thug or animal abuser!! we dont think like that here my friend, your dog looks lovely.

Hi & welcome.

Why on earth would we think you're a thug or an animal abuser? As Janey said, the pic says it all!

Hi and welcome from me, Millie and Bella

sorry guys just dont like being stereotyped as im from essex and own a staff my own fault for being presumptious he is a lovely boy who was being beaten up by a JRT and as hes soo soft he wouldnt retaliate i have plenty of pics to upload :p

You won't be judged here

Hi and welcome from Kia and me, look forward to seeing lots more picks of Dexter he is a good looking lad

welcome

Hello and welcome from me and the kids

hi & welcome to the forum

hia from me and sasha
Dexter looks a gorgeous boy

thank you all for the huge welcome! im now looking for some advice.. we have woken this morning to find dexter's right eye has gone puffy/swollen we have taken him to local vets who said it sounds and looks like an allergy? just wondering if any other staffy owners have encountered this before ?

dunno if you can see from the pic but he has several lumps on top of his head and his mouth and eye have swelled up? any advice would be much appreciated

I haven't myself but you could try a piriton and see if that helps Xx

thanks for the reply janey the vets advised us to book him another appointment for the morning if its still the same hopefully they will give me something for him he looks so uncomfortable bless him hate seeing any dog suffer i put a cold flanel on his head this seemed to help but you can tell its irratating him as hes scratching his head alot

ye he having an alergic reaction try a antihystimin(of any brand lol)as we dont endorse any brands lol
try this first before going back to the vets unless you really think you need to as they will charge you a small fourtune to give same advice

ps welcome to the forum great pics thanks for sharing them and most on here will have come across stereotypical views from people at some point but you wont get that here

hi and welcome
hope he's feeling better

Welcome!

Hi and welcome from Greg, Trish and Kyda.

hi guys sorry not said much recently but school holidays has kept me very busy as im sure you can all understand.. im back again with another pic and looking for some more advice...



so as you can see from the picture i have brought dexter a nice new collar harness and lead set (only wearing harness do we have issues) but basically the colouring from the harness is coming off on Dexter hes coming back from his walks looking like a smurf bless him! any ideas how i can stop this other than not using the harness?

many thanks TeeJ & Dexter
