So you are wondering what is the difference between the American bully pitbull breed and the original American Pit Bull Terrier? I have a lot of people contacting me from emails, Facebook and Instagram. Most of the people are telling me I don’t have the original American Pit Bull Terrier. I have even had other breeders from some of the different Pitbull Kennels tell me the same thing. But sorry to break the news to you but I know I don’t have the original pit bull terrier and neither are 99% of the dogs I see today. The style of Pitbull we have here at FPM Kennels is Blue XL Bullies or XL Pitbulls. I am not fighting dogs or Bull Baiting so why would I want a dog that is 45 pounds breed to fight and used for bull baiting. My dogs are used for showing, weight pulling, protection work and most of all family dogs.

Bully Pitbulls Are Still Classified As Pitbulls

The American Pit Bull Terrier is best suited for Dog Fighting and Bull Baiting and I understand many people will get offended with this statement but I have no problem in saying the truth. I know my dogs are hybrids of the original American Pit Bull Terrier. My ideal dog is 120 pounds that can protect my family if needed and at the same time be an inside dog with my kids. Pitbulls is just a classification of multiple breeds just as bulldogs have multiple breeds classified under the term bulldogs. The American Pit Bull Terrier is a pitbull and so is Bully Pitbulls, XL Bully Pitbulls, Standard Pitbulls, or whatever other name you want to call your hybrid pitbull. They all fit under the classification of pitbulls, they are all different and used for different purposes. This is such a simple analogy to understand but so many people are freaking out when I say my XL Bully Pitbulls are a pitbull. Do you ever see anyone complaining about someone classifying a French Bulldog, English Bulldog, American Bulldog or Olde English bulldog under the term bulldog? NO because they are all Bulldogs just breed for different traits. Do yourself a favor and stop arguing about this topic with people and do something more productive with your time. Because honestly you look stupid arguing about my English Bulldog is a Bulldog But your French Bulldog is not a Bulldog. That statement is exactly my point, we do not do that with bulldogs so stop doing it with pitbulls. Just like the Bulldog the Pitbull has many variations or Hybrids which in all honesty makes such a wonderful breed. Because having so much variety means you can find the best dog suitable for you and your family’s needs. So I hope this article helped you understand the difference between Bully Pitbulls and American Pit bull Terriers or XL Pitbulls, Pocket Pitbulls or whatever you call your dog. If you still do not understand how all these different hybrids are still classified as pitbulls not American Pit Bull Terriers than you my friend have no common sense so you should not own any variation or hybrid of pitbull for the safety of you and the public
