American Bulldogs Breeders - History

Picture source: Big Daddys American Bulldogs

The first stock of American Bulldogs was bred in England in the middle centuries. Immigrants to the New World carried all their belongings with them. Naturally enough, dogs arrived to the continent with their owners to protect them from criminals and to help wrangle cattle on their farms. A relative of the English Bulldog, the breed possessed incredible strength, endurance, and could adjust to any conditions, no matter how hard they were.

These qualities were subject to perfection in America. Since the breed was popular only with farmers, who made use of its ability to work hard, show rings were not the place to see American Bulldogs. Appearance mattered little for American Bulldog owners, and there was no accepted standard to follow when breeding the dogs. Due to this fact, there are a number of differences within the breed now. But at present, working qualities of American Bulldogs are emphasized the most.

The breeders and owners of American Bulldogs distinguish between the Bully and the Standard type of American Bulldogs. Both types have distinctive features. Thus, the Standard American Bulldog is larger than the Bully type. They also have a different bite and some other characteristics. Both Standard and Bully American Bulldogs make good working dogs.
