INTRODUCTION:
Kali has a soft but feisty, no-quit attitude that is hilarious to watch and she is loyal to her core. She is extremely agile, athletic and talented and we can't wait to see what the future has in store for her and her progeny. Kali came to us from Hammerline Kennels in Missouri, USA. She is currently the most health tested female American Bully to date and has passed every single test we have thrown at her, which is a huge accomplishment for the breed! We are incredibly proud of her.
Kali has done nothing but make us proud every time we enter her in a sport, whether its rally obedience or weight pull, she pulls out all the stops and always makes us look good. We are proud of her accomplishments, but still very excited to see what the future has in store for her!

APPEARANCE:
Kali is very proportionate, extremely functional and built to last. Her eyes are a deep brown and she carries beautiful white markings on her face, neck, chest and all four feet. One of my favorite attributes of hers are her shoulders - structure specifics aside, I just love the way they "pop" from the front! Overall Kali is put together extremely well, and it shows when you see her move. She is extremely light on her feet, very agile and moves with purpose - there is no wasting of energy with her, she makes every step and movement count! We get body workers (osteopath, massage therapist, etc.) out for our dogs as we feel that is an important part of keeping a canine athlete happy - bumps, bruises, trips and compensations are all part of the program when exercising your dogs heavily, but get this...we have NEVER been charged for someone to work on Kali. In fact, we have had multiple people sit in awe over how sound and "happy" her body is, she has even been used as an example dog to students where the instructor said "you will likely never feel a dog like this again, but THIS is what we are trying to make dogs feel like when they come to see us." She may not be the most impressive "wow" factor looking dog out there, but she is absolutely built to last and with structural integrity and longevity being a pinnacle of our program, we are extremely thankful to have Kali in our program.

PERSONALITY:
Kali's personality is probably my favorite thing about her. She really works her butt off to please her human and she will do just about anything for a treat. She is extremely easy to train and she can pick up a new trick very quickly. Always up for an adventure or a snuggle, she doesn't complain either way and is just happy to be here. She is very playful and extremely easy going with humans, dogs, puppies, cats, livestock, and everything in between. She is our "do anything" dog in every sense of the word. We have placed Kali with friends while out on vacation and she integrates into their lifestyle with their dogs without so much as a hiccup - she truly makes friends everywhere she goes, human and dog alike. Kali is our designated "puppy sitter" and loves taking on the role whenever we give her the opportunity. She is very appropriate with her interactions and we love that she teaches our puppies about what clear, appropriate canine communication looks like, as American Bullies tend to suck at that. She is genuinely a real pleasure to own and hang out with.
One would probably assume that she is high drive based on her accomplishments and how much she excels at literally everything we put her in...but that is not the case. Her work ethic makes up for her lower energy/drive and she brings a very competitive edge to everything she does. She is a rock solid obedience dog and then can turn around and put in tons of effort on the weight pull track or anything we throw her way. With her high drive to please and no-quit attitude, she is super fun and competitive in sports and we can't wait to add more titles to her resume!

All health test results are available online. If we are not the breeder for you that is perfectly fine, but make sure that you "fact check" your future breeder to make sure that they are not using fancy words or lying about their dog's tests.
