The athletic origins of the Staffy influence the breed today. They are strong and muscular, with high energy levels. This translates to a companion who is playful, agile and has a lot of stamina. Staffys thrive in households that have an active family that are experienced with dogs. Channelling the Staffy’s abundant energy is important. Daily walks, runs and lots of playing will help keep your Staffy’s body and mind healthy.
As with all dogs, socialisation with other dogs and animals from a young age is vital. A dog who isn’t socialised is often fearful and may be aggressive towards other dogs and animals. Staffys adore people and are happiest when spending time with the family and children. Leaving your Staffy alone in the backyard all day is likely to result in a bored, lonely and agitated dog. Plenty of exercise and company helps to prevent destructive behaviour like digging, chewing and barking.
Staffordshire Bull Terriers are a medium sized Terrier. Their height can range from 36-41 cm to the shoulder. Their muscular build means they are quite heavy for their size and may weigh from 11-17 kgs. Females tend to be smaller than males. Colours include red, fawn, black, white, blue, brindle and any of these colours with white. The coat is short and smooth, requiring a small amount of grooming but it does shed. Their life expectancy is around 11- 14 years.
Fun fact
The late Steve Irwin described his brindle Staffordshire Bull Terrier, Sui, as a “loyal friend, protector” and the love of his life. Sui was The Crocodile Hunter’s faithful sidekick from 1988 to 2004
