About Staffies

Staffordshire bull terriers have suffered a great deal from overbreeding and bad press in recent years. Sadly, many have ended up in our care through irresponsible ownership.

However, with the right training Staffies can make wonderful pets, and many of the Staffies in our care are well behaved, affectionate and playful.

If you're sure that a Staffy is the right breed for you and you can provide a 'forever' home for one, make sure you're buying from a reputable breeder.
