YAY!!! It's about bloody time!

Nice to see a positive story - about time!

What a refreshing change to read a good story. About time.

Makes a change

MP and sense in the same sentence!!!! WOW! Thats a first!

I was sooooo happy about the first paragraph:

"The dogs, affectionately known as “Staffies”, are not on the government’s banned list and most of the breed posed no threat to humans..."

I couldn't read the rest of it lol. I love my Staff and I am more than confident she will not be a danger to anyone but her own tail because recently she has been running round in circles trying to catch it lol.

I hope this kind of positive talk gets around and noticed more because our little babies need to be loved and respected by society again, they deserve it. They have had this terrible stigma for too long and have for too long proved that they are amazing dogs.

Shocking isn't it It doesn't roll of the tongue very easily but i could get used to it.

Blimey!! What a refreshing change!! It's just so nice to hear something positive. My Coco absolutely adores my son Ethan who has severe special needs. He came home today from respite and she promptly sat on his knee and licked the living daylights out of him!!
Staffies are amazing and it's about time they got a good press for a change! Well done to him!

wooooohooooo nice one
