Very funny, very stubborn, very loving. I threw a ball for my dog once and he ran at full speed, head first into a tree < that was my face! The sound was a loud sickening CRACK and would have killed anything else stone dead. Sykes shook his head, picked up the ball and trotted back tail wagging.
Had just got home with the weekly shop one saturday and was putting stuff away, Sykes was being a pain in the ass sticking his head in all the bags so I told him to "GEDDOUT!" I had a cat at the time and when I went to put the tins of cat food away one was missing. I found it out on the back lawn bitten in half and quite clean. < that again as I frantically examined Sykes' mouth for the many and deep lacerations. Not a scratch! How the heck ...........
When this cat was a kitten it would eat from my Jack russells bowl while he was eating, which didn't bother him at all. Sykes was slightly different though. When this tiny kittens' head came over his bowl, as he was wolfing his grub at typical high speed, he froze, then snapped sideways again, the entire head of the kitten dissapeared in Sykes' mouth. No! I shouted and the kittens' head re-appeared without a mark on it, looking around as if "who put the lights out".
Very entertaining dogs but you better be a strong willed, determined person and physical strength would be very useful. Oh and they do get a taste for a fight, mine would never start one but he would goad animals. He would press his nose through the wire of the ferret cage squinting, until they bit his nose, then he would go for them, grabbing at the wire! I saw him nudging the cat one day with his head trying to get it to swipe him but it just rubbed its head on his, purring loudly and he walked away looking perplexed.

Oh i know the head banging, we have solid wooden frames on our sofa, the amount of times Kizz has been running in circles full throttle, then theres an almighty bang! that would outright kill or at least knock out any other living thing *ouch*
I know if its hurt her though because she comes running to me shocked, tail between legs like "Mum the sofa just hit me" and i have to cuddle her for a second then shes off again barking and spinning.

Its not wonder shes so dumb, i think shes destroyed all her brain cells

This is what happened a couple years ago when Kizzy got over excited and ran full speed into a solid brick wall...

We took the vets advice and did not give her pain-killers because the pain stopped her getting up and trying to run around and play, tsk.

there is no height or weight restriction for standard bullies mine are a nice size not huge at all

Miniature bull terriers have twice as much energy and suffer more health problems than your standards.

Just thought i'd point that out.
