Our Bullies
Thanks for visiting
Born in 1972 and raised on a 25-acre cattle farm in North Lebanon, Oregon, I developed a deep understanding of breeding and genetics. In 1988, I was introduced to the American Pit Bull Terrier through my uncle and father, leading to my first litter in 1990 from Blaze, a 75-lb athletic pit bull. From 1990 to 1996, we focused on athletic but thick bloodlines before shifting to heavier builds, incorporating Amber Light Bogun, Ginny York’s blood, and O.G. Greyskull.
Over the past 35 years, Bully Gang Pitbulls evolved into Bully Gang Originals, now producing pocket-size bullies and Exotics with Anthony Washington, Jermaine Oliver, and Justin Rosenbaum. With a foundation built on dogs like Dewgan, Creeper, Cruella, Cheyenne, and Blaze, we continue to produce short, thick, and wide bullies with correct structure, movement, and breathing.
