8:46 i’ve had Pitbulls and Staffy bull terriers practically all my life. I started with the American Staffordshire terrier that my son brought home that nobody wanted. She was a brindle, and then my son’s girlfriend got a gray pitbull, and when they no longer could keep the dogs I adopted them. As the years went by I kept adopting the Pitbulls. I’ve had them for many years, and I’m always so sad when they die. They made me so happy to have them part of the family. They were wonderful loving family dogs, so as I got older and I became unable to walk anymore, I bought a golf cart and my recent staffy bullterrier runs beside it as I drive. He is so happy and lovable, he wants me to do this every single day and I if the weather is good we will go. They are the best breed of dog I have ever wanted. My recent staffy’s name is Jax. ❤

When I was 8, I found 3 abandoned stafffy puppies in the alley. I took them home, and they all grew up to be beautiful and strong. We kept the boy and rehomed the two females to family. The Boy was named Chulo and he was an absolutely monster. He was so muscular and had stamina for days. He used to pull me on rollerblades for hours. He onced faught two loose dogs that ran at me when we were on one of our walks. He did not let them get close to me and absolutely destroyed the other two dogs. One was a Rottweiler and the other was some sort of Shepherd mix. He died at around 12 from health issues.

My family has owned pit bulls, German Rottweilers, and shi-tzus my whole life, so when I took the amstaff home for a dog visit day, she acted NOTHING like the Pitts I've owned in the past, so I started doing research and I am so thankful I now know I can register her as an amstaff, (my apartment managers are assholes to pittbulls) I can't wait to go get her!!

We have a staffy, brindle, she is so attached to my husband that I know if something would happen to one the other would not make it. She will be 3 in April. We got her at 10 weeks and even then she would make him go to sleep with her every night around 10. Bailey just had a litter of 10 puppies on December 13th, the daddy was a pit, gorgeous. She has one that looks just like him. Anyways, my question is what should I go with, a Staff Pitt Bull or just say half and half?

I've breed pitbulls and staffies. I adored my Pitbulls, but they need way more attention. If you take them out in public, you must always be aware of what your dog is looking at. I never had a bad experience with the pitbulls, but that's because i was always on my guard. And I spent lots of time training them. Staffies have become my favorite, by far. I have property, but I can leave them outside all day and they never go past the boundaries. We have hundreds of sheep, on the otherside of the fence, but they never bother with them. We have several horse on the other side, but again, the staffies aren't phased, and simply socialize with the horses. Going up to the fence to say hello. Staffies will eagerly play all day, or, just lay about in the sun, or the shade. They are great with my grandkids, and put up with anything. My oldest dog (whom I've spent 12 years with is the smartest dog I've ever seen). He follows a dozen hand signals, and knows hundreds of words and commands. I've also breed blue and red healers, of which I had some very smart dogs, but no smarter than the staffie. The difference is the healers would bite my kids when they were toddlers. I much prefer the trusted staffie.

It's also pleasant to hear someone talk about american bulls without just calling them killing machines and talking about the ACTUAL problem of bad owners. Every dog is wonderful and different in its own way. And people need to learn how to accommodate their dog with training instead of just buying it and just staring at it all day.

The problem is that "pitbull" seems to mean 2 things in America. It can mean "American Pitbull Terriers," but that's usually only among dog enthusiasts. The second meaning is "pitbull-type," which means all dogs of a certain appearance. I'm betting less than 1% of America's "pitbulls" are registered Pitbulls, but the second meaning has taken hold. I'm glad you're educating your friends, because dogs keep dying due to the "pitbull-type" use of the word. Imagine if all the so-called pitbulls in shelters were just labeled as mixes or cross-breeds, instead of an age-old scareword that has been hyped up by the media for decades.

I've had Pitbulls and Staffies, not a lot between them. Choke chains, back in the day (sorry), halties and harnesses had little effect in stopping them pulling. Sooo, back to basics. The leash is a command, dog sits at your side, leash is attached while the dog stays in position and the step forward is the visual command to walk at heel backed up with the verbal command. When (if) the dog is walking at heel I let the slack leash touch the shoulder, it reinforces the correct position. To get to this point I bore the dog into obedience. When it loads the leash up I give a soft verbal rebuke and gentle tug on the leash. Inevitably that fails so it's back to sit and heel. When the dog ignores the rebuke it's sit, stay, heel. Rinse repeat. A short walk can last a long time but I've managed to get every dog to heel on a slack leash with this slow and patient method. A pocket full of high value treats helps a lot if you walk a measured distance and reward the heel at the end.

