The muzzle must be strong square and a firm lower jaw with a
powerful bite. There must be forty – two teeth and the upper teeth should bite
firmly over the lower teeth in a scissor bite. If the lower jaw is too long, we
refer to it as undershot or a fish mouth and if the lower jaw is to short we
call it the parrot – mouth or overshot. When the upper and lower incisors fit
exactly n top of each anther we call it the pincer bite.
For the show the manner how the teeth bite is very
important. For the breeder is it a very
challenge to produce a Bull Terrie with a good arched and a strong lower jaw
with the right bite. The dog’s bite is very important when they judging the dog
but not be over – emphasised when considering the whole dog. The teeth should
be white, strong and fit well into the broad of the mouth. The lips must fit
neatly around the teeth.
