|
built, muscular, symmetrical and active.
They are also known as the "gladiator of the canine race".
They have a keen determined and intelligent expression, full of fire but of sweet disposition and amenable to discipline.
They are playful, fun-loving, sensitive, and affectionate dogs who make wonderful pets and companions, despite their tough appearance.
They have tiny triangular eyes, a very characteristic egg-shaped head, roman nose and short erect ears.
They are happiest when they are with the people they love: the closer, the better.
The BT loves games with a ball or other toys and all sorts of outdoor activities and has high exercise needs.
