Hi new here.

Hi i'm new to the forum but seen the facebook group thought i would come in here as well and say g'day. I have a 3 year old American Staffy Bull terrier. He gets a lot of attention on walks some bad and some good as some people are intimidated by him i don't know why as he is never aggressive towards people, other dogs on the other hand i can't be to certain about as he is a rescue and i haven't got anyone to test him around.

Hi & welcome! Glad you could join us.

Do you mean he's an American Staffordshire Terrier, or a Staffordshire Bull Terrier from America?

He looks like the first - either way, he is gorgeous!

Hi and welcome from me and mine

Do tell us more about your lad, his name, how long you've had him, etc. He's gorgeous!!!

Welcome from Misty and I. Your boy is very handsome! Can't wait to hear more about him.

Hello and welcome from, Hank and I

Well done on your rescue! can't wait to hear more about your handsome boy.

Thanks for the kind welcome, his name is Sabbath and i have had him since 14th of may 2017 he was a handful when i got him but i wasn't going to give up on him. I was told he was taken twice and brought back for some reasons i cant understand. With alot of positive reinforcemenr training he is going really well and is a very smart dog and his obedience has improved heaps.

His breed says on his papers American Staffordshire Bull Terrier.

Positive reinforcement training.I love hearing those words! So glad he found you!!

Glad i did he is such a loving boy. Alot of bad habits when i first got him, he had no manners so he never really had any obedience training but now i have little effort when taking him for a walk no pulling on his lead with me still has his little sook when walking past other dogs as he doesn't bark at them just wants to look at them.
