Statement of Intent and Execution- American Bully

Thursday, 16 April 2026

It is with delight that the Federal Council of KUSA and the KUSA Office are able to inform the members of the American Bully community that, after a period of discussions and negotiations with representatives of the American Bully collective of owners and breeders, KUSA shall, as from 1 May 2026, accept voluntary applications from owners and breeders of American Bullies (Pocket) and American Bullies (Standard) to register their dogs on KUSA’s Breed Appendix Register.

The above milestone has been reached after persistent appeals from members of the American Bully community to register, or dual register, their dogs with KUSA, even though American Bullies are not (yet) a recognised breed under the Fédération Cynologique Internationale (FCI). To reach this point, KUSA obviously had to engage extensively with the FCI and FCI National Canine Organisations (NCOs), which had succeeded in accommodating American Bullies on their Appendix Registers by availing themselves of certain FCI flexibilities afforded to member countries.
