New pics of Charlie

Hey guys.
Thought I'd put on some new pics of Charlie so you can see how much he's grown while we've been offline

He's huge!! And fabulous, I've missed him, he is one lucky boy

Oh what a handsome boy, he's gorgeous

Thanks Janey, I'll put some more on later. He's doing so well, and is loving our new back garden cos there's room for him to run and play or just bask on the grass in the sun. They have such a hard life!!

Thanks Lee. He's my little (Okay huge) miracle

OMG Shontelle how big is he, he is lush xx

What a stunner! He's a big boy, but looks really in proportion.

Your daughter's really pretty, too!

Aw thanks Caryll, she's absolutely stunning, so is my eldest daughter and my little one's twin brother, Thankfully my husband is good looking and passed on his genes

I'm glad you think Charlie's in proportion cos I've had a few people tell me he's fat (including my husband) which I don't think he is.

OH MY GOD CAN I HAVE HIM! Hes the spitting image of Romeo, just bigger! I swear all red staffys are extra wrinkly rofl. Hes even got the cheek wrinkles like Romeo haha! Can you tell i think hes gorgeous? How tall is he out of interest? He a big strapping lad.

I don't have a clue on the height, he's up to my knee almost and I'm 5 foot 2 if that helps?? I'll measure him tomorrow and let you know. I didn't actually think he's a red. If you look in the gallery at his puppy pics, you'll see he was a light fawn. But he is getting darker as he gets older, and his mum is a beautiful show winning red. I tell people he's a 'reddish-fawn', cos I'm never quite sure!

I've just had a look at the pics of Romeo and Charlie definitely looks like him. Romeo is absolutely stunning. We clearly have excellent taste in dogs

I guess i can't have him then.
So hes kc reg? What breeders is he from if you don't mind my asking. I want to get a red/fawn female as a companion for Romeo one day.Romeo was born a lot darker and had quite a lot of black grizzle but hes the opposite-hes got lighter. Hes got a strip of very dark red hair running down his back like a ridgeback rofl. Charlie looks about 16 inch to me but thats just a guesstimation.

his mum is a beautiful show winning red

I wonder if there related?

That really depends on how you like to see a dog! He's still very much a puppy, and I don't mind seeing a bit of covering on such a youngster!

I think he's a dark fawn smut! (No, I'm not being rude!)

He's not KC registered. His mum is, but I don't know alot about his dad, apart from the fact that he is a massive brindle staffy. The breeder is a personal friend of my dads and he got Charlie for me for christmas because I was looking for one and his friend had just had a litter. As far as I know, it was her first litter and her last because out of 7 pups, Charlie was the only survivor and they don't want to go though that all again

How odd haha they come from very similar backgrounds! Romeos mum was a very small red kc reg staffy, and his dad was a huge white and brindle pied, not kc reg. It was also her only litter, they kept half of all the pups

Hmm, very similar!! What part of the country did Romeo come from?

Awww, he's lovely

What part of the country did Romeo come from?

He came from North London, where I live. I wish i could remember the kennel name of his mum, it was quite a well known one. Rarely see red staffies round here. In actual fact i rarely see any staffies at all!

Charlie's mum lives in Bournemouth. She went a bit scatty after losing the pups, I really felt sorry for her

Nice he is awsome.
