I love my American Bulldog. Make sure to get one from a good breeder and ask to see both parents - I did, and I have never had any temperment issues with mine. He's an unaltered male, so that's pretty spectacular - he has no aggression whatsoever. I put slobbery as a con, but I've never really minded it - but if you don't want a walking drool factory, look into another dog. They can be stubborn, and sneaky to get what they want, but not impossible to train. They love affection and will do anything to get it - even behave. ;)

Pros: loyal, sweet, eager to please

Cons: stubborn, extreme slobber

We have a 4 month old American Bulldog and couldn't ask for a better dog. Otis is a very intellegent dog! He will sit, lay, stay, come, roll over, speak, give five and play dead and never give me a minutes problem doing it. I got him when he was 8 weeks old and started working with him as soon as I got him. I just made the biggest deal out of him doing things I told him to do and now he thinks its a big game. House traing was a breeze within 2 weeks he was totally house trained. I have a bell on my door knob that he rings when he wants out. I would say if you like the bigger tough dogs this is the breed you should check into. They are so funny to watch run and play as they are VERY clumsy.

Pros: Loyal, protector, big clown of a dog, very lovable!

Cons: Gassy dogs

Well I have an AB that I purchased From Brewer Farms and he is one of the best purchases that i have made in a long while. he listens well and always has energy. He was born Aug 28th I beleive so he's about 4 1/2 months right now and he weighs 46 pounds! Thanks Cassie I recommended you to everyone I get so many compliments about him.

Pros: Amazing personality and extreme drive to please great with kids and pets.

Cons: STUBBORN

We also purchased our AB from Brewer Farms and he is the best dog ever! Great with our kids (5 years and 10 months), very protective of the whole family and very smart and eager to learn. We are always getting compliments on Oso. We were on the beach and somebody stopped us to asked if he was a Brewer pup!

Pros:

Cons:

I have never enjoyed any breed as much as I have this beautiful pup. I have a young rescue pup that was bottle fed as a baby. She was rescued from a mother being used in a puppy mill for fighting dogs. I feel I have never made such a wise decision. I have a 9 year boy and never thought I would find the right breed to keep up with his rough high energy play but she is durable yet gentle with him and we love her as though she was a blood related child. We have worked hard with her to train her and she does require alot of exercise but she is worth every ounce of it! You can see after spending just a few minutes with her she only wants to please us and she is an excellent judge of character. If she senses any malice in an individual she refuses any contact with that person and we allow no one of that nature to chastize or mistreat her. We have not raised her with any anger only firm talk and removal of favorite toys-I recommend only durable toys and lots of praise and health treats-she loves to pull and can jump flat footed over 5 ft easily for a treat. Treated with respect and lots of love these dogs can not be beat as family pets-care must be taken around livestock as she tends to love a good chase and takes any aggressive behavior by the other animal as a direct threat to her family. They are alot like raising little boys-they are curious, smart, sneaky and can run till the sun goes down then as soon as she is still for 10 minutes she is out till morning! We absolutely love our new child! ; ) another thing she is very sweet and docile with our daughters 4lb yorkie. GO BELLA. The only thing I am not sure of is I don't know if I should have her fixed right away because I can't stand the thought of being an irresponsible breeder and letting one of her puppies fall into the wrong hands-the other part of me would love to breed her once to a freinds male with the same temperament so I can have a few more of these wonderful dogs. We live in the country and the security and joy they bring is wonderful but I struggle with the thought that I am being selfish. Can anyone tell me if this would be a good idea or not? I would love to have someones opinion with more experience with these dogs. Also will breeding her once before she's fixed change her disposition? PLEASE HELP so I don't make the worst mistake of mine and her life-thanks for letting me be a part of undoing these dogs bad rep--it is not deserved. GO RESPONSIBLE BULLY OWNERS! TOGETHER MAYBE WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE!

Pros: smart, loving, intellegent and very loyal also good at judgement of strange people EXCELLENT with kids as they are durable and high energy!

Cons: slobbery (who cares!) likes to chase livestock when not under direct supervision.

I got my AB form someone in miami who listed it for free on craigslist. when I got him he was a wreck. He wa sscared, nervous around people and very tired all the time. Took him to my vet found he had hookworms and lymes disease. Got him treated and now he is running the show. I haven't disciplined him too bad since it looks like he was abused at his old home, so i tend to let him get away with things for now. He is GREAT with the kids and my other 2 pets a cat and a daschound. beautiful dog.

Pros: Loyal great with kids, very smart, easy to potty train

Cons: Messy eater, very stubborn

I got my American Bulldog pup from a breeder in Alabama when he was 7 weeks. He is now 13 weeks and the best dog I have every owned. He is super smart and loves learning. Potty training was soo easy with him, it only took a few days. He only had 2 accidents in the house. He also knows sit, shake/high five, leave it, come, lay down, and most the time stay. :) He comes with me daily to my daycare and does fantastic with all the kids. He is an all around great dog. I love him tons!!

Pros: Loyal, Smart, Great with kids, Loveable

Cons: Gassy, Stubborn

I purchased my AB from Tompkins Kennels out of Kentucky. This is my first AB and he is absolutely wonderful. He is great with the kids and has turned into a very good home protector. I highly recommend this breed to any one.

Pros: Best dog ever

Cons: There are no Cons

i got my AB when he wa 12 weeks old. found he was very clever and would sit and lie on command but....would nt come to his name. thought the prob might be cos i got 2 other dogs and was confused. nope he's deaf!!!!. once realising this he came on in leaps and bounds. Get contact an he will do anything. he is fine off leash as he always comes when my oher dogs are recalled..every time. he is gentle an loving although other small dogs tend to attack him. i think this is because he cannot hear their warning growl.

Pros:

Cons:

we found our ab puppy at a pitbull rescue.she's about 8 months old now. we love her like one of our children.what a wonderful find. did a lot of research on dog breeds first.and this dog fits in with our family perfectly. a lot of work to say the least with two boys 4 years and 8 months but well worth it.

Pros: eager to please\easy to train. excellent with children.very friendly and playful.loyal.easy to house train.

Cons: can be stubborn.messy eater (if u care about that sort of thing)

We got our AB June first from a breeder in Bowling Green KY. He is a 54 lb. 4 month old, spoiled rotten fella named Boss. We are crazy about him, he is great with our kids and he loves to go play at the dog park. Yes, they can be a stubborn breed be that can be easily remedied if they are trained well and they have good lovin'. We are in puppy classes right now and they are going great! He will do just about anything I ask as long as there is a tasty reward in it for him! Because they are a working breed they will pull on a leash, i do recomend a gentle lead head collar...it has work AMAZINGLY for Boss my 5 year old can walk him now with no problem!! Hopefully soon we will be able to go for walks without it when our training his complete. I LOVE MY AMERICAN BULLY!!!

Pros:

Cons:

We got or AB in June for our anniversary. She is 4 years young. We got her from a guy who just didn't have time for her anymore and he felt bad leaving her home alone when he had to work. So we got her for free. He just wanted her to go to a family where she would get the attention he felt she deserved. Our family is now complete. i get teary eyed watching her with my kids. She is awesome. I couldn't ask for a better dog. We LOVE her!!

Pros: AWSOME with my 3 and 2 year old son and daughter.

Cons: Stubborn and slobbery. So What!
