Top Dog. The American Bully needs an owner who is firm, but calm, confident and consistent. They need to know what is expected of them; rules to follow and limits to what they are and are not allowed to do. The objective in training and successfully keeping this
dog is to achieve a pack leader status. It is a natural instinct for a dog to have an order in their pack. When we humans live with dogs, we become their pack. The entire pack cooperates
under a single leader. Lines are clearly defined. You and all other humans MUST be higher up in the order than the dog. That is the only way your relationship can be a success. |

Origin |
The American Bully breed was
established in the mid 1990 s with the purpose of creating the ultimate family
companion. The American Bully was created through years of selective breeding by
combining the desired traits of the UKC American Pit Bull Terrier and the AKC
American Staffordshire Terrier. Some lines have added other bully breeds into the mix and sometimes non bully breeds. The American Bully's origin's can be seen both
on the East and West Coast of the United States, primarily in Virgina, and Los
Angeles, California and is spreading to all parts of the US. Today the American Bully can also be seen, in Europe and
Asia. It is often confused with the American Pitbull Terrier but is clearly a different breed. |
