Welcome to Fat Head Kennel Club

Powerful in stature but sweet in disposition, the American Bully is a wonderful family dog with a laid-back personality. Born with a strong desire to please, American Bullies are loyal, confident, and can be extremely tolerant with children. They protect their home and their family pack, but the American Bully was not bred to be a guard dog. Contrary to what their name implies, the American Bully is no “bully” at all. With their outgoing, affectionate temperament, they are a great ambassador for bully-dog breeds. A newer addition to the world of canine breeds, the American Bully originated in the United States between 1980 and 1990. A combination of American Staffordshire Terrier, American Pit Bull Terrier, American Bulldog, Olde English Bulldog, and Bulldog, the American Bully  has been recognized as a breed by the UKC since 2013.

A devoted family companion, the American Bully originated on both coasts of the United States. This breed is now found far beyond American borders, and has made his mark in both Europe and Asia.  Dog breeds grouped within the “bully breed” descend from Molosser dogs of Greece who are noted for the robust physique, pendant ears and short muzzles. Original bully breeders wanted a strong canine to guard their property, protect livestock, and help with daily chores, The modern American Bully is more tolerant toward other dogs than some other bully breeds.
