Bully types have a high tolerance for rough housing.

Yep my pit mix was playing with my cat just last night and it was hilarious how much she would put up with, and still just be gently nosing him or barely moving her mouth. They were both having a great time.

That isn't a bully. Bully's are short and stocky.

"Bully" refers to the various bulldog and/or terrier breeds as they share a particular phenotype.

they are both bully breeds one is just more squat. Does the AKC recognize the bully as its own breed?

Bully breed is like "hound dog", it's a generic subset of dogs sharing similar traits.

A Pitbull terrier(the dog shown) is not the same as a Bully. If you feel otherwise explain how.

A bully refers to a bully breed. Is that not a bully breed of dog?

"American Bully" is a particular breed. "Bully" refers to American pit bull terriers, american bullies, American staffordshire terriers, bull terriers, American Bulldogs, English Bulldogs, French Bulldogs, Boston bull terriers, and anything else with "bull" in the name.

Edit: think of it like "terrier" or "shepherd" in that it's a term that encompasses several breeds with a lot in common, but a "German shepherd" or "Australian shepherd" means something more specific.
