Allow me to introduce.. 'Cali' the Amstaff

[Bouncer]

scary stuff tkd, glad they are ok.

I think chocolate is still dangerous if its something like dark chocolate or cocoa powder which has a much higher percentage compared to milk chocolate.

Her winter coat is coming in and it has a little bit of brown in it. Can only see it under bright light.

[Bouncer]

She lays and looks into old fellas eyes like "come on brother, lets play, why you sleep so much?"

[blm]

That's endearing.

[Bouncer]

Her head is getting bigger. You can see it week to week. Bigger head and neck than the boxer. His collar is tighter on her than it is on him.

So I'm thinking she must have been bred bigger then standard. I've been on all kinds of pitbull/amstaff/american bully forums to get an idea of what different peoples dogs weighed at 6-7 months. Most of the answers for the pitbull is 25-35lbs for the female and 35-40lbs for the males. Cali is 62lbs. So she's 22lbs heavier than a male pitbull at the same age. lol. I'm guessing she is more of an "american bully" type dog. These dogs aren't recognized by the AKC and their look varies a great deal. Some just look like big pitbulls like Cali does and others look like retarded bull dogs. lol. Here is a chart showing the differences of the american bully. I believe Cali to be the "classic" or "standard" version. Basically just a big pitbull, much heavier than standard. The "extreme" "XL" etc.. are not pitbulls, they are mixed with mastiffs.





American Bully Classic ^ 90lbs



American Bully Standard ^ 100lbs

Anyone ever use one of these? One end connects to the collar and the other end connects to the leash. Acts like a shock absorber when the dog suddenly darts for a squirrel or whatever else. Shes good most of the time but when she gets excited and sees another little animal her pray drive is intense and she's hurt my arms and shoulders a few times.

American bully's (standard) are a grotesque caricature of pitbull. It's like the golden era of BB compared to the mass monster bloated belly era.

[Bouncer]

How about the extreme and XL!? Lol. 125lb "pitbull"

[blm]

Yeah I meant standard and up

[Bouncer]

Yeah I meant standard and up

Have you seen the pocket? Even worse..

They are short like bulldogs.

[blm]

Honestly the whole bully breed trend sickens me

[Bouncer]

yea, to many retards just breeding for a certain look without regard for anything else.

Cali's proportions are identical to that of a pit/amstaff. She doesn't look like some of these bully freaks, It's just that she's heavier at her age than she should be according to the standard. 20lbs heavier than standard male Amstaff at 7 months seems like a lot to me. So I don't know what exactly to call her. A pit bull that has simply been bred to be bigger or a bully? Same situation with your boxer, he's heavier than what is considered "standard" right?

[blm]

No he was just a freak of the litter. But he's also there only one plagued with health issues since day one.

[Bouncer]

I'm almost wondering if maybe one of Cali's parents was a "bully" and the other was a standard pit. That might explain the above average size while still maintaining the standard pit look. Most of the so called bullies have exaggerated features, she doesn't, only difference is her weight. It's no fat either, she has none.
