Maleficent

American Bullies may have a rough-and-tough name, but they rarely live up to it. This loyal and brave breed loves being active and spending time with family. However, they won’t hesitate to bust out their inner bully when necessary. Full-grown, they typically weigh 40-60 pounds and stand 20-28 inches tall.

American Bullys are generally good with kids, especially when raised together. The American Bully makes great guard dogs, but they're also gentle family companions. These dogs are usually good with kids if they are socialized and trained at a young age. They're relatively quiet and don't bark much.

The American Bully may have been built for mass, but they're also incredibly athletic. They require exercise such as a long walk, jog, or backyard playtime on a daily basis. These dogs build up physical and mental stress if they don’t get enough exercise, so keeping them active is important to avoid having an unhappy, destructive pup. Overall, their exercise needs are high.

The American Bully's coat is short, smooth, and stiff to the touch. They come in a variety of colors, such as fawn, chocolate, black, red, and brindle. Because their coats are short, American Bullies are easy to groom. Grooming-wise, this breed is low-maintenance.

American Bullys are best suited for apartments and smaller homes. American Bullies also love being active and need plenty of space to play. They prefer warmer climates where they can soak up the sun, but if you live in a colder climate or keep your pup inside most of the day, make sure it has enough playtime and exercise to get its energy out. They are moderately trainable with consistent effort.
