Hi Everyone

Just new to this site, I have 2 rescue Stafford, Izzy was 7 months old when I rescued her, she had mange and ticks and had been totally neglected. When searching for a mate for her at the RSPCA the dog we went to see was not a match but they had a puppy who's mum was in there. He was 2 days old when he went in and 7 weeks when he joined my family. So now my family consists of me, Izzy and puppy Patrick who is now nearly 9 months old. I will be honest and say he is a handful, they are both very different, izzy is timid but craves for attention but Patrick fears nothing. All the hard work is repaid by the love and loyalty and best company I have ever had. They have had there arguments and Patrick was nearly back at the RSPCA a few weeks ago as he does mark her but she had never marked him. That's a female for you. LOL. Thinking about going to training classes with them both but separately as that is what I have been advised.

Anyway I am going on a bit but just wanted to introduce us. Will post photos later.

Best Wishes
Julie, Izzy & Patrick

Hi & welcome to the forum.

A lot of the rough play is down to his age - at 9 months he's a bloody teenager! Knows everything, listens to nothing, nobidy understands him! Laughing

In another 6 months you'll wonder what all the fuss was about. But training classes (if you can find a decent one) are a good idea.

Hi &welcome to the forum from me and Gwen! Well done for deciding to rescue..so many poor dogs in shelters these days:( Patrick sounds like a typical boisterous staffy pup! They do play very rough but he will definitely start to learn how rough is too rough as he gets older! Would love to see some pics of them!! Smile
