Stella the American Bulldog

This is one of the new additions to our American Bulldog family, " Stellar Reign". Stella was born July 20, 2003. She was one of 13 puppies! (Puppies available) Hand raised, she is very gentle in her temperament. She is very loyal to people and wants to be where they are. We also kept her sister, Arrow. Arrow is more assertive and spunky. She shows little fear and loves to play. Their parents are Hammer and Grimm.

Arrow and Stella 12 weeks old


About the American Bulldog Breed:


Reference: ABA
Background: The American Bulldog originated as a catchdog (mostly cattle) and property protection dog, in America’s Southeast. He was not bred to put on threat displays or to look a certain way. But, he did need the right equipment to take care of his real bulldog duties which were confrontational personal and property protection and as a catch dog. He needed to be strong enough to put unruly bulls on the ground and athletic enough to catch hogs that were allowed to free range in a semi-wild state.

General Appearance: The American Bulldog should generate the impression of great strength, agility, endurance and exhibit a well-knit, sturdy, compact frame with the absence of excessive bulk. Males are characteristically larger, heavier boned and more masculine than the bitches. The AB is a white or white and patched (brindle or red) dog. When patched he can range from the traditional pied markings of a patch over one or both eyes or ears, or a patch on the base of the tail, to a large saddle patch and various other patches.

Size: General: Males - 23 to 27 inches at the withers and weigh from 75 to 120 lbs. Females - 21 to 25 inches at the withers, 60 to 90 lbs. The weight should be proportional to size.
