Man’s best friend has long been one of the most popular pets for the typical American family. Among these furry friends are bully breeds, which despite popular belief, are some of the most well-tempered dog breeds out there. Bully breeds and pit bulls are currently the top most popular dog breed in nearly half of the U.S. states. From American bullies, to bull terriers, to boxers, bully breeds hail from around the world, bringing joy to families across the nation.
Some of the most popular dog breeds that follow under this category are french bulldogs, rottweilers, and dobermans. In fact, in 2022, the French Bulldog took the number one spot from the Labrador Retriever, ending its 31 year reign at the top. Boxers, great danes, terriers, and mastiffs are also up there in popularity, according to the American Kennel Club.
These types of dogs are piquing the interest of consumers across the United States, granting bully breeds the title of “America’s dogs”. So many families look for love and companionship in a dog, and bully breeds fit the bill. No matter where they originated from, Americans everywhere have claimed bully breeds and pitbulls as their favorite type of pooch.
