Growing
Is a stafford nearly full grown at 8 months or does he still have a lot of growing left to do?

Got a bit to go yet! Generally it's upwards for the first year to 18 months & then outwards for the next 18 months.

Tilly is just 2 years and 2 months and seems to be pretty much developed now the only growing she is doing is up and down in relation to how many pies she eats

Re: Growing
Once the growth plates that are visible on a pups front legs have smoothed out which normally happens roughly at the 10 mth mark then adult height has been reached.
They then fill out and have a lot of fine tuning till about 3 yrs old.
Different breeds have different growth rates, so if a staffords a cross breed the above may vary
