The American Bulldog

The American bulldog is often confused with the pit bull.  The American bulldog, however, is not a pit bull bread.  A pit bull is actually many different breads, including the American Staffordshire terrier, American pit bull terrier, and the Stafforshire bull terrier.  Now, don't get me wrong, I have nothing against pit bull breads.  In fact, there is a soft spot in my heart for pit bull breads, due to the fact that they are bully bread just like the American bulldogs.  But, I do think it is important to point out that American bulldogs are their own bread.

American bulldogs are a bread of bulldog. I know it seems obvious,but because of the physical characteristics to pit bull breads it is not always obvious.  The most famous American bulldog, may just be Chance from Homeward Bound, whose voice was played by Michael J Fox.
