The term American Bully means a lot of different things, to a lot of different people.  Some people like them short, while others like them tall.  Some like them thick, while others like them lean. While there are many different body types and style preferences among breeders and enthusiasts, the A.B.K.C. (American Bully Kennel Club), defines the Standard American Bully as follows:

  • The American Bully should give the impression of great strength for its size. Compact to medium/large size dog with a muscular body and blocky head. Powerful in its movement and should display effortless movement at the same time. Keenly alive and alert to its surroundings. The American Bully should have the appearance of heavy bone structure with a Bully build and look.
  • The American Bully is a companion breed exhibiting confidence, a zest for life, along with an exuberant will to please and companionship with their family. This making the American Bully an excellent family companion. Despite the American Bully’s fierce and powerful appearance their demeanor is gentle. They are great with kids, and extremely friendly with strangers, other dogs, and other animals. Human or dog aggression, extreme shyness, or viciousness is very uncharacteristic of the American Bully and is highly undesirable.

The American Bully breed has grown to become a very popular breed, in a very short period of time. Other countries outside the United States have also grown very fond of this breed, and have even begun to host A.B.K.C. shows, to help bring awareness, and educate people in their region about this wonderful new breed.  While the A.B.K.C. is one of the largest American Bully kennel clubs around, other large Kennel clubs have formed, and are growing equally as fast.  Kennel clubs such as: the RKC, IBKC, and BBCR are also spreading throughout the United States and abroad, taking the American Bully breed to an exciting new level.

Aside from registries, and kennel clubs that have formed due to the American Bully breed; there have also been a growth in vendors, providing American Bully products and supplies.  Bully Girl Magazine is a great example of this.
