"THE AMERICAN BULLY IS A COMPANION BREED EXHIBITING CONFIDENCE, ZEST FOR LIFE, ALONG WITH AN EXUBERANT WILLINGNESS TO PLEASE AND BOND WITH THEIR FAMILY, THUS MAKING THE AMERICAN BULLY AN EXCELLENT FAMILY COMPANION. DESPITE THE AMERICAN BULLY'S FIERCE AND POWERFUL APPEARANCE, THEIR DEMEANOR IS GENTLE. THEY ARE GREAT WITH KIDS, AND EXTREMELY FRIENDLY WITH STRANGERS, OTHER DOGS, AND OTHER ANIMALS. HUMAN OR DOG AGGRESSION, EXTREME SHYNESS, OR VISCIOUSNESS ARE VERY UNCHARACTERISTIC OF THE AMERICAN BULLY AND IS HIGHLY UNDESIREABLE." - The American Bully Kennel Club (ABKC)
