged with a vicious cold, aware that you are into old age,choking and blowing into a Kleenex,and—your bully does something utterly delightful, and you laugh in spite of your suffering, and feel much better. You have his photo on your cell phone as wallpaper You buy a bully cover for your cell phone on ebay. Your bathroom doorframe is tiled because one day Remy gnawed the wood from the floor up as high as he could reach. You invest in sturdy, quilted bedspreads to use as washable sofa covers. Any cone flowers in your yard now grow outside His Royal Enclosure. Bullies love cone flowers (echinacia). Carpets have holes in strange places Wooden chairs have "sculptured" legs and even a couple of arms after a certain bully learned how to get up in chairs on rollers Any furniture with enough room to get a tennis ball underneath is surrounded by boards and barricades The house is littered with supposedly indestructible doggie toys You never go around in bare or stocking feet any more due to the presence of said toys, crumbs, misc. tree and bush parts and other unidentifiable items on the floor The doctor is ready to turn your husband in for spousal abuse due to your assortment of black and blue spots from being used as a bully bowling pin There's mud on the ceiling in the workshop from bully runs through the doggy door on a rainy day All the windows in the car are covered with gummy nose prints All the wastebaskets in the house either have lids or are hidden in a cupboard You never can open a cupboard/fridge door without them pushing you aside so that they also can see what is inside. You never can work in the kitchen without them laying on your feet. You never can sit typing at the computer without them getting themselves entangled with the computer wires. You have his photo on your cell phone as wallpaper You are packing for holiday and he jumps on the bed and leave paw marks al over you clothes your dog lets one rip and your guests suddenly claim they have urgent business to attend to at home. everything on your tables and benches is pushed right to the back cause you know it'll get stolen. you have no blanket at night cause your dog decided to pull off a hucklebutt on your bed at 3am. your in-laws politely ask (while cringing) if the dog will be attending the Christmas do. you walk out of the shower to find toilet paper strewn around the house and your dog has that "it wasn't me" look on its face despite the half eaten toilet roll in its mouth. your dog insists on sneaking up behind you and doing the "roo-roo" bark just for a laugh. you find you cannot leave for work cause you have a dog latched onto the tongue of your shoe. you are awakened in the morning from the tailed banging against your head then you bash your head against the wall trying to get away cause you just realised you've been hugging your dogs butt all night. (you know they do that out of plain old sarcastic spite!) You get a call about a "Bully Collectible Alert" and you have to run out immediately before they are all gone! Your Christmas cards "have" to have a bully theme! As well as your wrapping paper! You have crates in every room, just in case 😉 You have "special" dog toys, bully proof! You are glued to the tv when a Target commercial is aired. You watch dog shows even though you know your favorite breed won't win. You have bruised shins from hucklebutting accidents. You know what the word hucklebutt means…. Silence in the house is a bad thing! What can he be up to?! Your dog picked your boyfriend. He didn't like the last one (who then had to be immediately dismissed) You've called in to work for an emergency, explaining that the dog fell off the bed, you're at the emergency vet and you will have to tend to him after you get home (at work, these emergency days are usually reserved for deaths, births and other major unexpected things) You won't risk having a Christmas tree…period Your friends always ask "how's the dog". Not sure if they're expecting a behavior report, or if they just want to know if he's still living here. The house needs to be cleaned, dishes need to be done, trash needs to be taken out and you spend the day snoozing on the couch with your bullie just cuz he looks like he needs a snuggle. When you put a santa hat on top of your bully's head for the first time and she starts the most amazing hucklebutt that you aren't sure if it is in fact a hucklebutt or panic, but you can't get the hat off of her to find out because you can't catch her and therefore the hucklebutt won't stop – then you dive for her when she comes by you the 6th time and somehow snatch the hat off of her head after which she twirls in mid-air and grabs the hat in her mouth, surprising you so you let go, and she tears all through the house with the hat in her mouth, then stops exhausted and laughing her head off…. When you just don't even bother putting up a tree at all! You give up having clean furniture, clean or at least dry floors (why can't they just "drink" water instead of attacking it?), Everyone thinks you're crazy, yet you wouldn't have it any other way!!!! Your carpet shows obvious signs of regular "hucklebutting" You have an economy sized (6 lbs) of peanut butter for kong-stuffing. You are so obsessed with your dogs behavior, your family, friends and co-workers start to think you have gone off the edge because of your inability to talk about anything other than your furbaby. All your Christmas ornaments are on the TOP half of the Christmas tree- above nose level!
