YOKEL 2,234 Posted March 24, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 I got carried away with things a few years ago and came to the conclusion that a stafford had no part to play in where i wanted to go with the dogs and thats the reason i let the wee fella above go. with hindsight, he was probably the best dog i'd had around me,(and i had some very well bred stuff at the time.) not a world beater, but a good honest dog with out reverse. good to see the old warrior has a good home and looking well.

lukeh 27 Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 my family had the stafford stuff years ago and to what we thought was extrememly good at what they done and how they performed.. but when they first introduced the pitbull and saw them do what they do best that was when my uncle n dad stopped usuing the staffs.. i got nothing against them i think they are fantastic dogs ... but imo it was pitbull all the way for me thats what i have been bought up with fantastic dogs couldnt ask for a more loyal dog 1 Quote Link to post

countryman5 5 Posted March 25, 2010 Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 (edited) just feel that most people that keep dogs like that do it to make them look tough and a cant see much of a place for them as workers. well your wrong. they are TERRIERS at the end of the day. they work cover, hunt up well, good marking earths, love chasing stuff infact the only thing they cant do that a patterdale can is get to ground cause of there size. bull terriers have as much place in the field than any other dog why do you think there are so many crossed with greyhounds,whippets and other terriers?? a good bull terrier would be a liability out in the field,a fired up bull would result in maimed lurchers and terriers,dont think bushing is whats called work for a bull terrier mate,now a bull lurcher can do anything a bull can,catch draw etc,and a ten lb fox isnt realy a match for a game bred dog,for one they fight with quarry rather than try to kill it,and get more bitten than a lurcher or terrier would do,and thats from years of experience with bulls which yours are not by the look of them!!now put your cap on and go and sell some crack Edited March 25, 2010 by countryman5 Quote Link to post
