Meet Tex, the Bull Terrier.   He can often be spotted, tied up, in front of the house, two doors east of the King City Marketplace, in the centre of the village, on the north-east corner of King Road and Keele Street.   Tex, pictured above with his buddy, Joe, is 16 months old.   He's very friendly and as strong as a bull.   Some may feel that Bull Terriers are an acquired taste, given those beady triangular eyes, big head and snout, and short hair...you either love 'em or hate 'em when it comes to looks.   Tex is very affectionate and muscular.   Joe had to hang on tight to keep Tex from bowling me over.   The name Tex, by the way, is short for Texas and Joe's previous Bull Terrier was called Dallas.   I see a pattern developing.
