Not to be confused with the American Bulldog, the American Bully has only been around as a canine variety for a few decades, but they’ve grown massively in popularity during that time.

Those who prefer their pets to look traditionally cuter might wonder why, but many parents of American Bullies have become smitten with their pet’s playful spirit and affectionate nature.

The fact that there are four different variations — Pocket, Standard, Classic and XL — means it’s easier to find a pet that’s perfect for different environments, too.

In this guide to the American Bully, you’ll discover that:

  • They were bred from American Pitbulls and Staffordshire Terriers
  • American Bully sizes can range from Pocket to XL
  • They’re prone to suffering from hip dysplasia and skin issues
  • When trained effectively, they’re gentle and affectionate

 

American Bully Breed Overview

When it comes to strength in relation to size, you’ll struggle to find dogs more powerful than an American Bully. These are compact and muscly creatures — especially the American Bully XL — and, as such, need a confident parent to keep them under control.

In the wrong hands, they can certainly be intimidating, but most people who share their lives with a well-trained and socialized American Bully will attest that they’re a lot softer than they look.

They’re also known to be intelligent and receptive to being taught commands, as well as unwaveringly loyal to their parents. This makes daily walks an enjoyable affair — which is good news, as an American Bully needs quite a bit of exercise to tire them out.

Another reason why American Bullies are favored by some parents is that this is a low-maintenance pet. Not only are they unfussy eaters, but their short coats don’t need a huge amount of attention when it comes to grooming.



A vet isn’t just there to cure illnesses — they can also help keep your dog fit and healthy for longer. The tests and examinations that form part of a wellness plan help you stay on top of your pet’s needs.

American Bully Breed History

Is an American bully a Pitbull or a Terrier? The answer is a bit of both — and a whole lot more.

The American Bully is the result of a project by canine enthusiasts to create a new hybrid that combines the distinct looks and attitudes of the American Pit Bull Terrier and American Staffordshire Terrier. Although these are the two closest relations, there was also interbreeding with the French Bulldog, English Bulldog, Olde English Bulldogge, and American Bulldog as well.

This process largely took place in the 1980s and 1990s. In 2004, the first organization dedicated to maintaining the new breed standards was launched — the American Bully Kennel Club (ABKC). This move was helpful in ensuring a more consistent array of physical characteristics within the breed. Other groups were quick to follow suit, including the United Kennel Club in 2013.

In recent years, American Bullies have become familiar sights in local communities — not just in the USA, but increasingly around the globe, too.

American Bully Breed Appearance

What your pet looks like depends largely on which of the four American Bully types recognized by the ABKC you decide upon.

The Pocket is the shortest, with males usually being under 17 inches and females under 14 — they’re still pretty muscly, however. The American Bully Standard is slightly larger than the Pocket in height and weight, yet still shares a similar look.

By contrast, the Classic is a step in a different direction. They’re roughly the same size as a Standard, but have considerably less muscle mass. Their lighter, more athletic frame looks more like that of an American Staffordshire Terrier.

And finally, there’s the American Bully XL, which, as the name suggests, is the biggest one of all. Some consider there to be more categories beyond this, such as the XXL (or Extreme) and Micro, but they are currently unrecognized in any official capacity.

Regardless of the size and musculature, all American Bullies are distinctly recognizable at the front end — you should expect to see a large, boxy head with a short, broad muzzle. Ears are high-set and either natural or cropped, while eyes are oval-shaped and seen in all expected colors except blue.

The coat of an American Bully is short and glossy, albeit with a touch of coarseness. Thanks to their mixed heritage, this fur can come out in a huge range of colorways and it’s possible to find a red, blue or black American Bully— just not albino or merle.

American Bully Breed Maintenance

When it comes to grooming, the American Bully doesn’t ask for much. The short coat will need brushing with a firm bristle brush several times a week and that’s about it. They generally keep themselves pretty clean and don't need regular bathing unless they roll in something offensive.

Parents will need to carry out the same essential tasks as they would for all other breeds — that includes brushing teeth once a week at least, clipping nails regularly and checking ears for signs of infection.

