The story of the Staffordshire Bull Terrier is a relatively brief one in the grand scheme of canine history, but it can be confused by the several different names hung on the breed at various times. The Bull-and-Terrier, the Patched Fighting Terrier, the Staffordshire Pit-dog, and the Brindle Bull are a few of the Stafford’s historical aliases.
Staffordshire Bull Terriers are among the AKC terriers, such as the Bull Terrier and American Staffordshire Terrier, classified as “bull types.” All have a similar backstory. A few centuries ago, in the days when betting on the outcome of dog-oriented blood sports was all the rage in England, gamblers bred ferocious dogs to excel in these ghastly affairs. The granddaddy of these breeds was the Bulldog, created for the horrifying spectacle of bull-baiting.
Life expectancy: 12 – 14 years
Colors: Black, White, Brindle, Fawn, Black & White, Blue, Brindle & White, Red & White, Fawn & White, Red, Blue & White
Temperament: Affectionate, Bold, Intelligent, Reliable, Fearless, Loyal, Courageous
Weight: Female: 24–34 lbs (11–15 kg), Male: 28–37 lbs (13–17 kg)
Height: Female: 13–15 inches (33–38 cm), Male: 14–16 inches (36–41 cm)
This breed’s temperament is described as tough, courageous, tenacious (read: stubborn), and curious. A people-loving personality makes him a good caretaker of his family, but he’s less likely to be protective of property.

I have a staffordshire terrier mix— she’s got cattle dog, chow & cocker spaniel her body is very compact like the staffordshire and she’s quite the character!!
I hate dogs
watching my 11 year old rescue, thinking i didn’t save you … you saved me!!! 8 years of loyalty and devotion you’d never imagine possible. i’ve added a fawn puppy now 1 year old that my older boy fathered and schooled . watching his health sudddnly decline …. i can’t even think of how it will be never own anything other now
I think the original breed was to bait bears has well has Bulls….my family has bred Staffy bull terriers for generations…we've had championship winners in our litters…I come from Staffordshire in the UK… We have 4 lines with all the Males being pure Black and White with not 1 brindle Hair in them which is very rare…My Staffy and his dad and his dad and his dad all had white heads with a black circular marking on top of there heads….4 generations have this rare marking….I've had breeders travel from all over the UK and Ireland to breed there bitches with my Staffy…he's 17 now and he's still like a puppy energy wise and is has virile now has he was when he was 12 months old…he has fathered 5 litters and every litter has produced pure black and white puppies …usualy they have brindle colour mixed in but not in mine
They feel the need to protect and when on the lead they can be over protective around others so the way to stop that is train them off the lead from 12 weeks old and socialise them with other dog breeds when out walking….all my Staffys have been trained of the lead and taught to walk by my side when out for exercise….when there on leads and other dogs are running about they can be over protective so if you associate walks and exercise has time to play they run around with other dogs with no issues….training them properly from 10 to 12 weeks old is the key….my 17 year old walks next to me everywhere we go and he has never got aggressive when bigger dogs run up to us….people especially women who have no experience shouldn't have a Staffy if they are fearful of other breeds when out walking…has your Staffy will pick up on there fear and be over protective…owners are the problem not the breed….
the staffy is the most popular animal shelter dog. stop breeding them!
How do I make a puppy stand ford not bite we’re he pees and how to make him do his necessary’s in the pads
Best dogs in the world
Would you recommend this dog for a truck driver?
Incredibly loving.
I have had 3 Staffordshire bull terrier dogs and still have one love ❤️ my Staff. Before I got my first Staff I had a Jack Russell terrier I had a friend that had a staffordshire bull terrier and that’s how I got into the breed. Great dogs.
i have a brindle stuffy and he is so loving and him and my blue nose get along great
Awsome
Recently got one was told it was a pit mix but I've had dogs all my life and when I saw it I knew it wasn't a pit that it was a Staffordshire she is the most loving fat headed old girl you would ever meet, loves to roll on you and get tummy 💕 love, Lol! Got her after losing a pit/mix that literally broke my heart, swore I wouldn't have another dog but my wife found this one up for adoption I didn't want to love her but I do, she is so funny and I can't imagine her ever being anything but loving.
They are relentless!
I own one and he is my best bud he also has light brown fur with a white stripe down his chest. But he is probably one of the rarest types.
*Capable dog
My female staffy is 8 months old and weighs about 50 lbs. You can't tell by looking at her but I guess she is all muscle
Staffy cannot swim? Please make me clear
I grew up with 3 of them. They are sweet dogs!
I would look for temperament first..some staffies especially blue can have behaviour issues ..most are probably OK though..
Single dog home???
Staffies look like midgets. Huge heads and necks, small legs ahahaha
I have a 2 year old (Oct. 11th) Brindle Female who is 35lbs, solid, sinewy and very agile and athletic. she is LOYAL, attentive, Courageous and very intelligent. she loves and protects my FAMILY, and adores my grandchildren and is people friendly. GOD spelled Backwards ~ 😇 ""
Had one when I was 12. His name was Tazz but died young. He resembled Jock of the Bushveld and I miss him🙏🏾
I want a Staffordshire so bad, but among many other reasons to dislike living in Ontario, they're banned here :/
so sweet i love this breed they so intelegent breed
I’m thinking of getting a staffy.
Average cost ?
A landlady had a large Staffie called Peggy. White, with a large black spot on her back! Peggy and were inseparable, she loved lying across my legs as I watched TV, and her dainty little paws rarely touched the floor when in the house! She was that strong when out walking that I had to tie a thick blue nylon tow- rope to her lead! Yes, a tow -rope!
One day a man in the park hit her with a shovel, but she didn't even bark, or try to attack him in defence. A real test of her true nature. I was in tears, but Peggy turned out fine. I still miss her years later 🐕❤️🐕❤️🐕❤️
Loved my staffy was my daughters best friend they grew up together very loyal good family dog very strong and energetic but very high prey instinct like you say
Also, when hiking , they do overheat very easily.
I have a 13 year old fawn female. That still has a lot left in her. Best dog in the world!
My staffy way bigger than 25 pounds mines 70 built like a tank also way taller
The bonie Black bell…I've had one ….go for the runt ,they'll know you saved em ,build em up …loyalty. bond is strong
Im Rey get a American staffy mix with a Rhodesian ridgeback can somebody give me a review of who them to breed are mixed please
I want a staffordshire bull terrier so badly but my city doesn’t allow them
Good channel for information and infotainment, thanks from Holland, Europe.
One thing you gotta watch with Staffordshire bull terriers is that they are very capable of killing another dog even if it is much larger than they are. They might not even start fights with other dogs but if another dog starts a fight with them they are completely capable of ending the other dogs life. I've seen 1 almost kill a 100 pound German shepherd who attacked him first and the Staffordshire bull terrier only weighed 40 pounds. That's less than half the weight of the German shepherd. The German shepherd survived but it was severely injured.
