Well if you're a breed specific legislation advocate I couldn't blame you for being a bit confused as the poster boy for Bsl Jeff (boofhead) Borchardt insists on using pictures of American Bully's in his media campaign attacking American Pit Bull Terriers.
Apparently any individual of average intelligence can identify a "Pit Bull" according to a recent court ruling which Dogsbite highlighted in a recent post.....
Who Can Identify a Pit Bull? A Dog Owner of 'Ordinary ...
Obviously Boofhead is not of average intelligence as confirmed with his latest post attacking pit bulls featuring a picture of an American Bully.
Here you go Boofhead hopefully you can learn the difference and stop exposing your ignorance and obvious lack of intelligence?
American Pit Bull Terrier vs. American Bully (Bully Pit)
Information and Pictures
An American Pit Bull Terrier (left) bred by John Errington. An American Bully (right) bred by Ruthless Kennels.
People often confuse the American Pit Bull Terrier with the American Bully Pit. The American Bully is becoming very popular in the USA and most people lump the two together as one in the same when there are clear differences that even the average person could point out if they had a little bit of info on them.
The American Bully was started by crossing the American Pit Bull Terrier with other dogs in the bully breed family and sometimes dogs outside the bully family. The American Bully is becoming its own breed, and is not the same breed as the American Pit Bull Terrier (APBT).
On the left is Spencer the blue nose brindle American Pit Bull Terrrier and on the right is Mia the 13-week-old blue nose American Bully Pit puppy.
One very clear difference is appearance. The American Bullies are more muscular and very broad often with larger heads and shorter legs. The American Pit Bulls are not as muscular and not as wide.
Pit Bulls are medium sized dogs weighing about 30 to 70 pounds and stand about 18 to 22 inches at the shoulders, while American Bullies are more like 50 to 120 pounds. In both breeds actual weight and height are less important than the proportion between weight and height. Weights and heights vary in both breeds, but the goal of the American Bully to be muscular and broad with a big head remains a clear difference.

This is Danger the 6 1/2 year old red nose Pit Bull / American Bully mix. His mother was a American Pit Bull Terrier game dog and his father is an American Bully. A lot of people assume that the term game dog means a fighting dog, when actually it is a term for a working dog. A lot ofhunting-type breeds and working terriers use the word game to describe their working dogs. Game refers to the type of dog who will work until it drops, never gives up, perseveres and is ready and willing for anything.

Is it any wonder that breed specific legislation is being repealed and/or legislated against increasingly around the world when they have people with no canine expertise or training masquerading as Dog breed behavioral experts promoting it with the use of propaganda and disinformation such as the likes of Merrit Clifton a washed up second rate journalist with absolutely no formal training or education in data correlation and/or collection?
The pit bull haters all use a common source for their disinformation and propaganda from dogsbite.org which was created by a failed phone psychic with absolutely no formal training and or credentials in the canine field and furthermore the organization does not include even one legitimate Canine expert.
Seriously does any normal person wonder why Bsl is being turfed in the garbage considering it doesn't work for a start and secondly look at the style of advocacy breed specific legislation proponents engage employing tactics including stalking, doxing and cyber bullying all hidden behind an alleged noble cause which seems to totally ignore the 38% of dog bite related fatalities that involve non banned breeds and focus specifically on killing pit bulls?
more to come.....
