Oh lovely,some good news .
Can’t imagine not holding your babies
Many owners of Staffies maintain they are loving dogs with a close affinity to children.Nanny Dogs.
They are powerful and if they cut up rough there is great strength in that low centred four square chunky frame.
They also have a jaw which does not release,so having bitten they can’t let go so shake ,similar to shaking say a rabbit to death .
That can do terrible damage without the dog intending that.
They were after all originally bred to bait bulls, as the general idea was if an animal ,bull, was distressed before slaughter the meat would be tender.
Don’t know how true that is ( either the story or the theory)but generally held in far off days - seemingly-.
( I am hedging my bets!)
Of course any dog in the wrong hands can be dangerous , some lovely breeds went out of popularity because of the type of person,notably drug dealers who had them for protection,
German Shepherds .
Doberman Pinschers .
Staffies. Crossed with something or other for the Pit Bulls .
Rhodesian Ridgebacks.
Mind you —— !
There is a Norfolk Terrier close by, lovely to look at but he owns the road, !
Let’s hope the fence is made really strong , or else as others I can see a serious accident,
How are the dogs when other dogs pass?Have you seen that?
Mind you guarding their territory is a bit understandable ,even though no one goes in.
I said to someone jokingly on the phone that I wished I could have a dog for Christmas ,they came back with -
“ Have you tried ordering one at Walmsley’s?”
They are our local Q Butchers.Superb meat and pork pies nicer than any I have tasted elsewhere .
Well must get on.
Cheerio ,look after yourselves everyone .Viktoria.