Everything isn't a Pitbull. Stop Mislabeling dog breeds. Every breed has there a short way of saying its breed. Only uneducated people say the stupid stuff out of their mouths. Pit Bull is a short way of saying American Pit Bull Terriers. Pit Bull isn't a Blanket, Umbrella, or Category for multiple Breeds. That is a lie and we don't lie here. Bulldogs are Blanket, Umbrella, Category, and Group for Multiple Breeds. Terriers are Blanket, Umbrella, Category, and Group for Multiple Breeds. Mastiffs Blanket, Umbrella, Category, Group for Multiple Breeds. Shepherd Blanket, Umbrella, Category, Group for Multiple Breeds. Common sense but most of you people do not have common sense and you’re on Think past zero. Everything isn’t a Pitbulls. Stop Mislabeling dogs breeds. If you don’t have a pedigree = MuttBulls. Pit bulls are animal aggressive and not human-aggressive. UKC and ADBA dogs are American Staffordshire Terriers, Staffordshire Bull Terriers Mix, American Bullys, American Bandog Mastiffs, and American Bandogge Mastiffs Tagged and Hanged under the Breed American Pit Bull Terriers. Everything isn’t a Pitbull. Pit Bulls Aren’t Blue, Gray, Merle, or Tri-Color. Pit Bulls have Bruce Lee's Body and Narrow Heads. Pit Bulls are Animal Aggressive and Not Human Aggressive. Pit Bulls isn’t a Blanket or Umbrella Term. Pit Bulls is a Short way of Saying American Pit Bull Terriers.

All I did was offer to play with him and we did for less than an hour. Took him home and after a short period of checking out his new home nestled up to me and went to sleep. Now I don't know what I would do without him. He's very attentive and eager to please has a moderate prey drive and has helped with some vermin on the farm. His favorite prey are Pheasant and Partridge which he has yet to catch not for lack of trying, it's so interesting to watch him stock the birds. I think he would make a great hunting dog but most of all he's great companion.

Well, his mother is Staff, his father is Dalmatian, and he is Staffie shaped ( mostly but its closer to pit bull shape if Im honest ) but with Dalmatian Colours, including perfectly symetrical black eyes ) - He is absolutely adorable and a real Lady magnet. The only thing I have issues with, is that he has been a real pain to train. He is 18 months now and he is getting there, but its really hard work! He loves to run at people and dogs, but he only wants to play, and tyhat can be intimidating to people and to the dogs too! I have mostly got him to a level where I tell him to WAIT or STAY and he drops to the floor and stares at the other dog ( he still runs up to people ) and most of the time, he will wait until the dog has passed, but if the other dog shows ANY attention to him, he goes. This is really annoying me, and I am always ending up saying that he is not vicious and he isnt, he is a bloody softie, but people are sometimes genuinely scared of him just because he does look a bit pit bull-ish. But I love him and he absolutely adores me and so the idea that I could rehome him, is simply not even a thing... That will NEVER happen.

I have a 12yo Staffordshire. I adopted her from a friend who couldn’t keep her. She’s been a fantastic dog and it’ll be a long time before I get another pet after she passes because of how irreplaceable she is. Also it’s good her fur doesn’t accumulate too much dirt because she absolutely hates taking baths. 😂

Before 1935 our uk dogs looked the same as irish and American dogs dna and RNA testing will tell you they are the same breed.The irish and English took our dogs to the USA.The Pitbull Staffordshire terrier Staffordshire bull terrier are the same .There are breeders in the south of the uk that have lines going back 160 years and the dogs look the same not show standard they look like pitbulls old time Staffordshire bull terriers.The irish have kept the Staffordshire bull terrier the same as the American breeders .In 1956 to 57 30 English Staffordshire bull terriers were brought over to the USA for bigger heads and chests for the show dogs.Most channels give you wrong information.None show bred Staffordshire bull terriers can be up to 70 80lbs here in the northeast England theres loads.Ive had Staffordshire bull terriers up to 93lbs at 4 yr old and in the 90s i had bred the biggest tallest old time Staffordshire bull terriers or American pitbulls people call tbem.

We've recently had a puppy come into care needing surgery and we think she's some kind of stafford. We are doing our best to take her everywhere and expose her to many people, dogs, animals, vehicles and so on. She's definitely very friendly and gentle natured, but we want to try and foster that as much as possible.

@@ACJr7 In America the "pit bull" is separate from the American Staffordshire bull Terrier. The UKC recognized APBT or American Pit Bull Terrier as it's own breed. They're still very similar but American Pit Bull breeders have their own standards and bloodlines they use to differentiate and establish them as two separate breeds.

