"A BOOK OF THE BREED, covering the history of the Staffordshire bull terrier, together with information on breeding, rearing and general welfare."
"The Staffordshire Bull Terrier is one of the most popular of all the terrier breeds, with its courageous character and rugged good looks finding favour among a wide range of enthusiasts. The Stafford is descended from a cross between the Bulldog and a native English terrier, with the aim of producing a smaller, faster animal for the sport of dog-fighting, which reached new heights of popularity in the early 19th century. Despite this historical connection with fighting, the Stafford is a devoted companion dog, and the breed’s kindness and gentleness with children is well known. In this highly comprehensive Book of the Breed, the author traces the history of the prized show dog and companion dog, with a worldwide following. Advice is given on choosing a puppy, training, adult management, and handling in the show ring. The Breed Standard is analysed in detail, illustrated with top-quality line drawings, and there is excellent material on breeding Staffordshire Bull Terriers and starting a breeding programme. Lavishly illustrated throughout, this high-quality book gives the Stafford the recognition it so richly deserves."
