That’s impressive that he can be a personal protection dog but be so well trained that he behaves himself like such a gentleman at the groomer.

[@therose4459]

That's the trained show dog in him. I've never met a show dog that wasn't incredibly well behaved.

[@purplezucchinis]

As a proper PPD should.

Absolute tanks. they might not run fast, but there isn't much that will stop them once they start. On the other hand, while very brutish, they are absolutely loveable. My family has one we rescued, she was 8 or so, very sick, massive eye infection, and was apparently used for breeding. She's currently 10, and at risk of launching her tail into the stratosphere every time we call her name.

[@jend8759]

[@anab25]

Hi there, I'm neurodivergent and I don't usually catch sarcastic tones. So, I honestly believed he was being genuinely simpatethic with her, I think I prefer seeing it my way 😅

[@Doomerang01]

@@anab25 Sarcasm doesn't necessarily mean "cruel" or negative. He was just being playfully teasing, as he knew she wasn't really hurt and was making a fuss over something trivial.

[@user-pu4lv6pr5v]

​@@anab25 I am not neurodivergent and I thought the same. Didn't really sound sarcastic to me either. Sounded more like sympathy one would show based on social norm of behavior, with awkward tone that often come about through lack of relatability for the sympathizer. Why such form of sympathy often end up sounding sarcastic, and in some cases actually are.

[@Atomiclightning]

@@Doomerang01 But she's not making a fuss over something trivial. It is genuinely frustrating to ruin your manicure you just got done. Now she'll need to see the nailartist to fix it, waste her time and probably even money on top of that. Every good partner would be sympathetic, no need for sarcasm. And I don't believe he was sarcastic, just genuinely felt bad for her.

[@hothotheat3000]

A neighbor has one, and I’ll admit to being nervous when I first met him. He trotted around me to smell me, then plopped down on my feet and looked up like “you gonna pet me or what?”

[@little_misscrafty]

Staffies and bull terriers are like compact low running tornados made of bricks and pure love 😂💖

[@lupisvolk2420]

Yes, a few years ago we had an absolute unit of a staffy come to the dog park. Sweet boy but he did nearly throw me onto my ass as he took one of my legs out as he ran. My pup would go to do a play now when he'd go by her but she chose life every time because he was a walking slab of meat bricks.

[@aboutface9392]

I adopted a Staffie/Bulldog last month and have fallen under the spell of this speedy powerhouse.

[@emmarichardson965]

This is possibly the best description of staffies and bull terriers that I have ever heard, and I am so happy I read it. 😂😂

[@nicolakunz231]

This is a remarkably accurate description.

[@little_misscrafty]

This year at Crufts a rescue staffie named Stella won the category Hero dog. She is the 1st staffie to be trained as a police dog in UK and has impressive drug, money and guns recovery record. Stella retired from the police force this year, but she is great positive example of the breed. 💖

[@bethanymcmurtrey9542]

You know, Vanessa is one of the last people I thought would freak out over breaking a nail, which is why her reaction was so funny.

[@AccidentallyOnPurpose]

She didn't break it so much as dremeled off the polish. 🤣

[@annebishop9634]

Well, she obviously takes very good care of her nails.

[@Jay41]

It’s different when you JUST get them done lol

[@DivaViews]

I felt her pain on that one, the heartbreak!

[@Choshako]

Same, for someone who works with her hands a lot, I would have figured manicures and such would be impractical for her.

[@isabellacarta1120]

"Thank you lady. May I have a cup of tea after such relaxing time?"

[@shiboof]

LOVE LOVE LOVE this breed. Just the sweetest and second only to Boxers for comedy.

[@DiamondLil]

I love his air of injured dignity in the happy hoodie. He is rising above her insolence!

[@Impalingthorn]

Oh no, definitely not. Trust me, Bull Terriers all share the same brain; he's probably more tolerantly curious as to what the point of the hoodie was and assumes it's some sort of a game or is putting blind trust in her. Bull Terriers love people more than other dogs inherently and if anything he's probably enjoying it.

[@wiseone1013]

My dad calls them landsharks. I've seen very gentle friendly ones too, all about how they are raised (conditioned).

