BREEDING ADVICE

Thinking of Breeding from your Stafford?
Think very carefully before breeding from your Stafford, the breed is getting ever more popular every year, which incurs problems such as dogs needing to be re-homed, there simply aren't enough of the right kind of 'Good' homes to go round. 

Thinking about using your dog at Stud?
Additionally Stud dog owners should satisfy themselves that a bitch is fit to be bred from, registered at the Kennel Club, clear of PHPV/HC under a Kennel Club approved eye testing scheme, before allowing their dog to be used at stud.

COLOURS :  The Stafford coat colour under it's breed standard can be Black, Brindle, White, Red, Blue, Fawn or any of these colours with   White.  None of these colours are rare!  Do not pay any more money for so called 'rare' colours. (Staffords are sometimes seen with Black/Tan or Liver coats - these colours are undesirable should you wish to 'show' your Stafford but will not make any difference to a Stafford wanted as a family pet).
