how tall is your staffy?

how tall is your staffy?

katies bang on 16 inches, and thats about the size of it she wont grow any taller, just fill out more from now on.

Just tried to measure Blue but he has a fear of my tape measure. I can understand where he is coming from don't like the thing myself as it normaly involves me doing some work
But at a quick glance looked like he was 17"

the kennel club standard for staffys is 14 to 16 inches for both male and female

the height for both dogs and bitches is 14 to 16inches, this height and the dogs weight being in relation to each other, failure to conform to these size designations is a fault within the kennel club standards.

Holly is 15 inches and duke 15and half bang on

well their are within the height and conform to the kennel club standard

measure the height from the ground to the middle of his back, you can also measure from the shoulders to the back of the hocks

you can measure them from the ground to the top of their shoulder

I measured from the floor to the top of the shoulders. The middle of his back is allot lower but I think thats from where his saddle goes..........I don't make him wear it all the time..........just on walks for when my legs get tired

The official height is always from the floor to the withers (top of the shoulders, just behind the base of the neck).

read again the one below it

you have selective sight caryll

Taz is just over 20inchs
Cassie is 18inch give or take.

Toro is 44 cm so I think it´s like ~17 in inches I think most of todays staffys are too big when we compere to standards? Am I right or what?
Other option is that in Britain u have standard staffys and we have big ones over here

Yea your right staffys are bred big these days which is sad! Everyone thinks my Ty is small "for a staff" but actually he's on the large side at 17" people think staffs should be these huge muscely dogs.....

Well Taz is the most gorgeous mutt i have ever known so i know he is a misfit when it comes to size lol

http://www.petplanet.co.uk/petplanet/breeds/Staffordshire_Bull_Terrier.htm I found this it gives the height and weight

there's not too many staffys these days, that fit the height and weight criteria of the kennel club, they are a dying breed
