Hello

Looking to purchase a Staffordshire bull terrier puppy. Pref under 20 weeks old.

Would like the pup to be all white or blue. Sex not important

It has been 2 years since my Staff passed away and feel the family is ready to love another beautiful little Staff.

Good home awaits.

Thanks

please have a look at the rescues, many of the staffs come with a full history and have been rehomed through no fault of their own, we have a rescue staff, we had her at 18mths, we had a full history with her and she is wonderful with our children, we have (although she has tested us at times ;-) never regretted it), also look at Northern staffordshire rescue, sometimes they have young staffs too

hth

There's loads in rescues.

Take a look at Zeena on Rain Rescue's website, she's a lovely little dog.

Just wanted to note - not just for you, but others who might see this - pure white in bull breeds is a genetic abnormality that is linked to deafness. Do be sure to find out if any white bully you're interested in has been tested.

To be honest, I would be a little wary of anyone selling pure white bully pups (especially at a premium, which I have seen), as it can be a sign of poor breeding practices. Reputable bully breeders quite often see all white as a "bad thing" and have the dogs altered so they're not passing the gene on.

it was ment to say pure red, reds are generally classed as irish staffs or pit bulls and ppl pay more 4 them thats y shes using mum and sone to make them look the right colour

Hmm that was the reason that I asked I wasn't sure if you meant red nose dogs, well if she is selling pit bull types she had better not think of selling them in this group as it is illegal! :mad:

thats the thing they are not pitt ther staffs she was tring to sell them as pitt for 450 when her pups are really wortless was just warning the op not to buy from her

www.dogpages.org.uk is full of staffies. There are a few staff pup's on there too.

I was not aware of this, thank you very much for informing me. I did see a white deaf staff on the RSPCA Website funnily enough, poor mite.

thanks Daisy :hihi:

Im slightly weary of a rescue dog, just because i have a child age 4. My other Staffy was lovely with my little one, but you never know.

Delinquent, don't be weary of a rescue, this is my rescue Staffy (http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g254/fox20thc/wendy004.jpg) and if you can handle the kisses, constant need to have cuddles plus the defending her from fearful traffic cones, cats and anything new in the house (she is such a coward) I recommend a staffy rescue.

When I was looking for a dog I wrote off rescue staffys due to the bad name they had but my girl is a big fat cowardly girly softy.

Go take a look before you decide its not for you.

dont be wary, like i say, i have mine with a full history from rescue, i have an 11 yr old, 6 year old and 2 year old, plus another on the way, at the end of the day, common sense must prevail, the dog must learn that you are all alpha, not him, and you dont leave the child alone with the dog, any dog can turn, for a multitude of reasons, not just the staffy. I would certainly consider it, ours is a star.

Oh it isn't because of the breed i am worried. I know that with the right upbringing of a staffy they are lovely dogs, mine was as soft as a brush, like a baby.But yes would never leave a child on its own with any dog. Im just worried why the dog was put in the kennels/rescue place in the first place. But i will consider it. Can anyone name any rescue places i can visit so i can meet the dog's rather than view pictures on the web?

Thanks for all your replies :)

I hate it when people think like this :( (this is not an attack at you, you just reminded me of the attitude a non dog lover took last week about Gadget when I said we were at least his 3rd family that I knew of)

Most dogs in rescue are there through no fault of their own. I am certain that the only 'crime' Gadget commited to end up in the pound one cold January was that he just wasn't a puppy anymore :(

And he is SO grateful to be with a loving family now. He is such an affectionate, cuddly happy dog. When he lets out a contented sigh all comfy and snuggled up to me on the sofa it breaks my heart to think of him all cold and alone in the pound or on the street.

Of the two dogs our family has rescued compared to the three we've bought (over many years) the two rescues are definitely 10x more grateful to be loved, and are also more obedient and better behaved! Like they don't take what they've NOW got for granted ;)

Gadget the first night we got him: http://s24.photobucket.com/albums/c12/KATIEB_23/?action=view&current=01a.jpg

Spring street kennels broke my heart when I went as there were so many there I swear if I ever win the lottery I'll buy a house with a huge garden and home as many as I can that will live together.

Staffys are my favourite breed my staffy cross is the softest daftest dog you could ever want to meet well that is unless your lurking arounf outside my house then she defends her turf and anyone one it.

Can agree 100% with this, we've not adopted a dog, but have fostered dogs from rescues and they've always been so grateful for giving them a home.

I can understand you been weary but my staffy is absolutley fantastic with everyone and everything. She's slightly nuts but arn't they all???? =)

She was from Fireside Bull breed Rescue.

Good luck

They really are. The look in their eyes when they realise that big crate with the snuggly duvet in it is for THEM! Or that you really do want to cuddle up on the sofa and stroke their ears...it would break anyone's heart. Currently got a foster lurcher sprawled on my lap (he's a big lad but thinks he's the size of a chihuahua :hihi: ) and although he's had a horrible life so far, and would be well within his rights to be wary of humans as a whole, he isn't. He's just so pathetically grateful. It's fantastic, but also heartbreaking! Please consider a rescue, I promsie you won't regret it :)
