Hi just a little info plz

Hi my blue staffi Marley he is 15 months and is the most lovingly dog I have ever known . but he seems to have stopped growing but when I look on what other staff owners questions and answers he is a good weight as from today 18.6kg but the his head is a bit on the small side and he has recently starting to get around his eyes pink rings like he is losing his fur I have took him to my local vets who give me some medication shampoo and some cream and said this should work has any one who has had a similar problem could help me with just a bit of info would be great thanks jez n Marley

Hi ya Jez, welcome to the forum from Flo and me

In relation to your first query, Staffies come in all shapes n sizes especially if they aren't pure bred. My Flo is also about 18 kg and I think she has a small head too, especially compared to other Staffies.

As for losing hair around the eyes, I can't really offer any advice as its not something I've come across sorry, but I would be inclined to trust the vets opinion.

Hi Flo and me

... You'll fit in well around here

Thanks I hope so

Honest, it's not normally just me here

Hiya   bella has just turned 2  and 17.5kg and tall-ish  where as my brothers staffy is short and weight 16kg  like Ian said staffie come in all shapes and sizes  I  go by eye and feel as long as I can feel her ribs but can't see  them then she is OK

Hi thank you
I can't see his ribs I think it might be me worrying to much we have been used to him growing over the last year but the last 3-4 mouth he seems to not got any bigger and only put a few kg since I last weighed him but he doesn't look as if there is anything wrong he looks fit and healthy and the vet said last week he was so its probably first time staff fatherhood LOL

hiya welcome again mia has quite a small head for a staffy but shes quite heavy and short legs

The opposite here - Chaos has a huge head, but he's not a full staff.

I don't know about the skin thing. I'd go with what the vet says and see how Marley responds.

Thanks I will give it a month or so see how he goes but I was looking on some of the other notice boards and some posts talked about hay fever but didn't think that would apply through the winter

i think they all differ so much,i'm sure he'll have another growth spurt,he's gorgeous by the way
