i would think it is impossible to discuss the history of the sbt without including any dog fighting reference.
the pit is an integral part of the staffies history.

i agree the whole reason the staffordshire bull terrier came about was for dog fighting way way back but they dogs of the past were not bred for looks they were not the same dogs we have today obviosly some charictaricstics would be the same just to say dogfighting makes me sick to my stomach

also the staffie i have been told got the nickname the nanny dog because when one of the dogs was injured in a dog fight it was not unknown for the injured dog to be put in the pram with the young child to be transported home

i cant belive this barbaric stuff still goes on in this day in age but every staffordshire bull terrier on this earth today all over the world comes from these very early figthing dogs
