When you are planning on bringing home an American bully puppy, you want to educate yourself on the breed. This way, you know what to expect with regards to the type of dog that puppy will grow up to become. You will also have a better idea of what you need to do to make your home ready for your new American bully pup.

They are not pit bulls

One of the first things you want to know about an American bully is that it is not a pit bull. This is important information for you to know because pit bulls are banned in some counties throughout the country, and they are also not accepted by many homeowners insurance companies. When you have a pit bull, you can have a hard time renting a place too, because the owners will need to worry about their home owner's policy dumping them if they find out the residence has a pit bull. However, an American bully is not the same thing as a pit bull, so these concerns aren't ones you need to worry about.

They come in a variety of sizes

One very unique thing about the American bully breed is that they come in four different sizes. While some breeds come in two different sizes, it's not very common for a breed to come in four sizes. The sizes American bully's come in include the standard size, the pocket size, the XL size, and the classic size. This allows you to choose the size that is going to complement your lifestyle the best.

They are easy to train

American bullies are very intelligent dogs, and they like to please their owners. This makes them very easy to train. While some of them are food driven and learn better with treat rewards, most of them will happily learn for attention and praise as their reward. They need a fair amount of exercise, so you can train them to play fetch or to play frisbee. Once trained, you can play with them while giving them the exercise they need.

They are great in a family setting

American bully dogs have room in their hearts for the entire family. They are very social dogs, so they will want to be where all the action is in your home. When the family is watching TV, they will be right next to someone on the couch or at their feet on the floor. They will be protective of their family if anyone appears to be a threat to someone they are protective of.
