What is an American Pocket Bully?

Question

Accepted Answer

An American Pocket Bully is a pocket-sized version of the American Bully. It is recognized by three main kennel clubs — the UKC, ABKC, and EKC — as a separate breed from the standard American Bully. The American Pocket Bully was created by breeding together a few different dog breeds, such as the Patterdale Terrier, English Bulldog, and French Bulldog. This new breed has since become popular due to their playful yet loyal demeanor and smaller size.

American Pocket Bullies are known for being one of the friendliest breeds around. They have an affectionate nature towards people and do well with children who understand how to properly interact with them. With proper socialization and training, they make suitable companions for experienced owners looking for an outgoing pet that loves attention. As with any other bully breed, they need consistent leadership in order to develop into obedient and manageable dogs.

These dogs thrive on human companionship and enjoy activities like fetching or playing catch. They weigh anywhere from 10-17 pounds when fully grown, making them perfect lapdogs that still provide some of the protection that larger bullies sometimes can’t offer in smaller dwellings or crowded spaces. Though not considered guard dogs by any stretch of the imagination, there are some individuals with strong territorial instincts which can cause them to bark at unfamiliar faces or items entering their space.

The AKC recognizes two coat colors: black & white/brown & white (known as ‘piebald’). Some pocket bully crosses also come in all solid colors without patches such as fawns or buckskins–but these are not recognized by official organizations at this time (though popularity is growing!). In conclusion if you’re looking for a great all-around family pet that’s small enough to fit in your pocket but still has plenty of spunk then an American Pocket Bully might be your next best friend!
