Bred for looks,and music videos, no sporting ability whatsoever.... Massive money spinner for the plastic prankster gangsters..... Few lads got them in good shape.... But they Don't look so good without the cropped ears...they look like a fat staff/am bulldog x.... Every cnut round here got them... And a frenchie After i spoke to the lad i got home and googled them and it was either short,squat little British Bulldog looking monstrosities or completely over conditioned athletic types i did wonder what sport/work they did........so that would be nothing then i presume Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Spot on mate, staffs have gone bit simlar more so the KC show stuff, what we had when I was a lad in w-ton were the old type staffs, as we're from 16- 19in 40-55lb, they were more like bulldogs=apbt of today. To be honest I rather get well bred bulldog, 1st, or a old type staff, or a 1x pit xgrey if wanted a healthy type bull breed, never in a month of Sundays would I have them American Bully bag of shit.! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yes that's fine ray but not everyone works their dogs I know people who wouldn't want a collie grey or a gsd grey it's horses for courses. believe it or not mate people do just have dogs as pets.

I agree i dont think i could ever own a bull bred dog again i dont think i could ever look a dog in the eye with any kind of respect knowing its just a shadow of its ancestry i remember as kids getting hold of crappy little show bred staffs and slinging them at each other round the back of the garages they would stick to each other for 10 minutes but now lads seem to think one is deeply game if it barks at cats !.....even physically i havent seen a Stafford in years that i thought was pleasing to the eye conformation wise.....i always think regardless whether a dog is for pet,work or bit of both you still like to think you have a good representative that can do what it was designed to do if the opportunity arose.

Funny thing I was watching Buck run around the other day playing with lab type young bitch, the bloke was really surprised how Buck covered the ground with ease. But the thing I thought was great about his movement, he just seemed to move on the ground lovley a d smooth, you never see a pure gsd move like him, maybe them. East European gsd might me. Near to him, but as we said before most gsd show stuff crap, you need a out x like Buck just to get a healthy type gsd, it sad really how the breed been. Fooked up, the gsd in the 60s were 100% better dogs. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That's you mate i f memory serves me right you were involved with real bulldogs so you have a certain standard but Carol and Mick down the road don't care if the dog can do 2 hours in the box it's just a pet Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Black and tan staffs are not uncommon mate. My mate, sadly passed away about four years ago of cancer, used to breed and show staffs. He had a couple of black and tans, absolute belters, in a couple of litters he bred. You're right, the kc don't like em. Nuts really, cos some of em are superb dogs Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Saltmoon 2,208 Posted June 4, 2020 Report Share Posted June 4, 2020 Was have a look this morning like alot if of us I just like a look every now and then and I was beyond shocked at some prices I saw Jack Russell's 1250 notes!!! A 6 month old Springer 4000 notes the price of these dogs are just mental saluki greyhound 1200 pound what is wrong with people. But like always people will and do pay these prices.