This is one of the breeds I could never own, just too intense. Potatoe seems like a very well behaved gentleman.

[@theanswerisowl]

honestly, i'm not so sure these kinds of dogs should be bred anymore....Potatoe seems super sweet and all, but as she said, in the wrong hands, such dogs can cause serious injury because they are so muscular and have been bred for aggression. i think this breed is already forbidden in my country, tho not sure.

[@libbyjensen1858]

I used to work in a dog kennel that did boarding and daycare. Over the years we worked with two Bull Terriers. Both of them were the SWEETEST, most well natured dogs in the group! Both of them were fun loving, very kind to every dog, including small breeds, and just LOVED everyone who worked in the kennel. My guess is (after hearing your commentary about the breed) both dogs had excellent owners who worked with them. Potatoe is just adorable!

[@kaidevaleria2531]

I love them. I love the way they run and both the front legs go together. They are so funny

[@kimberlybabin3253]

I also worked in a doggie daycare/boarding place and we had the SWEETEST bull terrier girl! Her name was Eggy and to this day is the most perfect name I’ve ever heard for a dog😭 She really was an Egg💜

[@vinregret]

That’s wonderful! I also work at a daycare and we have one bull terrier who is spoiled by his mom who thinks he can do no wrong and has never disciplined him. He’s a massive a hole

[@bear532]

My cousin had one and he was truly a giant amongst other bull terriers (I’ve yet to see a bigger one). His appearance and nature was such a juxtaposition. He was a unit and a truly scary looking dog, yet he was so gentle and loving. I never saw him show any aggression towards people. The only time he did was when he’d see another dog pee on his spot or a cat, he really didn’t like cats. That’s the only time he’d ever bark, but man when he did, it was something else, you could feel his bark/growl resonate throughout your body. My cousin had a baby a few years before the bull terrier passed and man seeing him with the baby was something else. You could see just how much he loved my little nephew. He was so gentle, careful, and was so incredibly happy just being around him. He had such a good heart. Man now I miss that lovable stinky goofball :(.

[@mollyoxy]

I have a mini bull terrier and she LOVES attention from people, as if i don't give her enough 😂 some people are scared of her at first glance but they always come around when they see how sweet she is

[@veronikavolhejnova5036]

Our neigbour had one, when I was a kid. This breed was quite rare in my country then and he was in the spotlight wherever he went. But because of his looks, no one dared to pet him - except me :-) I was little , and my granny almost had a heart attack when I beelined for the new dog on the block! But Tonda, as he was called, was a very well behaved dog, and he saw his owner knew me, and I was just a little puppy for him then, and besides, he loved scritches, so I was allowed to pet him whenever we met and he even waited for me sometimes, when he saw me coming 🙂

[@Impalingthorn]

I can attest. I have a 10 year old named Lucy. They are energetic, wild, and hyper loving, which combined with their strength makes them a hassle. They're like incredibly strong children and she definitely drove me nuts when she was younger. Nowadays she drives me nuts for a different reason: Her medical conditions. In her old age she's calmed down, but she has so many things going on that aren't her fault at all. I love Lucy to death, but I don't think I could own another bull terrier after her. They're TOO much like children, to the point that I've worried more about this dog than any other animal in my entire life.

[@antiquegirl6505]

A neighbor had two. I learned that they also love to clown 🤡 around, do all kinds of silly, to get laughs, and attention. The littlest one (45 #) did enjoy zooming around the yard and tumbling like a stunt man on a movie set. He would then shake himself off, and wait for the praise & applause. The bigger guy (60#) was notorious for hide & seek. It was fun to "not" see a 60 pound dog behind a 12" tall plant pot, especially with his butt sticking out one side. The owner admitted they could get stubborn, but were always funny also.

My family had a bull terrier when I was a kid. We were warned bull terriers were hyperactive. Rosie was a dud. Favorite thing to do was nap. Would decide in the middle of a walk that she was done and you could not go any further with her. She would occasionally get the zoomies, but after a few spins and a couple runs around the room, she'd calm down. Absolutely gentle and would lick your ear off.

