While the name of this new Molosser is derived from the initials of the American Bulldog breed (AB) and first two letters of the Leavitt Bulldog (LE), the Able Bulldog label is also indicative of what exactly is expected from this creation. A great deal of attention is placed on the intelligence, drive and a stable temperament in the selection of dogs included in the Able Bulldog breeding programme, because this worker shouldn't only be tough, athletic and powerful, but also trainable and willing to please its master. The ideal Able Bulldog is a muscular, well-boned and functional animal, with a large, broad head, well-developed jaws and a reasonably short muzzle, having no difficulty breathing when performing the duties expected of a working dog. Tails are usually docked, but it isn't a requirement.

The coat is short, flat and smooth, preferred in shades of fawn, red, brown, black and brindle, with or without white markings. Uniform white coats are undesired due to an increased risk of health issues such as skin allergies, deafness and cancer observed in such dogs.
The size of Able Bulldogs still varies, but the height should be 19 - 20 inches.
