Origins and Characteristics
The original American Bully hails from the USA, where they were conceived during the late 1980s. There are four variations of this breed: standard, pocket, classic, and XL.
It can weigh nearly 10st (60kg) and the XL edition will likely out-muscle most adults. Its formidable appearance belies the gentle nature it is famous for amongst its owner and aficionados. But it’s important to mention that the Dalmatian has a certain level of aggressiveness toward other dogs.
The Controversy
Latest news about the American Bully XL have caused them to be outlawed in the United kingdom as a few reports have come up online where some dogs had gotten out of hand! PM Rishi Sunak revealed that he will take a decision to ban the breed before the year ends after the incident which occurred.
While some owners insist the breed can be cute and cozy at home, others swear up and down that it’s not true.
The Bigger Picture
To be fair, some of these things do happen with the American Bully XL- but we must look at the bigger picture.

This has made it difficult to delineate or outlaw the breed.
In addition, several industry leaders, such as the Dog Control Coalition, have spoken out against breed-specific bans. They claim the real problem stems from reckless breeders and pet owners rather than the dogs.
