Have you always owned staffies or have you had other breeds in the past? Will you always own staffies or will you have another breed in the future?

We've only ever had Staffords and whist they remain our all time favourite breed, Ian would like a Bulldog if we ever got a third dog (I'd prefer a French Bulldog) but I can't see us having more than our two, seems kind of perfect with the pair of them

Ian would also like a bulldog but they are definately not for me at all. Thankfully they are very expensive and I know he would not pay that amount of money for a dog

I have toyed with the idea of an EBT in the past but I think they may be a bit too powerful for me. We looked at one before we got Reuben and he was extremely strong and very strong willed and although I am sure we could have made him a great dog I was worried about Chloe as she is so petite

It will always be staffies or staffie cross for me in the future

Whilst I love my staffies due to my illness and mobility problems I think I would look at other breeds in the future. I know I would only have one dog in the future and whilst I get mine out as much as I can I don't feel that I am mobile enough any more to take on another staffie in the future, unfortunately. Mind, I hope I don't have to even think about this for many years to come and mine are happy enough with what they get. I would probably go back to a cross or a lab or something like that.

I never ever wanted a Staffy before I got Ollie from the RSPCA, with all the publicity around at the time and my daughter only being 10 months old I certainly did'nt want a Staff however that changed within days of bringing Ollie home from the RSPCA, my ex husband chose Ollie, Ollie is Staff x Lab, Ollie was thought to be about a year old when we got him, he was immediately so so loving and I knew at that point I wanted a pure Staff, ironically we did return to the RSPCA and try to adopt a pure Staff, they had a black Staff that I was interested in adopting but it was refused has we had "no previous experience of Staffies" even though Ollie was part Staff - broke my heart when they refused the adoption of the Staff - often wonder whatever come of her, that was when we began our search for a private breeder x

I'd definitely like to have Staffies in the future but I would also be open to other breeds, I'd prefer to rehome an abandoned / rescue dog again x

I adore staffies im very passionate about them.

I would like another dog but I think two staffys might be too much for me on my own so maybe a little dog. If I wasn't single I would think about it but with Enzo not always getting on with other dogs it probably isn't an option anyway, although he has improved alot.
