HAS ANYONE EVER STRUGGLED COMING UP WITH AN ANSWER WHEN SOMEONE ASKS “WHAT KIND OF DOG IS THAT???” I know it happens to me, so it must happen to others as well. Our dogs are by definition “pitbulls,” especially being that there are many, varying definitions for what exactly a pitbull is. Here’s one definition: “The term Pit Bull is used in reference to multiple breeds of dogs. Namely, the American Pit Bull Terrier, American Staffordshire Terrier and Staffordshire Bull Terrier, as well as any crosses between the three. However, in a few parts of the world the American Bulldog is also classified as ‘Pit Bull’ type dog, despite the fact that they have major genetic differences. In the 90′s, the American Bully was created from the American Staffordshire Terrier and the American Pit Bull Terrier.” I, just like some people, sometimes find myself struggling with a definite answer to tell people. Normally, I’ll call them American Bullies, but being as I am a person who has a program based upon dogs that have the bully appearance along with pitbull structure/drive, it becomes a little more difficult to try and explain to a newbie how my dogs are related to some of the abominations that people are calling bullies nowadays. I grew up with the original APBT…pure Jeep, Heinzel, Pat Patrick dogs and when this bully movement started and I looked at my dogs, I could tell the difference right away even if they had some* similarities. But now, like I said, it seems as if there is even a stigma against calling a dog a “BULLY.” Some, not all, of the “new generation” of bullies will make any true pitbull lover cringe and for a good reason. If you like bulldogs and you want your “bully” to look like a bulldog, then go and breed bulldogs…it’s that simple! Don’t come and try to ruin a breed that was based on the pitbull. Idk how some of these people even have the gull to add the word BULL to anything they have. Pig is what they should be called. So, with that being sad…I can’t wait until nature takes its course and these exotic dogs remove themselves from the equation. That way, REAL BULLY BREEDERS can get back to breeding dogs that are not only similar in appearance to each other, but also similar to the founding dogs who started all of this 10-20 years ago. THEN AND ONLY THEN WILL THE TERM “AMERICAN BULLY” BE RESTORED TO THE GLORY IT ONCE HAD AND THE BULLY STIGMA WILL GO AWAY.
