The Rock..

That is Flo. She can be a stubborn little madam and really dig her heals in when she doesn't want to walk.

In fact when she refuses to go with my youngest child she will stop dead, sit down & if you still insist, she will lay down !

I can assure you that she has given the neighbours endless hours of hilarity.

Is every Staffy as stubborn ?   

Yep!   

I have to confess that I have actually picked her up and carried her to the end of our road as she looks at the car and then you as if to say "if not in the car then no way am I going"  

We had a few problems with Lula at first i thought it was too cold and she did not like wet paws. Only she loves running in the garden and the wet grass does not bother her.
I decided to bribe her with treats to get her to walk and it did work to a point   she took the treats then would sit back down till she got another treat   We give a little pull on the lead and she will now start walking. I am wondering what we will be able to do once she bigger

 Yup we thought Flo was being all dainty at first not wanting to get her paws wet.. If you had seen her last weekend in the mud then no way is she dainty.

Treats don't work Simi, they cotton pretty quickly   

The car thing is all about going to her favourite park, we're smarter than her   Though I did fox her one evening last year and turned right at the end of the road instead of left and then into the pub !

Guess which way she wants to go now  

Oh most definitely stubbornness=staffyness

 

i find that slipping my hand underneath the 'rock's ribs
and giving a little tickle induces said 'rock' to move .. a few inches

Oh yes they are very stubborn, and crafty!!   

Suzy is namely on 2 occasions that is if its raining and she refuses to go out for a walk,and if shes on a walk and she sees another dog she wants to say hello to she will literally lie on the floor and refuses to move

Ha ha.. Glad it's not just my girly  

Ledger digs his heels in quite regularly usually when it's raining or he is tired and just wants to go back home

Dear god yes! Luckily I'm just at stubborn though teehee!!

Looks like you're not alone here Ian   

Mu hubby says I'm stubborn too   

Is this a classic sign of the owner becoming like the Staff or the other way around Kathy  

Chloe will NOT even stick her (very big, but very pretty!) head out of the door if it's pouring down - caused us a few 'problems'