When it comes to exercise, this muscly dog needs a lot to stay happy and healthy — we’re talking about an hour of activity a day and 16 miles of walking a week, although these figures can differ depending on your dog’s size. Similarly, watch out for American Bullies with short muzzles, as they can become easily breathless or overheated.



American Bully Health Risks

American Bullies are generally considered to be healthy animals, but that doesn’t mean they don’t suffer from hereditary or breed-specific ailments. Health issues that can affect the American Bully include:

  • Hip Dysplasia
  • Elbow Dysplasia
  • Skin Issues
  • Brachycephalic Syndrome

The one thing a parent can do to increase the chances of a robust American Bully is to only deal with breeders that carry out screening on their animals and take those affected by certain genetic conditions out of the breeding pools. Many American Bully breeders will only be too happy to talk you through the lineage and medical history of their dogs.

Hip and Elbow Dysplasia

More commonly spotted in larger breeds, hip or elbow dysplasia has been seen to be overrepresented in the American Bully dog. This is a nasty problem that occurs when the 

joints fail to develop correctly. As a result, the ball and socket become misaligned, leading to friction between the two.

Your vet might lean towards a hip or elbow dysplasia diagnosis if you bring your dog to them with symptoms of limping or pain in the back or front legs. Physical exams and radiographs can offer confirmation.

There are a range of treatment options available to treat this condition and the route will depend on the severity of the symptoms. Supplements and dietary changes are often enough for mild cases, but physiotherapy and surgery are options for more serious instances.

Skin Issues

Both the American Pit Bull Terrier and the American Staffordshire Terrier are no strangers to skin conditions. These can often be passed down to the American Bully.

You might spot your American Bully suffering from itchiness, red skin or patches of hair loss. This can be caused by a range of afflictions, including allergies and Seborrhea.

Brachycephalic Syndrome

This is something that’s more likely to be spotted in a Pocket American Bully, particularly ones with short snouts and exaggeratedly squashed faces. This compressed facial anatomy can cause respiratory issues, including heavy breathing and overheating.

In some cases, surgery can ease the worst problems, whether that’s to correct a cleft palate or enlarge the airways. In other instances, your vet might recommend lifestyle changes, such as maintaining a healthy weight and walking at cooler points of the day.



A pet insurance policy will come to your aid when your dog isn’t quite themselves for whatever reason — shop around for the best options using Wag!’s comparison tool.





What to Feed an American Bully?

Just like human bodybuilders, American Bullies have formidable appetites and should be treated to recipes that are high in protein, vitamins and minerals to ensure healthy muscle growth. 

The amount you should put in their bowl will depend on their weight. It’s important not to overfeed an American Bully, as this will put them at risk of obesity and a range of secondary conditions, such as Diabetes Mellitus.

In addition, an American Bully puppy and a senior Bully should be given dog food formulated with their specific needs in mind.

American Bully Temperament

While American Bullies have legions of admirers, there are also people who don’t look upon the variety so fondly and within certain circles, they have a reputation for being aggressive.

Is this fair? Yes and no. American Bullies are undeniably powerful animals and if not trained properly, can pose a danger to humans. In fact, some governments around the world have banned, or are considering banning, the breed due to some high-profile incidents.

However, it would be unfair to completely write off the whole breed as violent, as American Bully puppies that have been effectively trained and socialized at a young age will grow up to be respectful and gentle. They might engage in play that verges on rough, but they should stop when you tell them to stop.

Parents who are unable to commit the time and patience to this training process are advised to consider another breed or go for an adult American Bully who’s a little more mature in psyche.

As well as being loving and loyal, the American Bully is prized for their intelligence and will need plenty of toys to keep their brains occupied — unstimulated dogs have the tendency to become a little destructive, so this is for everybody’s benefit.

Rescued from a shelter. Very typical breed personality. Just wants to cuddle 24/7 but loves her walks and toys and has bursts of energy randomly where she can get a little rough. VERY wary of strangers especially when we’re outside the house. Protective of her owners, but sociable and outgoing when in our condo with people she trusts. Very dog reactive... has to be an only dog!

