The Bully Kutta or Bully[1] or Indian Alangu Mastiff.[2] is a descendant of the extinct Alaunt that originated from the Sindh and Punjab regions of present-day Pakistan, where they are the most common guard-dog. The word Bully derives from the word bohli meaning heavily wrinkled in Hindi/Punjabi, while the word Kutta means dog in South-Asian languages.

The Bully Kutta is predominantly white in color, however fawn, brindle, brown, black and various bicolors are also common. Bully Kutta can also be red nosed/yellow eyed but these are rare. Generally, a Bully Kutta stands 30"-33" tall. Usually they have large heads, strong bone structure, and loose, and stretchy skin.
