Re: staffy's
I have a pure bred staffy (8 Years old) and a staffy cross (1 yr old). They are both stubborn and strong willed, but not impossible to train. You need alot of patience and a strong will yourself. The best bit of advice we got when we got our first staff was not to be afraid of being really firm with him, and establish who is boss! I have to say puppy training classed were a nightmare as neither of them at a young age were food motivated - they just wanted to get to the trainer... so we gave those up and I concentrated on doing 15 minutes twice a day with treats in the garden. They have both learnt pretty quickly. Although I will say that I think rather than stupid actually they are a bit too clever... both of them seem to 'consider' my order before actually complying (which can be very funny) although they generally decide that its in their best interest to do as they are told.
Good luck !

Re: staffy's
hmmmmmmmmm considering before complying now that sounds familiar lol
 He is ceratinly strong willed. The trainer at puppy classes was using him to demonstrate how to stop a dog from jumping up!!! BIG mistake he stopped jumping up but he barked at him as if to tell him he was not happy about it, the joys of dogs  Quote:

Re: staffy's
My Staffy cross Collie was the most loyal well behaved gentleman i have ever had. I have had and bred terriers all my adult life and he was by far the cleverest and easiest to train, Crate training is the best way to avoid destruction and anxiety and eases the toilet raining proccess.
Good luck on your new arrival and i am sure you will enjoy your new companion ..
