The foundation of today’s “Exotic Bully” can be attributed to 5 breeds:
BASE BREED: American Bully.
FOUNDATION breeds: American Bully, French Bulldog, Olde English Bulldog, Shorty Bull and English Bulldog.
The crossing between these breeds of foundation, NECESSARILY must be initiated by crossing the BASE BREED “American Bully” with a FOUNDATION BREED (including American Bully itself with “Exotic” phenotype). Thus, forming the first generations of EXOTICS, called F1.
AB = AMERICAN BULLY
EB = EXOTIC BULLY
EB * = EXOTIC BULLY (PURE BY CROSSING)
RF = FOUNDATION BREED
RB = BASE BREED
CROSSING RESULTS:
Formula: Translation:
RB x RB = EB (F1) ……………. Am Bully x Am Bully = Exotic Bully (F1)
RB x RF = EB (F1) ……………. Am. Bully x Foundation Breeds = Exotic Bully (F1)
EB * x RB = EB (F1) ………… ..Exotic Bully Pure x American Bully = Exotic Bully (F1)
EB * x RF = EB (F1) ………… ..Exotic Bully Pure x Foundation Breeds = Exotic Bully (F1)
After the Exotic Bully F1 has been established, to progress towards those considered “Pure by Crossing”, one generation must be added to each lower generation:
EB * x F1 = F2 ………………… .. Exotic Bully Pure x Exotic Bully (F1) = Exotic Bully (F2)
EB * x F2 = F3 …………………. Exotic Bully Pure x Exotic Bully (F2) = Exotic Bully (F3)
EB * x F3 = F4 (EB *) ………… Pure Exotic Bully x Exotic Bully (F3) = Exotic Bully (F4) *
F1 x F1 = F2 ……………………. Exotic Bully (F1) x Exotic Bully (F1) = Exotic Bully (F2)
F1 x F2 = F2 ……………………. Exotic Bully (F1) x Exotic Bully (F2) = Exotic Bully (F2)
F1 x F3 = F2 ……………………. Exotic Bully (F1) x Exotic Bully (F3) = Exotic Bully (F2)
F2 x F2 = F3 ……………………. Exotic Bully (F2) x Exotic Bully (F2) = Exotic Bully (F3)
F2 x F3 = F3 ……………………. Exotic Bully (F2) x Exotic Bully (F3) = Exotic Bully (F3)
F3 x F3 = F4 (EB *) …………… Exotic Bully (F3) x Exotic Bully (F3) = Exotic Bully (F4) *
F1 = EXOTIC BULLY FIRST GENERATION
F2 = EXOTIC BULLY SECOND GENERATION
F3 = EXOTIC BULLY THIRD GENERATION
F4 = EXOTIC BULLY CONSIDERED “PURE BY CROSSING”
NOTE 1: The ONLY combination between “Pure Breed” parents that can generate an “Exotic Bully F1”, are dogs with “American Bully” pedigree and “Exotic” characteristics, in which case the breeders will undergo evaluation.
IMPORTANT TO KNOW: Once these dogs are registered in the Genealogical Records as “Exotic Bully”, they will NOT be any of the other pure breeds again.
IBC takes the opportunity to encourage breeders to choose the BEST specimens to be introduced in this new gene pool, breeders should aim to IMPROVE, aiming to produce genetically healthy dogs, with typical and balanced temperament, in search of the desired dog.
