Bull terriers ears are ALWAYS erect other then when they are young puppies.
The BT folks started breeding for a naturally erect ear in order to distance themselves further from the Pit Bull. That was many yrs ago when the two breeds were VERY similar.
The Bull Terrier pup in the above link has a head that is nothing like a Pits. That shaped head is another study to show how breeders have ruined a breed for the sake of looks.

MANY Pits have ears just like that if they aren't cropped. Color and everything about that dog tells me Pit mix.
Bull Terrier? Head, body structure, ears, etc say no way.
Even just in the mix though?
I know the ears are way high on the head...but it's the folding over part that had me thinking Bull Terrier. I know the nose and face shape are way off, but it was just a shot in the dark after looking at some bull terrier pups online.
