Staffordshire Bull Terrier
Sturdy, playful and protective
Staffys 101
Terrier groupThe Staffordshire Bull Terrier, as much as the English Bulldog, has a claim to being the dog of England, and with good reason: The compact, muscular breed has been the best friend to generations of hard-working Britons. Once a scrappy fighting dog, today's Staffy has been largely reformed by responsible breeders into a funny, family-loving dog.

The Staffordshire Bull Terrier comes from a family of dogs known for their courage and tenacity. When Staffy Bulls were imported from England, U.S. breeders used them to create the larger, leggier American Staffordshire Terrier.