He plays appropriately with all 4 children. He is exceptionally gentle with our 7 month old baby. He is eager to learn. Extremely affectionate.

They just wanted him to have a good life and I don't think it could get much better for him. BEST DOG EVER!

We've only had him for a few days, but we are so in love. He is SO AFFECTIONATE. He loves to be with both of us and misses us when one is in another room, even when the other is there. He is getting the hang of a few commands like come, stay, and sit, but potty training has been the hardest yet. He is very affectionate with others as well. The times that he's been around other dogs he sniffs them and says hello, but after that doesn't really pay much mind to them unless they are playing with each other. Even if dogs are barking at or around him, he does not bark back.

First experience A breed other than MyEnglish bulldogs. Similar stubborness and testing boundaries however at 9 weeks [week#2 in my home] I will attest to their intelligence, Already I have both brothers potty trained and almost to the point of on command, sitting, stay, lay down, wait, drop it, Go to bed.. Something I've never accomplished In the same time frame with my English bulldogs.. it's remarkable. Took them the past Sat fire their first shot, someone said I have my work cut out for me.. My response Was one of the right thing to do, Wrong place and time.. I put both pups down... Gave a few commands, they followed and I said, ya think? Astonished and in disbelief How smart they are at this Early stage

My son got his first bully 2 years ago and I fell in love! I had to have one but my husband said no due to us having 4 dogs already, GSD. I was afraid of how they would act with his. Well they meet, all of them loved her! She was so funny and playful my husband even fell in love with her. My son breed her this April but my husband still said we had enough dogs but I had to have this one particular one. She was very small but feisty, I was head over hills for her, so my husband let me have her. Now he loves her as much as I do! She is so funny and loving. You can not have a bad day with her around. I have joint custody of my twin 5 year old grandsons and I have no doubt that she will grow up to be a great protecter for them, and us. Now we are a bully family!

She loves her “butt wubbies” rubbing the base of her body she just licks when you rub her tail area and gets mad or throws a tantrum if you stop. She will roll around on her back kicking her feet up pushing up the mattress throwing a fit like a toddler if she is bored or wants to go walk. She has a sister dig Maltese Chihuahua mix sister Cotton and a domestic short haired cat sister Pepper(who just had 5kittens). She wants to be carried like a baby but she is way to big now and if anyone tries to attack me playing around oh boy she jumps at you barking. She is spoiled.

We’ve had him since he was 6 weeks old and he has made us all smile a lot !!! He has a big personality even though he shares his home with 3 other dogs and 2 entitled cats oh yeah and 8 humans. He was a little hardheaded about house training but learned it pretty fast. He pays attention to everything that is going on around him. He loves kids and if a baby starts to cry someone better be there taking care of it otherwise he’s going to whimper and pace until somebody does. He likes most people and is VERY VERY friendly. One of the best dogs we have ever had

Question

My 5 month old puppy needs to lose 10lbs. How do I feed her and how much exercise does she need a day?

Answer
Unfortunately I don't have enough specific information in your question to give you the advice you need. Calories required depend on the dog's current body condition score and weight as well as their activity levels. Also, every food has a different calorie content, so it depends on what you give her to eat. It would be unusual for such a young dog to be so over weight so do double check with your vet that this is what is needed. If she is indeed this over weight, reduce portion size by about 10% and reduce any treats, chews or human food given. Reasess in 2 weeks to ensure we are in the right track. Otherwise, cut down a little more. She should be fed a high quality puppy food such as Royal Canin or Orijen. Exercise wise, we would aim for about 2 or 3 25 minute walks a day at this age, as well as lots of scenting games and brain games/puzzles.

Question

We have a 6 month American Bully female. She’s 47 pounds. Do you know the appropriate cups of food she should be getting. She’s not big on breakfast, maybe finishes half a cup of orijen regional red and a spoonful of Greek yogurt. Lunch she eats 1.5 cup dry with a topper(appx 127 calories for the topper) and dinner 1.5 c dry with a topper. She is trained pretty regularly throughout the day, so she is also receiving training treats.
