Have a rescue American Staffy and she best princess ever!

I just adopted a “pit bull” from my local pound. She’s approximately 1 1/2 years old. I had never heard of the staffordshire. However the more I’m researching I believe I adopted a staffordshire. Can an expert tell from pictures? I’m wondering if I could send some pictures of her to someone they could tell??

Personally I believe I would prefer the reserved nature of the amstaff. Alsio from what I've researched Pitbulls over 40 pounds is abit rare. They do exist,but a real pit over 40 or 50 pounds is rare. Also if your pit still has those game dog instincts they can at times be problematic around other dogs. Now Pits can be good dogs. You just need to know what you have and how to handle it. Pits are used alot for hog catching nowadays. And also used in Bandog programs.So I hope BOTH breeds stay around for a very very long time.

This history you gave is false information. The American Staffordshire Terrier and the American Pitbull Terrier are 2 SEPERATE breeds. The pitbull derives from the Am Staff. But the Am Staff was NEVER called a pitbull or a Yankee terrier. They were called Pit Dogs, but NOT pitbulls. And it was the Pitbull breed that were called the Yankee Terriers, again NOT the Am Staff. The AKC did NOT change the name. They do not and will not accept the APBT on their registry because of it's history and original breeding purposes. The AKC, still specifically states, again, that these are and always have been 2 seperate breeds! American Pitbull Terriers have the Austrian and German Pincher Terrier genetics bred into them, Am Staffs do NOT. Even the picture you have as the thumbnail for this video, shows an APBT, that is NOT an Am Staff. Please reform this video with correct information.

so if i am at work about 9 hours totall 5 days a week as a normal working person which isnt on home office , i am not allowed to have staffy as a pet if i got it right

These "educational videos" on YT are the worst. American Staffordshire Terrier - is just a modern show variant of his working ancestor - the American Pit Bull Terrier. And for decades your pit bull might have been dual registered as both American Pit Bull Terrier and American Staffordshire Terrier.

I had a Staffordshire for 13 years when we went to the shelter he had only been there for one day he was the quietest and calm dog I instantly knew that he would be ours as he came up to the dor Sat down as I looked into his eyes and I said to my mum he was the one for us it was hard at first and he did snap at my mum one time at home but that's when the shelter told us about what his original owner did to him but only 2 weeks later he changed became the most joy full and loving dog ever would never pull on his lead and on his walk days would bring his lead to me or my mum would see mee onto my school bus and be there when I got off outside my house miss you bud ❤❤

We went to a dog shelter that let’s you walk dogs as volunteer work. They brought out a black staffy named Troy. Told me to be careful, and yet she was the goodest, sweetest girl i’ve met. Wanna go adopt her so bad

A staffy is not a pit bull.

Our two staffy pups are called tanjiro and nezuko.

The bulldog shown in this video is NOT a bulldog. In fact that so called English bulldog is nothing more than breeding gone wrong and they figured sell them anyway.

I think all dog, gun, and baby owners (yes, intentional ) and breeders should be required to have training. All dogs can be dangerous. That being said the laws need to have resources behind them so that breeders and bad actors can be checked. People abusing their dogs need to have consequences that are actually consequential. I have an amstaff who is amazing and wonderful, but the people who had him before abandoned so he was found in a busy city intersection. I was surprised to find I had to get over my own unconscious biases. I trust him completely, but also am aware of his limitations. He is not a dog park dog and needs skilled day care. We are crazy skilled handlers, and we still think people need training before owning dogs.

i have one and its like raising a brick but he is so CUTE

I swear my American Pitbull must have some staff in him because he acts just like the average staffy

I still can't tell the difference. There are pictures of each breed that could be my dog's twin. I think the only way to know for sure is if you have their records of ancestry/genealogy.

Nala is my staffy and she bites I ignore the pup as it says my partner how ever tells her off … I said the dog don’t understand the scolding … it’s ten weeks old haha, I’m becoming frustrated as she is hurting is with the biting and I can’t let her meet my family as they all have children and some are scared of dogs. I need help, is there a free app as I can’t find your app …

Oh, so many thoughts, but Staffys are absolutely the best, sweetest, most forgiving puppers on the planet.

