How do I create a black tri American Bully?

Creating a black tri American Bully like Betty requires careful breeding that targets specific genetic traits. The black tri coat pattern combines a solid black base with tan points and white markings. This look is the result of recessive genes, which means both parent dogs must carry the necessary traits for the color to appear in the litter.

To produce black tri Bully puppies, both sire and dam must carry two copies of the tan point gene (at/at). This gene controls the tan markings that show above the eyes, on the cheeks, chest, and legs. For the base coat to be black, the dogs must not carry dilution or chocolate genes, which would otherwise produce colors like blue, lilac, or chocolate tri.

Because the tri-color pattern is recessive, it may remain hidden in bloodlines unless both parents carry it. That’s why many XL American Bully breeders use DNA testing to confirm genetic potential before breeding. This reduces guesswork and helps ensure a consistent litter.

In addition to color, a true Bully XL must meet size standards. That includes heavy bone structure, a wide chest, a muscular build, and a blocky head. Producing a black tri Bully XL means selecting dogs that meet both color requirements and physical expectations.

A quality breeder won’t focus on color alone. They’ll choose breeding pairs based on structure, health, temperament, and long-term goals. When done right, the result is not just a rare color but a well-built, balanced, and stable dog.

If you’re looking to breed or buy black tri American Bully puppies, choose a kennel like Topdog Bullies that prioritizes health and structure, and understands the genetics behind the color. Rarity means nothing without quality behind it.
