Re: Staffies and the like
I agree with you Rose.Re: Staffies and the like
It's not the staffies I am so worried about but the larger crosses they are creating mastiff/staffie is popular here and they are fearsome creatures with very little of the docility of a staffie. The one here nearly killed my old Mollie, attacked her and even when she was submitting terrified still bit and gouged her stomach so badly the vet was amazed she survived. Ruined her last year of life as our beautiful happy friendly girls became so fearful and unhappy if we tried to take her out.Re: Staffies and the like
Re: Staffies and the like
Some people put more thought into chosing a two week holiday than they do chosing a suitable breed of dog they are likely to have for around 14 years .Re: Staffies and the like
Any dog, even the smallest one, has the potential to be aggressive if not properly trained. The trouble is so many people think once they've brought a dog into their home that's where their responsibility ends, when in fact it's just beginning. Dogs don't train themselves, you need time patience and money to have a well balanced and sociable dog.Re: Staffies and the like
Whilst it may seem unfair to demonise a particular breed, it is hard to ignore the fact that some breeds are more disposed to certain traits than others, and for all the good qualities that staffies may have, it is all too common for mixed breeds used as attack or fighting dogs to have some Staffordshire Bull Terrier mixed in them somewhere.Re: Staffies and the like
I am a cat person who happens to quite fond of dogs as well. Staffies are nice if well trained. Not every Rottweiler is almost as scary as an angry woman with PMT. Dogs need to be trained and if I had my way the genes us dumb humans bred into certain breeds should be bred out. And some human owners should be stopped from breeding and I do not mean dogs.
