Which is the most "bully" breed (to you or from experience) ?

It always depends on the owners and how they commit to obedience training the dog. I have 2 male, unneutered Rotties and they are awesome. They are gentle and patient.

The Pit Bull is the only "Bully" breed of the three. But that is not to be confused with "Bully" as in school yard "Bully". All three breeds are capable of being great dogs if they have responsible owners who train and socialize them properly.
I am so tired of all the press focusing on the Pit Bull. What they would do better to focus on when reporting on Pit Bulls, is the people that own the ones that attack. Usually they are irresponsible, sometimes drug dealers or dog fighters. That is not the breeds fault and does not represent the majority of people that own the breed.
Also, when reported, quite often the offending dog is one that looks like a Pit Bull or is mixed with one. Sometimes it isn't anything more than a short haired mixed breed, not even any Pit in it. Any dog breed can be dangerous if it roams at large, is improperly fed,is not adequately socialized and trained. Instead of focusing on the breed, I'd like to see more focus on the offending owners.

Hmm.. I haven't had any bad expierences with any of them, and I own a Pit Bull and Rottweiler and I foster 2 dobermans.. All are very sweet..
But Pit Bulls are the only real "Bully breed."

I don't think that any of them are "bullies". Personally, I have a doberman. He is the biggest sweet heart ever. He weighs more than me (i'm 115lbs) and he never tries to bully me! My neighbor has a pit bull. He tried to bite my doberman once when we were out walking, but he has never tried to attack people. I think it's all about how they are raised. These three dogs get a bad reputation because of their uses in the military or by gangsters. But half the reason for their uses in the military or police forces is because of their ability to be trained!

i got bit in the face by a dobie when I was little. my friend had a rottie that attacked and almost ripped off a kids face. I have not met a mean pitt bull yet. But I would not have any of them in my house. I want my outdoor guard dog to be a bull mastiff. Sweet, gentle with kids and huge enough to scare any robber.

the pit is the only 'bully breed' u listed....unless u mean the bully who picks on everyone.?????
none of them. the real bully is the people who get any dog and think they train themselves...or get the stronger breeds for protection....and think they can 'train' it to protect and use the wrong means of training. then the dog turns on someone and its the owners fault...but get belamed on the dog/breeds
and yes i've worked with all of them breeds, many of them come in to shelters with problems....but most of the problems can be worked out....with some training...and a leader....thats all a dog wants is someone to tell them what to do....its what we have bred them for is it not? most all dogs once had jobs and it wasn't to be couch potatos. even companion breeds at least moused....

Do you mean like a nasty bully on the playground? I would say probably Rotts (Dobermans are big babies!), but any breed of dog can be that way.
