Read on to learn more about the American Bully’s pedigree, along with information about American Bully breeders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What Is the American Bully’s Pedigree?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The American Bully is a designer breed created explicitly for owners who wish to carry on their pedigree. Initially, they were created by breeding the American Pit Bull Terrier with the Staffordshire Terrier and other Bulldog-type dogs. Although similar dogs have been around for centuries, the American Bully didn’t originate until the 1980s in the United States.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The oldest ancestor of the American Bully is the Molosser<\/a>, a large dog from Ancient Greece. This dog was used to protect livestock and property, much like its descendants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n American Bullies are related to Pit Bulls but are a mix of several other breeds. However, they are both considered bully breeds. The full list of bully breeds registerable through the American Kennel Club is listed below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Bully breeds all come from Molosser ancestry. They were then mixed with other breeds, like the Old English Bulldog and the Mastiff. Unfortunately, these dogs were often used for unsavory purposes, like bull-baiting<\/a>, which is where the name originated. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Bully breeds were brought to the United States in the early 20th century<\/a> when they took on more professional purposes. For example, a Pitbull named Stubby was used as a war dog by the American military in World War I. He saved many lives in Germany and received high praise and decoration for his heroism upon his return. <\/p>\n\n\n\n This famous war hero inspired many people to adopt bully breeds as household pets, especially as bully breeds had starring roles in pro-American war propaganda during World War II. By the 1950s, bully breeds had become popular household dogs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n However, things changed in the 1980s, when gangs began using pit bulls and other bully breeds for protection and status symbols. These dogs were often abused and neglected or trained to be aggressive, making them more prone to attack. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Today, dog lovers are restoring bully breeds’ reputation, showing that any dog raised in a good home with love and affection can become gentle and kind. Bullies raised well are social and loyal, as well as intelligent and athletic, and there is no reason to be afraid of them as long as they are well-treated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Now that the American Bully is an established breed, American Bullies are simply bred with one another to create the next generation. These typically come in four sizes: Pocket, Standard, Classic, and XL. Although all are American Bullies, they vary in size depending on which variation they are. <\/p>\n\n\n\n If you’re looking to adopt an American Bully, it’s important that you find a reputable breeder to purchase from because many unethical breeders will sell low-quality dogs just to make quick money. <\/p>\n\n\n\n A good breeder will take good care of the dogs and ensure that their pedigree is up to standards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Follow these guidelines, and you’ll be sure to come home with a well-mannered and healthy puppy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The American Bully Daily published a list of eight reputable American Bully breeders within the United States, listed below:<\/p>\n\n\n\nAre American Bullies Pit Bulls?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
