my staffy is having pups....

[LullabyLizard]

youve got to be kidding me...

great looking litter noah, some real stunners in that lot.

Why would I be kidding? I'm perfectly serious.

I'm glad pits are outlawed, atleast then it makes it harder for jerks who fight them to get their hands on the breed.

No. It makes it harder for want to be gangster thugs to get their hands on a backyard bred mutt being called a "pitbull". Real dogmen with true American Pitbull Terriers realistically face very little threat from BSL. Most people couldn't pick a true APBT from an "American Bully" type dog which is considered a pitbull nowdays. They aren't stocky short dogs with massive heads, deep chests and a deep bark. They are athletic, agile dogs that have been bred for temprament. A true APBT should never show any aggression to a human. You think 3 grown men would climb in to a pit while encouraging their dogs to fight and to judge while a few of there mates watch on the other side of a 4ft barrier, if the dog was human aggressive? It'd be like keeping a tiger in an exhibit with a pool fence as a barrier and going in there to clean it daily.

I think you may have misinterpreted the caption you quoted.

Congrats on the litter.

My partner has a Pure English Staffy, and when her staffy had pups she sold them at 6 weeks without any problems at all. She also recieved a pup that was only 3 weeks old (too many for the mother to feed) and she was fine.

But like you said not a thread for this argument, hope everything goes well for you and your babies.

Fact is the kind of people who buy rottweilers, dobes i.e fierce looking breeds are usually the wrong kind of people, the dogs don't get properly trained or they get taught to be aggressive and if such a breed tears into somebody.. you'll hear about it. 80% of the aggressive dogs that i groom are small crossbreds but because their bite doesn't inflict serious damage it's not as concerning.

I'm glad pits are outlawed, atleast then it makes it harder for jerks who fight them to get their hands on the breed.

Amstaffs were recently registered as a breed for show along with the tibetan mastiffs and the tenterfield terrier, they really need to change the name though.. American English bull terrier hardly makes any sense.

As far as my opinion goes amstaffs and pits are both mixed breeds, too much variation in the 'breeds' to be pure, not like the english staffordshires where they can pump the same result out time after time.

Personally I think Pitbulls are very pretty dogs and don't have an issue with keeping them. I have a rotty/mastiff x who is the most gentle wuss you could imagine. I also have 2 jack russell x who are my house protectors. The rotty x would help anyone who robbed my house and probably make them a coffee too. The little guys would be trying to eat them. Having said that, my grandkids come around and they are all the same loving and gentle guys who just adore the kids.
Any dog will attack given the wrong circumstances and training, they will also be the best family pet given the right owner and a loving environment. I do however believe there are some breeds that no matter what environment they are in will be untrustworthy and not allowed to be left unattended with children or those they don't know well.

BTW the puppies are gorgeous

my mate has a red healer and a amercian staffy the staffy is the greatest dog i have ever seen and the healer is the just a little s##t its rly aggresvie and rips in2 the staff i bet most the ppl here sayin there bad dogs have ownd 1 themselfs........6 weeks is fine for a dog aswell i got my kelpi at 5 1/2 weeks and its fine


congrats on the litter

 

[AM Pythons]

'amstaffs' are what some ppl are now calling 'pitbulls' to get around the no breeding rule.. i had a apbt, papers going 6 generations back to america, his dad was australian wieght pulling champion 3 years running, the breeder payed a massive stud fee for use of 'tyson'.. great dog untill someones mutt had a go at him,he was never the same again, attacked a female cop.. he got put down as a dangerous dog... it sucked... that happened 10 years ago.. i wont own dogs now.. i get to attatched to them...

 

[hypochondroac]

I agree Cosmic wolf, accorording to some statistics labs are responsible for the highest number of bites to children obviously because they are so common and because they are trusted with children.

Womapythons - heelers, kelpies and working dogs in general are renowned for mouthing/nipping as it is practised in their training.

Sorry for taking over the thread, but it's an interesting topic.

 

[noah07]

thankyou all for the positive comments for a change these pups will be well looked after by the mother and i and will be treated as if all r my children both my dogs i trust 100% with my children (son 2 1/2 daughter 17 months) they climb all over them and they r also treated like my children this breed is the probably one of the best dogs breeds around for loyalty and affection towards human as alot of u have said its the smaller cross breeds responisble for most attacks and alot of the time its the owners responible. willpost more pics as they grow will definately be some stunning pups and will only go to caring, loving new homes.!

 

[ntvnm]

could you show us some pics of the parents please....love all the bully breeds, english staffy for me.

Cheers.

 

[noah07]

[noah07]

[Wally]

Pups are beautiful. The father is a dead ringer for my boy, tan with white chest and four white socks.

 

[noah07]

yeah he is an awesome looking dog now still only a pup just turned one he is a big boy but an even bigger softy....he is yet to fully fill out but he is still only young but the best nature!!

 

[Wally]

View attachment 147423 Not the best pic but you get the idea. 30kgs of pampered dog.

 

[bluereptile]

TheTyeGuy, just ignore her -.- People that comment who have no idea will eventually learn to not comment.


OP, according to the law, they are the same breed. Under the BSL, pit bulls and amstaffs are "dangerous breeds". Do your research.

why dont you just back off and give the guy a brake, btw awesome pups noah

 

[miss2]

6 weeks is perfectly fine! I got my pup at 6 weeks. Their dogs. It doesn't matter. My dog is well socialised, she's well trained and she's just in general a great dog From 6 weeks to 8 weeks, they grow so much! They only stay puppies for about a month, get them while you can

i could say so many things on this thread due to all the cans of worms it has opened but i wont apart from this -
lullaby, im sorry, but that is one of the dumbest things i have ever heard..." their dogs, it doesnt matter" what is that sposed to mean? "they only stay puppies for about a month so get them while u can" that sounds so bad and i really hope u have a think about what u r saying.
no 1 - no dog is only a pup for about a month, i understand what u mean by means of playing and that puppy stage but im fairly sure a pup is still going to act like one at 4 months..
and no 2 - get them while u can...? what the heck? seriously... think b4 u type.
i do not agree with unregistered breeding... at all.
in saying all this, Noah, congrats they look beautiful and i hope they grow up to lead happy lives

Like others have said, 6 weeks is too early. They learn vital socializing skills from their mother & litter mates, 8 weeks minimum. Any dog can be dangerous, obviously it comes back to the owners keeping it under control at all times.