I have a Staffy and he's the softest, freidnliest dog i've ever had, my daughter was only 4 when I got him as a pup and he loves her so much and he loves her firends visiting, he plays on the trampoline with them too, he will defend himself against dogs that bite him, thankfully I've always had him on the lead on the few occasions he has being bit, but, he always assumes other dsogs will play with him, and cats actually, oh, lets not forget, he gives great hugs, not kidding at all, he often comes over to place his head over my shoulder and stays there with his wagging tail

I have a large rednose pitbull. And for someone who is high energy myself he works great. But I'd admit his specific line of pitbulls are not for everyday dog owners. He's powerfull, intelligent, pushing 90 lbs, and has the energy and drive of a well bred jack Russell. My wife and son can't take him on a casual walk because they simply are not strong enough to stop him if another animal flips his switch. They're one squirrel away from a broken tail bone. And I have hard wood and his zoomys are so powerfull he slid once and busted through my reptile tank and the sheetrock. I've had my head busted open to the skull playing. (He headbutted me with his teeth, immediately looked like someone told him santa wont real lol)I've been drug down hills. He can snap cattle bones in half so playing tug of war with something small is dangerous and thats not his fault.Let's just say those first two years would have been to much for people not used to hounds or working dogs etc and he'd have found himself in the pound for no reason other than he's alot of dog and required alot of patience and confidence to train and socialize. All in all everyone is amazed at his temperament, guardian traits, physicality, power all while not realizing I know them and they would have sent him to the pound by around 1 year old for being a good dog with no leadership cause they think companion/pet line traits are "good". Personally I think those traits say the dogs retarded. Non aggressive, accepting of strangers, lethargic, submissive, reactive (with fear or anxienty). imo a dog thats ganna be a legend is full of wanderlust from born to 1. And a straight hellraiser 1-2. By 5 Years old you'll have a beast. I'm not sure about other places but here in VA dog fighting was very active well into the early 2000s so many of our local lines are directly traced back to fighters. Within only a few generations. I'm not not sure if that effects our pool of "putbulls" physically or mentally in comparison to a general pitbull from say north Carolina which tend to look and act more like hounds.

I adopted a 5 month old part female Lab (80%) and part Staffy (20%) that just turned 8 months old. However she is much more Staffy in appearance. My other dog is a 3 year old male part Australian Cattle dog and Brittany Spaniel that looks just like a Dingo except the ears are down. Touching to see how much they like each other. They play off and on all day in the house and back yard. I am retired so take them for a couple walks a day that adds up to 1 1/2 to 2 hours a day. It’s crazy how strong she is and seems not to care if she tumbles down the stairs or off the couch. She is still young and does not know her strength. The male dog on occasion is like a bowling pin when the “tank” runs into him. Funny but concerning. He lets her know when he’s had enough. Her lab genetics makes her a powerful swimmer when I go to the lake. Came back from a week by a lake where she swam about 3 hours a day. She likes to put her head under the water. Is this a Staffy trait too?

The difference between staffs and pit bulls are always vague. I’ve never heard anyone give an account for how the staff got its long legs. I have a 3/4 staff 1/4 greyhound. People who are in the know think she’s pinball.Makes a lot of sense when you think the best fighting dogs came from Ireland and the Irish are also keen for hunting.I’m suggesting the origin of the pitbul came from designing a lurcher …. A greyhound to catch up and the staff for the attack = a pit bull is born

@Rich Pedley - the reason you've never heard an account of how the SBT got it's long legs is, SBT don't have long legs, thus no one has talked about it. The SBT is a compact dog. The Pit bull has nothing to do with the Lurcher or the Greyhound.

Geez I don't kmow if I have a Staffie an AmStaff an American Bully or Bull Staff. One has a slightly longer muzzle is eternally patient, loves and recoginzies smaller weaker critters, and is super energentic, loves to run, and exercise. The other is more snub muzzled, a born leader, and makes sure the other one knows its place. However, has no where near the prey drive, or exercise needs of the other. Both are extremtly loyal and affectionate. Any ideas out there, KZbin land? I adore them both.

adopted a staffy back in 2011. he recently died and was looking for another. found a woman on gumtree who was selling her almost 3 year old 'staffy' due to her landlord throwing them out and with a reasonable price i said yes and took him. but the more i look the more he does not look like a staffy. people in the street when on walks have told me he looks like a pitbull. i always thought of pitbulls to be aggressive and nothing like the staff. but he's so well trained and loving. he loves to play and give kisses and sleep on my lap. but now i'm concerned that he may be a pit because of what people have been saying and as i live in the uk the pitbull breed is apparently banned over here and i'm afraid he might be forced to get put down. he is such a playful little guy and one of the cutest puppers i've owned. he's a gorgeous golden brown colour with golden eyes and a reddish/orange nose. which also makes me think he is not full staff as staffs only have black noses. but i'm just worried. i feel like i was scammed into believing this dog is a staff but it would also explain the low price he was sold for if she lied to get rid of him. i really don't want him to be put to sleep but i need to know what breed he is

My Pitbull has proven that chewing is the way to go when he is bored. He has destroyed all his toys. His main goal it to take their "heart" out AKA the squeaker, has chew all his beds and blankets, the chairs, couch, cardboard, pens, pencils, sticks, clothing, shoes, you name it, and recently has started on vinyl flooring. He gets exercised, but to get him tired for a few hours happens when he gets to play with other dogs, he absolutely loves it.
