That is a gross over-generalization. Of course, terriers, as a general rule, are more dog aggressive than some other breeds. But to say all terriers are quite dog aggressive is simply not true.

Don't tell that to my terrier pack, currently sleeping all over each other on the couch.

If that were the case, myself and the thousands of other people who do breed rescue for terriers across the country would be completely unable to do our jobs, wouldn't we? Obviously, we take precautions such as crating and temperment testing. But in the vast majority of cases, the dogs are just fine with each other. I have had up to fourteen rescue terriers in my house at once.

That having been said, bull terriers are not the dog for everyone. They are strong-willed and can be stubborn, and as a rule, do have a tendency to be more dog aggresive than other breeds. I have a customer with three bull terriers, and they all get along fabulously. I have another customer with one bull terrier, and she says she could never get another dog.

If you can find a rescue, breeder or breed club near you, I would spend some time around them before deciding. Of course, that should be the case with any breed one considers.
