American Bulldog XL Residential Training
XL Bullies in the press
It’s hard to avoid the news about XL Bullies at the moment, as the government moves to change the future of this breed in the UK and ban them from future breeding. As people who love dogs, we are so sad to see yet another breed regarded in this way, especially one that we know can be such a loving, faithful pet. However, there is no denying that this strong breed, like all bull breeds, can only thrive happily and safely with appropriate training and a family that raises them in the right way.
At Royvon, we work with dogs of all breeds, sizes and ages. We love working with puppies and establishing the foundations of a lifetime of enriching training from the very beginning, but this is not always the reality of the dogs we meet. It’s never too late to use dog training to help with obedience, modify behaviour or even handle reactivity, and this has never been more important than it is for the XL Bully breed right now.
We love dogs, and we want to do everything we can to help owners of this strong breed at this tricky time, check out how our Residential Training Programme for American XL Bullies.
American XL Bulldogs are magnificent animals that embody strength and a deep sense of loyalty. This Bulldog niche is unique due to its characteristics, size, and lineage, often setting them apart from other breeds. This powerful breed often attracts a negative perception in the public eye, primarily because of its sturdy appearance and incorrect handling. Despite this, American XL Bullies have a gentle soul and an immense desire to please. They just need guidance to channel their energy and strength in the right direction. Training an American XL Bulldog properly ensures you get a protector, companion, and playful family member.

In the next phase, you join in on the training. Here, we focus on fortifying the bond between you and your American XL Bulldog. We guide you in building a more profound connection, ensuring your Bulldog looks to you for leadership. You receive personalised guidance from experienced professionals that you can put into practice during our hands-on training session. We offer insights to improve your training techniques, establish authority, and achieve your training objectives, ensuring a harmonious life with your American XL Bulldog.
Why train American XL Bullies?
In light of the recent announcement by Prime Minister Rishi Sunak to add the American Bully XL to the UK’s list of banned breeds, training this breed now is more vital than ever. While the ban is heart-wrenching for many, the amnesty ensures that current XL Bully owners can raise the last generation of dogs responsibly. Amnesty conditions include owners registering their dogs and keeping them leashed and muzzled at all times in public.
American Bullies XL are extraordinary creatures. Their muscular strength, bullheadedness, and obstinacy mean they require careful and intelligent training to bypass unwanted behaviours.
Training this breed not only gives them stability but will draw forth their inherent desire to please, emphasising their unmatched loyalty and other positive qualities. In a post-ban world, consistent, reward-based training promotes impeccable behaviour and becomes an essential beacon of responsible ownership, ensuring your Bully stands as a testament to the breed’s true magnificence.
Training American XL Bulldog as Puppies is Paramount
It’s not a secret that American XL Bulldogs, when bred and groomed for the wrong reasons, due to their unique physical capabilities, can become very challenging and potentially dangerous. Therefore, setting the proper foundation during their puppy years is crucial for curbing potential stubborn streaks and harnessing their innate intelligence and power. This breed is naturally eager to please when handled with respect, and reward-based training strategies, such as clicker training, create an unparalleled bond between owner and dog. Contrary to public opinion, this breed seeks understanding and connection at heart. Training puppies early ensures they evolve into the well-mannered, gentle giants they should be.
So, if you’re looking to shape your American bully into a well-mannered dog, choose our residential American XL Bully training in one of our branches at our training centres in Merthyr Tydfil or Esher; let’s reshape the status quo around American XL Bulldogs together.
