Amazing dogs

Hey so this is my first post on here and I just want to express how much of a perfect dog my lovely 11 month old Stafford named Pixie is.
She is a lovely ginger brindle with white patches, I would have never thought about getting a staffie, but my boyfriends cousin couldn't look after her so I decided hey why not!

To be honest I dont see why people are scared of these dogs, the amount of times I've taken her on a walk and people have given me and Pix the most horrible look ever it disgusts me! (don't judge a book by its cover comes to mind!!)

She has the best temperament I could have asked for, I have to agree Staffie cuddles are the best!

Pixie is my first dog I've had without having a parent to help, I'm 19 and have my own home with my boyfriend and for a first dog she's perfect! With a good upbringing, love, the right amount of discipline and I would totally recommend staffies to everyone looking for a first dog!

If you've taken the time to read this thankyou and I would love to hear some feedback!

great first post

Thankyou !

Welcome to the forum. and just ignore those people that give you the stare. you just have to remember that they are basically ignorant and have no idea about dogs and at the end of the day its their loss.

all we need know is a few pics of pixie

Oh wow, what a lovely little story! Welcome to the forum from Meg and me, you'll never regret taking her in (just for the Staffy snogs alone!). Really hope you stick around, and yes, get some pics up as soon as you can!

Lovely first post Glad you've got the chance to experience some Staffy love!

Thankyou guys so much I just feel from all the negative stories about them it's time to share some good stories with people! Yes the staffie snogs are the beat greeting ever aswell as the cuddles haha! I've put a picture of her as my profile picture

She's lovely

Hi and welcome from us and Suki. Glad things are going so well for you   

Thankyou! She's as soft as anything! Things are going amazing she's so cheeky haha wouldn't trade her for anything else

Congratiolations You got the best first dog possible! she looks adorable in your avatar (more pics please) .you will have to learn to ignore the ignorant idiots that if they were loved and cuddled by a staffy they wouldn't be so bitter... anyway Welcome from peppa and me

Hello and a warm welcome from me and Stella   Pixie looks adorable. You will have many happy years with the most loyal, loving and crazy dogs on this planet  

welcome to the forum and what a nice first post

Welcome from the kids and I. Stunning first post and so glad you get to experience the amazing staffy love. As said above, ignore the ignorance and make it a point to educate those who will listen

Thankyou all so much! I am slowly getting used to the ignorance it's just awful the way they are she just gets so excited wanting to go say hello to everything!
There Is only 1 or 2 other dog owners who give her a chance, one owns a greyhound and it's so funny watching her trying to catch up haha! I will be putting more pictures on once I make a account on PB as I use my phone for internet

Oh wow ash she's a lil beauty!! And yes thick skin springs to mind, you post was spot on and yes the snuggles and kisses are the best!! Educate who you can and disregard who you can't xx

Fab first post and Welcome from me and my cuddly munchkin Pixie is gorgeous! Like the others have said educate the ones that give you a chance and ignore the rest. I've had people pick up their kids when I've been walking towards them with Axl who at the time was beside himself with excitement from seeing little people! He was literally wacking his nose with his tail it was wagging so much lol... they are the best dogs and people who don't give them the chance they deserve are really missing out

Thankyou they are lovely dogs they need some credit after all the bad press, people need to realise not all staffies have been brought up badly, and I would love to give anyone with the intention of bringing them up badly a piece of my mind haha.

I agree people are definitely missing out on these lovely dogs everyone's picture of there dogs ive seen on here have the wonderful staffie smile! It's absolutely lovely to see so many people with the same love for this breed as I do

Hi and welcome to the forum from me and the zoo xx

Hi and welcome from me and Daisy, Staffies are the best   

Well done for rescuing her from someone who didn't want her.
I think opinions on Staffies are changing for the better - partly because of people like you who are taking them into homes where they are wanted, trained properly and absolutely loved to bits.