[@ashleiamber9653]

Thanks ya’ll for sharing your stories: Here’s mine. I used to work at a doggy daycare and we had a bull terrier named Bella that LOVED to bark at the dogs on the other side of the play yard through the fence. She would run back and forth barking and barking even if there was other dogs to play with on her side. She stayed with us for a week and she ended up rubbing her flat snout against the wood fence so many times it was bleeding. 😭 We had to leash walk her after that. I have a lot of other silly stories about Bull Terriers and their wild nature, but this one stands out the most.

[@louisfeurino7182]

My wife and I have an English Bull Terrier named Blanche. Blanche is nine and a half. Great dogs to have; they just love their families. Fiercely protective against anyone who tries to get within their “zone” of safety. I can bathe Blanche and brush her teeth without issue. She will not let me clip her nails. That is a task for professionals. I have had a lot of dogs and she is easily my favorite - stubborn, funny, independent (as long as you are near by) and, at my age, probably my last dog. She holds my heart.

Bull terrier 🥰 My relatives had one when I was growing up and I never left their place without paw marks on my clothes. 😆 Creamo crossed the rainbow bridge nearly 20 years ago and I still miss that 4 legged lunatic.🌈

[@melaniekendall4903]

Rainbow bridge?? Are you a leprechaun

[@lipstickzombie4981]

​@@melaniekendall4903 Just a term for pet lovers that a pet has died. No leprechauns involved, I don't think they would like the Philippines.

[@melaniekendall4903]

@@lipstickzombie4981 bit of a weird thing to say. Why would you call your dog creamo 🤪

[@lipstickzombie4981]

​@@melaniekendall4903 Well, it's not my dog but it's my uncle's. And Creamo is a brand of cookie in my place. 😊

I LOVE this breed, their face shape is so unique! Sweet little short cakes!

I always root for the dogs to behave well. This guy was great!

[@BomageMinimart]

WOOT! I love bull terriers! They are such interesting looking creatures!

[@Marissa_loves_Jesus]

He’s such a cute little potato too!!! Very well mannered and so sweet! 🥰

[@r2dezki]

I love these breeds, they're like underdogs where they've been bread for horrible things but they manage to flourish in the most gentlest way!

[@RexytheRexy]

That face when you're shaving Potato's paws. Gaaaaaaah! I called these the "Zeppo Marx Dogs" when I was younger. So many breeds to love.

I miss my lovely old English bull terrier what a fabulous funny protective pet and part of the family yes we miss Elsa

[@tomhorsley6566]

Looks almost exactly like the pup a friend of mine had many decades ago. That dog's favorite play time activity was being picked up and thrown (into something soft, mind you). He'd coming running back with the "do it again" expression on his face.

YOU GOT A ENGLISH BULLTERRIER!!!!!!!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 Our bullterrier died, she was 12, but as old as she was, the high energy and clown behaviour NEVER ends❤😂

[@alllifematters]

What a sweet, gentle boy!

[@QuantumWaltz]

Gosh, I love the bully breeds. They are all such wonderful characters. Potatoe is a very good boy!

[@ca9968]

The best breed ever!!! I had one, a cheeky, crazy, loyal and lovable clown in a dog suit from 1994 to 2007, he was my best friend and a most loved and cherished member of the family...I still miss him daily and always will...

[@saxyliz]

I’m so happy you did a bull terrier! I own 2 bull terriers, and they are the funniest, most lovable dog breed. 🥰

[@bcaye]

What a handsome and well bred guy!

[@rioseven7306]

I had a bull terrier. So cute. Potato. Adorable.

[@stevenfrost6441]

Potato's demeanor just like his resume is impressive! 👍🐶♥

[@GunNutproductionsOG]

As a Canadian I always see them as a “Don Cherry dog” cause they are such a unique breed you don’t see casual dog owners have

[@lupisvolk2420]

In Australia they're known as "Pig dogs" due to their use in pig hunting.

[@Adria2347]

My sister has a bull terrier, she is the most friendliest dog I have ever met in my life, I love her so much. ❤

[@ethancntower8850]
