Sure! Take a Gund dog and put it in the washer. Make sure it’s hot. Afterwards, put it in the dryer, also on hot. This should shrink the scary big stuffed Gund to smaller size. My mother once did this to a wool sweater of mine when I was about 10 years old, so I know this works.

On a more serious note, there is such a thing as a "Miniature Bull Terrier." I believe they’re a little smaller than a Beagle (correct me if I’m wrong…I’ve only seen one in real life and haven’t read the standard lately), and look the same as the regular bull terriers. Also, there are the Staffordshire Bull Terriers. They are smaller than you’re run-of-the mill APBT or AmStaff. I can’t recall exactly how big, I’m not a huge fan of the Bull breeds (though I do love the personalilty of Pits). Hope that helps start your search! Emily

I once knew a purebred ADBA registered American Pit Bull Terrier who was no bigger than a Beagle and weighed under 25 lbs as an adult.

The APBT is normally a performance bred dog, with 25 to 65 pounds being the typical weight variences. Breeding for size over other characteristics creates structural and tempermental problems. I can’t see a "mini" APBT having much value beyond being a novelty, and in that case you have a handful of other purposefully-bred small bull breeds to choose from.

They were recognized a couple or few years ago. Cute little guys, with the sturdiness of the BT but small enough that a handball is reasonable. … nfx v2.7 [C0000] Blest be the bric-a-brac that still survives

Patterdale Terriers (aka Fell Terriers) look somewhat like a small APBT, but weigh in at only about 14-15#. There’s a variety of coat colors/types, but the smooth coated ones look most like a miniature APBT.
