That bull terrier and pitbull lover says
I have two bull terriers a white one named Honky (Male) and a black white and brindle one named pebbles (female) and they are so cute and energetic.
Mark Mullis says
Going with the traditional English names: Winston was our first Bully. He lived to be almost 11. Dudley was our second Bully. He lived to be 13. And our most recent Bully was named Stanley (who we just lost 3 weeks ago). He lived to be between 15 and 16. Our next bully, if it is a male, will be Luka or Boris. The approximately 35-40 years I have spent with Bull Terriers has most assuredly made my life better in every way.

I should add these… Von, Clint, Fritz and Heizenburgh!
