Re: Staffy's in rescue

Thats the main reason we didn't sell jojos pups, we found good homes for them instead, people thought we were mad because they were pedigree pups, & we could have made some money.

But I was more interested in finding them good homes, as I know how many staffies end up in rescue centres, all of the new owners keep in touch & all her pups are doing well.

I looked at it as we rehomed the mum we didn't know she was pregnant it was one hell of a shock but we got through it with 8 healthy lively pups who are all happy & well cared for in their new homes.

We made no money on them as we chose to find the homes, in fact we were out of pocket cos boy could they eat! but the outcome was good in the end

Mums just been spayed this week so there wont be anymore pups!

Re: Staffy's in rescue

I was thinking this the other day, there seems to be more staffie's than any other breed.

We're getting a staffie x, I can't wait.

I love my staffy crosses, they are both very different (one is beagle x staffy and the other JRT x Staffy) but the one thing they have in common is their love of cuddles!! They are the sweetest dogs and just want to be loved. I'm so excited that you picked a staffy cross as your new dog.

Re: Staffy's in rescue

I have to admit I have always been a bit wary of them as they seem to have an undeserved reputation. But then I met 2 and they are the sweetest things I have ever known. I suppose any breed of dog could be a vicious dog if that is what the owners want it to be.

Re: Staffy's in rescue

My lot are staffy x.. but if it had been done my way Deimi would have got the mismate jag in the 1st place.
Don't get me wrong, I love all 9 of her babies to bits, but the amound of stress, worry and money I don't have it has cost could all have been avoided.

Puppies are so much better off being left to the good breeders.. the ones who do health checks, and have waiting lists for puppies.

I would love to get a staffy x from a rescue.. but my circumstances do not allow- no rescue near me rehomes staff x's with small children.

It is a shame the wrong element got their hands on this fab breed. I was walking the rabble the other night and met a lady with 2 dali's. I shouted over that mine were friendly cos her's were off lead too and she looked a bit panicked (most people panic seeing my pack running riot tbh!!).Anyway they all had a play and a woof and the woman got mugged by Cooper (staffy x jrt) who did his usual grinning and wobbling and told her how much he loved a cuddle!! She was on the ground with him giving him kisses and cuddles and asked me what breed he was. I said he's a staffy x jrt...she jumped up and said 'omg those are the devil dogs aren't they' I laughed and said does he look evil to you? She was so pleased to have met Cooper because she'd believed what she'd read and only ever seen them on lead in our nearest town with the certain types that like their dogs to look 'hard' My little wonky staffy cross managed to change her mind completely and she went away thinking positively about them.

Re: Staffy's in rescue

I love staffies theyr lovely and not yet have i come across an aggressive one! Its the yobs that stand on the streets with the rediculously large chains tryna make the dogs look aggressive that give them such a bad rep and its such a shame! its so sad that there are so many in the rehoming centres i personally couldnt walk round and look coz id end up taking um all home if theyd let me haha hate seing any animal in kennels all should be nice and snug in homes!- if only, i know the bolton rspca branch were paying for everyone who owned staffies in bolton to have them neutered just so they wouldnt breed them and the poor sods end up with no homes coz they were so overrun with them, just wish people knew the responsibilties of breeding not just look at the money their little dog can makeBut staffies I LOVE EM I LOVE EM I LOVE EM hehe
