The American Bulldog is a powerful, athletic short-coated dog, strongly muscled and well boned. The body is just slightly longer than tall. The head is large and broad with a wide muzzle. Ears are small to medium in size, high set, and may be drop, semi-prick, rose or cropped. The tail may be docked or natural. The American Bulldog comes in solid colors, white with colored patches and brindle. Gender differences are well expressed in this breed, with males typically larger and more muscular than females. Honorable scars resulting from field work are not to be penalized. The American Bulldog should be evaluated as a working dog and exaggerations or faults should be penalized in proportion to how much they interfere with the dog’s ability to work.
