Best advice mate....

Don't. simples

Just do a bit of googling about the crisis with staffies and how overrun rescue centres are with them and how many dogs AND pups of this breed get PTS every week and have a rethink.

Add to that the potential risk that your lovely bitch might die during childbirth in the hands of a novice and the potential for a £1000 vet bill for a C section if there are problems and it's not rocket science What you going to get £100 a pup if you are lucky, unlikely to even cover costs without a C Section if you get all the stuff you need

I mean this all with respect to you but seriously just don't

Thanks Snoringbear

If anyone else wants to add some "evidence" as to why this isn't a great move feel free

Or have a look at the leaflet here....

Staffordshire Bull Terrier Information - Home

Or log onto all the rescue forums and see the pounds posting pictures of staffies desperate for somewhere to go some of whom end up being PTS. My local pound has 70 kennels and last time I went 62 of the dogs were staffies or crosses....

I hope this isnt a wind up anyway. Too many poor staffies unwanted and been pts for eff all most of em.
