Hi all. New member from Mexico

Hi all, I'm newbie in the Staffordshire Bull Terrier breed but have plenty experience with other difficult breeds as Dogo Argentino and Fila Brasileiro. I just reserved my first puppy, a blackbrindle and white male puppy from a good breeder. Waiting for a good quality staffie and planning have the female on December or some time next year.

Expectative, have a new pet with which we can play and have him inside the house.

Saludos,

Hello and welcome.
How exciting to have reserved your boy, when does he come home ?
I’d love to hear a little more about staffies in Mexico. Are they popular over there ? Do they have a good or a bad reputation ?

Hi Nifty staffy,

How exciting to have reserved your boy, when does he come home ? Well, even though is not my first dog, it is my first Staffy, being a "dog men" is always very exciting the search, the selection and then the waiting of the new puppy! My kids are also very excited, when I showed the picture of the puppy to my little daughter she cried! (I first got scared), when I asked why she was crying, she said that she liked the puppy. So we are very happy.

I’d love to hear a little more about staffies in Mexico. Are they popular over there ? Not the most popular but from my research and discussion with people that have some years working with the staffies, they all said that the popularity in this breed is raising year over year, there is a "new" Mexican Club of Staffordshire Bull Terrier, which have organized to now three SBT specialties so it's getting more popular. In the place I live there aren't much cynophile culture so it is very difficult to attend dog shows which are more common in other places far from my city.

Do they have a good or a bad reputation ? Well, it depends. I have owned Dogo Argentino and Fila Brasileño, both are two of the breeds considered potential dangerous dogs, but they are not very familiar to most people so any dog they don't know they think are "pitbulls" and treat them with scare. I'm creating a web page in Spanish to spread knowledge of the breed and dogs in general, hopefully this will help to create a better culture. The laws in Mexico are a lot more relaxing that other places in this topic so we are not obligated to have the dogs with muzzles when we are taking a walk or pay an insurance depending of the breed we own.

I will be sharing picture when I receive the puppy!!

Saludos,
