How we calculate this

American Bully questions

How big does an American Bully get?
A full-grown American Bully's adult weight depends on its variety: about 30–60 lb (Pocket), 65–85 lb (Standard), or 80–132 lb (XL). Because the variant makes such a big difference, use the calculator above with your puppy's current age and weight for a tighter estimate.
When does an American Bully stop growing?
Most American Bullys reach their full adult size around 15 months, in line with large-size dogs. They do most of their growing in the first 6 months, then fill out more slowly.
Are these American Bully size estimates accurate?
Based on veterinary consensus; designer breeds vary more than purebreds. Estimates are typically within 10–20% for purebreds; designer and mixed breeds vary more. We always show a range and clamp it to this breed's known adult size.
