Origin
During the era of the British Raj in India, Bull Terriers were introduced to the northwestern Indian subcontinent, which now includes the modern republics of India and Pakistan. In colonial India, the Bull Terrier breed soared in popularity,[2] with the Bull Terrier Club of India being established in Calcutta.[3] Bull Terriers were crossed with local breeds to develop the Gull Terrier, often called the Indian Bull Terrier and also now the Indian Bull Terrier.[1][4] The Gull Terrier is a medium-sized dog with short, smooth fur which resembles that of the Staffordshire Bull Terrier.[5] These dogs were originally used in blood sports such as bull baiting, and dog fighting - a bloody entertainment introduced by the British to the Indian subcontinent.[6] When the blood sport was made illegal across the Empire, the Gull Terriers were used as guard dogs.Шаблон:Efn-ua In colonial India, some breeders crossed the Gull Terrier with the Bully Kutta, naming the progeny the "Gull Dong", which "is celebrated in India and Pakistan for its speed and tenacity".
Health
