Hi and welcome from Ty and me. I think Staff puppies are perhaps the giddiest of all and teaching the basics from the begining, being patient and consistent is the key to survival.

Hello & welcome!

I'm afraid staffs can be rather giddy a pups. Be firm but fair with your training and he'll come good. If there is anything specific you want to ask, just start up a thread of your own & we'll try to help!

They are a very energetic breed but if exercised and trained properly with consistancy they are a fantastic breed.
