Hi I'm new here. Hoping to learn more about Staffies. I have a family with a 5 and 8 year old and we are considering bringing a Staffie into our family. We lost our beloved Chesapeake Bay Retriever about 18 months ago and it's time for a new canine family member. Ive admired Staffies for years and think they're amazing family dogs. I'm here to learn more about the breed and if it continues to appear to be a great fit, hope to find some advice on finding an ethical breeder to work with.

hello & a warm welcome to the forum.

so sorry to hear about the loss of your Chesapeake Bay, they leave such a gap in our lives, don't they? RIP.

you don't say where you live, but if you're in the UK you can contact the Kennel Club for a list of breeders near you, or you can look at the Champdogs site which advertises litters. do make sure that youn do your homework regarding health tests - here's a link for you to be aware of - click on 'breed info' and then 'SBT Health'...

Hi from me and mine

I'm sorry to hear about your loss. I can't imagine life without a dog in it, the last 18 months must have been hard.

Good luck on your hunt for a breeder, I hope we hear about your pup soon!

The health link is still relevant, but maybe contact the AKC?