I just got my first Staffordshire, I been a GSD guy most my life or a Rottie. I have a blue staffy name Azul aka Blue. He is 6 months and the light of my world. He also keeps his 90lbs shepski brother in fantastic mood since he is only 14 months. Two High active dogs, twice the excitement and responsibility tbh thx the creator we are not to far from the dog beach about 30 min walk.

99,99% of staffies will kiss you before you can ask the servants if you can pet it. 🥰

All dogs are house dogs

I WISHD ID HAD SOME DAY AMSTAFF

I don’t care Stephies are the best dogs on the planet. I love them.

Have an amazing English staffing Quiet small to look at going on 3 years We did the dance of getting to know each other Four falls and a broken toe. we became in sync. He dislocated my back and fixed my sciatica No need for surgery and years of healing The universe gives us what we need 😊🎉❤

My staffy jumps up everyone, and is a bit stubborn, other than that he's brilliant

An absolutely brilliant dog, and will make you laugh. And stick to you like glue.

My Siberian Husky would give a burglar a guided tour of my house, then happily go home with said burglar. A "home" for a Husky is a place to be escaped from. But I used to have a 100-lb Akita. I'd challenge any human on the planet to break into a house with a large, protective, un-neutered male Akita waiting inside.

Amen ❤... They Love People. 🐾🐾🐾

I Concur ❤

Are their licks relatively dry or really wet & sticky?

I tell them apart by two main physical differences. Amstaff have relatively longer and more straight legs albeit that their body is similarly stocky and hence stand taller than the Staffy. Amstaff also have longer muzzle which makes their head look more brick-like than the Staffy, which in comparison have a more round face. Other than these, most Amstaff have their ear cropped by their owners while the Staffy rarely get ear cropped.

Our staffy pup LOVES the long grass, he frolics through it and rolls around in it.

Thank Staffy Dog for this INTERESTING & PRACTICAL video.

Absolutely I love the American Staffordshire also.l

Funny on some other channels they say wash em once a week. But they also then go On to recommend or sell you shampoo

Sure not the best guard breed (had 2 corsos and a staffie) but both of them can feel if i am in trouble, and then welcome to hell they will guard you with their lives if they have to❤️❤️

Excellent video 👍🏼

Merica !

Like from the ASPCA becuase you’re a dip shit and left your dog alone. Ever ….

Happiest puppy 🐶

I love my staffy. I have had her going on for 6 yrs. She is the smartest dog that I've ever had. Before her were 4 other, different breeds. She sees a vetinarian regularly as scheduled. This may surprise others, she weigh, 99 lbs as of 3 months ago. Yes 99 lbs.

well...I have both...my amstaff female is so greatfull for everything, smart, sweet, obidient, a bit protective , but him ...the english staffy...Dear Lord...I feel like living with a french buldog in need of emotional support dog ....love them so much

I need puppies in my life😢

From dog breeders - boys are sweeter, girls are smarter.

Best dogs ever!

Such beautiful dogs with an undeserved bad reputation. The ones that should be banned are the owners who try to make them viscous

Im buying a puppy in a month ive been saving but i just cant seem to make my mind up but after seeing everyones lovery comments on these dogs i think i might have made my mind up

Staffies are an exceptional breed deserving of love and admiration. My journey with bully breeds started in my childhood, where I grew up with three bull terriers until I was seven. From age 11 to 24, my loyal companion was Buster, a Staffie-Mastiff mix. He was my steadfast friend, guiding me through the trials of adolescence and the tumultuous questioning of my identity and aspirations. Buster was by my side during high school, my first love, breakups, and the daunting early twenties, helping me discover who I truly wanted to be. After losing Buster, I took eight months to find my next cherished companion, an American Staffordshire Terrier-Ridgeback mix. Despite the grief, this decision opened my heart again, and he has taught me valuable lessons about loyalty and unconditional love. Each bully breed brings unique experiences that shape our lives for the better.

Video brainwashing to scare ppl. Staffies are EASY to train!

Staffies are incredible dogs. I’m laughing listening to this.👍🏻

Hi. Thinking of getting a staffy. Does staffies get along with other dogs?
