The American Bulldog is loyal, trusted, brave and determined. Not a hostile dog. Alert and self-confident, this type genuinely loves kids. It is understood for its acts of heroism toward its master. It has strong protective instincts, and requires a company, positive, constant pack leader. Well-socialize and obedience train them at a very early age, to prevent them from becoming reserved with strangers. Without that strong-minded pack leader who can mention to the canine exactly what is anticipated of it, it could be aggressive with other dogs. They have to be around individuals and know their place in their pack to be genuinely delighted. This type tends to slobber and drool. Without sufficient daily mental and workout they will certainly end up being high strung and might end up being hard to manage.
