Summary
About Border Terrier
Small, sturdy terrier originally bred on the England–Scotland border to hunt foxes. Affectionate, bonded to family, yet independent with strong prey drive. Needs 1–2 hours of daily exercise, secure fencing, and kind training. Wiry, weather-resistant coat needs brushing and occasional hand stripping.
About English Bulldog
The English Bulldog is a compact, muscular companion with a broad chest, wrinkled face and short coat. Calm and affectionate, it bonds closely with families, often adores children, and needs gentle, moderate exercise plus careful lifelong management of breathing, skin and joint health.
