Proper EBT Colors and Codes
  • I can't tell you how many times I've seen people improperly register their EBT with the wrong color. I think the problem is because most people don't realize just how many color combinations there are within the English Bull Terrier Breed.

    Here's a listing of all the colors within the breed:

  • I think my least favorite color is the fawn. I prefer a dark, deep red.

  • Steve, is Daisy a red and white smut?  Smut is such a strange word.  You think they could have come up with something a little more classy? :)
  • LOL. You're right the word smut doesn't sound all that nice but in reality most Red & White colored EBT's are actually Red Smut and White. There's MANY drop dead gorgeous ones too. Daisy is included in that gorgeous category too because her proper color would be a Red Smut and White (323) due to the black around her muzzle.

  • I think that black really enhances her face.  She IS gorgeous:)  I'm very partial to her eye liner!
  • Me too. She's going to be a gorgeous Bullie! :-bd

  • fawn isnt listed on the akc paper work they give you with the puppy. what if i have a white with a black eye spot I dont follow the rules exactly, claxxton is a white and black brindle but i sure as hell wouldnt put him as that, i just put him as white. lol

  • Many of the colors of the Bull Terrier aren't listed on the AKC registration paperwork. This is why I provide the colors and codes on the registration for all puppies I sell in order to alleviate mistakes. AKC does annotate some of the basic colors on the registration papers. However, they expect that you conduct the proper research to annotate specifics if it's required. The first chart listed at the top depicts all the AKC colors and codes of the bull terrier. If you registered Claxxton as a white on his paperwork it will have him appear to be a pure white verse a white with colored markings. In reality, many make this mistake and it's not a big deal unless you decide on showing and his pedigree is questioned but I'm sure you could always say you made a mistake. If it were me I'd contact AKC and explain to them that you made a mistake and wish to correct it.

    The reason I initiated this thread on the Forum was for this very reason.

  • Wouldn't it be neat to see a solid RED with no white or black on the face and muzzle. The face and head would look so cool. Just my oppinion. I love all 22 color combinations of the Bull Terrier.

  • I second the brindle :D
    Your actions speak so loudly I cannot hear your words.
  • I third the brindle :P Although I would like a deep red as well with no white. That color is so hard to find!
