Some of the members of the staffie rescue got together on Sunday and took our dogs for a walk at Wetheral from the Crown Hotel

Here is our Staffie called Ben, we had to borrow a collar and lead as we left our's at home

Ben meeting a puppy, with my wife Dawn in the picture

Had to get a little shot of my car as well

 

i bet they LOVED that!!!

top work mate

 

They did mine wanted to go in the river for a play

 

what a suprise

Yet he hates going out in the rain but loves playing in water

 

I dont see a picture mate it was a good day

Bet it was a great day out

Here's my staff called Lucy

Looking as good as ever

 

Ours is the same, loves the brook, but hates the rain

 

glad its not just mine then

 

i love the staff i just wish i still had mine.

 

They are such a loving dog

 

Love the pics mate

this is a before and after picture of my babey





He had a fight with a tree branch

TREE 1 JACKO 0

 

glad to see he is ok now

 

Well he's sort of ok

when they removed his eye there was damage to
his optical nerve so he can't see now

But you can't keep a good dog down!
Ł2000 later and he's as crazy as ever

worth every penny

 

I did notice his eye just a good job the branch didnt go any further glad to hear it hasnt got him down

 

Don't you just love Staff's. They are a much misunderstood dog.

Here is one of mine helping out with the mk2

 

id love to have one but just havent got the time to care for it
some very nice pics of staffs there

 

bless it looks like a nice surpise

 

they always like to help out

 

That is so true, people think all they want to do is fight, gets me so angry when im working Marty and he`s off the lead, the first thing they say, does he bite

 

We get funny looks from people with there dogs even tho ours is on lead they still move out of there way to avoid us and give me a funny look

But I know at the end of the day my Staffie is very soft and a very affectionate dog

 

Thats so true love the red jacket

 

The one in the red jacket was an older dog, and with it being a bloody cold day the owner decided to put the red jacket on her dog

 

We are thinking of getting a puppy, trouble is at the moment when we go on holiday Marty stays with the nieghbours, dont think they could cope with a pup and him, so we will wait till we come back, would love a white one with the black patch on its eye

 

Last thing you want to do is leave a staffie pup with your neigbour as your neigbour may not like you when you get back as they can be a handfull when puppys but full of character

 

You can tell that to our stairs carpet both our Staffs have had a go at it They do look so Innocent after though

 

Reason why we thought about it was, Marty was a rescue dog, we had him when he was 3, now 9, we thought it would be nice to raise one from a puppy i know Marty would be fantastic with one, but we shall see

 

Be prepared for some hard work. My wife wanted a second Staff . I gave in so we have a dog and a bitch. Its hard work. Walks are the hard bit getting dragged about. And you need to keep the separate at night. Although they may be the best of friends it doesn’t take much for them to do serious damage to each other.
A lad I worked with had 2 bitches one morning he got up to find one of them had killed the other and he had not even heard a thing. Although every one who has them knows they are lovely dog, they were breed for fighting.

 

It will deffo be hard work

Also to add to the above, the staffie was bred originally as a bate dog for the Pit Bulls to get the pit bull ready for the fight how any one can do this tho is deyond me

 

Was thinking aswell, Marty might get jealous if we have a pup,you no know its that attention thing

 

When we used to Foster staffies for the rescue Ben (our staffie) used to sulk

 

mine get jealous if i stroke another dog

 

Also if the wife see's something cute on tv and says "aww thats cute" ours comes running over as he thinks he's the only cute thing allowed

 

Great pics. Would love to take my dog on a long walk like that. He's only 9 weeks old at the moment though and needs his second injections!
