American Bully Myth

What is an american bully?

There’s still a lot of confusion surrounding the American Bully and the origins of what is essentially a crossbreed that is not recognised by most kennel clubs.

The American Bully is not a Pitbull but a cross between 3 Pitbull-type dog breeds, alongside bloodlines from breeds like the Old English Bulldog or Mastiffs.

In theory, the American Bully is the mix of Pitbull-type dogs, but when people generally refer to the Pitbull types, they’re referring to 3-4 other purebred bully breeds.

There's no regulation on which breeds go into an American Bully because it's essentially a crossbreed. Finding a responsible breeder is essential to make sure that no questionable breed went into it.

Do not fall for backyard breeders holding this crossbreed in high esteem when they can't prove the health of their pups through elaborate health testing.
