Hi there.
I am owned by 2 greyhounds and 2 lurchers and would love a staffy to join our family. He/she would have to be a rescue dog but am I living in cloud cuckoo land thinking a rescue staffy would cope with 4 large, quirky hounds?
Opinions/advice very welcome Smile

You could try to take your current dogs with you to meet the potential rescue to see how they get along. Rescue centers are also good at matching the right dog to the right person.

My experience of our 2 is that they much prefer the bigger dogs than the little ones anyway , they are much more fun and much more resilient to a bit of hard staffy play , but as said before take them to meet Big Grin

Contact a rescue centre and ask if you can take you dogs in to meet some potential friends for them. You'll probably find the rescue centre more than willing to let you do this.

Once found any friends will need to meet up firstly on neutral ground for a walk then be introduced to the dogs you already have in your home.

Good luck, hope it all goes well for you.
