No, they are like any other dog. If taught to be mean or abused then they will grow to be agrressive. They are not people aggressive unless taught to be. I have one who lives with 3 cats and another dog. My cats are more aggressive than he is. I will say he is the most loyal loving dog I have ever owned. I will never own another breed now because of him. Do not believe the media hype. I was scared of the breed but was open minded enough to take in this puppy. I have changed many minds with my dog. Anyone who was previously scared because of the breed now love my dog.

No, not at all unless he/she has had a violent past. If not they are loving pets for you, if you are a pet lover.

Bully breed dogs are dogs that are classified as pit bill type breeds and were originally bred to fight bulls for sport. Not all dogs that have the term "bull" in their breed qualify. Bully breeds include the American pit bull terrier, American Staffordshire terrier, Staffordshire terrier, English bull terrier, miniature bull terrier, and the American bulldog.

Bully breeds have gotten a bad reputation because of their aggressive beginnings, but they are great dogs to the right owner.
