I actually wanted one at one point, and I became very well-versed in its pedigrees and history (not as much as I am with retrievers).<br /><br />You can read the analysis here, if you're interested: http://retrieverman.wordpress.com/2009/01/12/why-are-bull-terriers-so-inbred/<br /><br />And it is exactly as you say. This breed went through all sorts of changes. When UK banned ear cropping, they had to inbreed to get the erect ear. Actually, the first modern bull terrier wasn't born in 1917. From him, all modern dogs descend.<br /><br />But what amazes me is the denial. I was accused of not knowing the breed history on a forum, when all I used as source were their breed club's official histories!<br /><br />These people don't understand historiography at all.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
