Glad to see you here, Anne, and your little dogs, too! Are you ever in the right place with your Staffies. This is the most pro-Pit/Amstaff bunch you've ever met. We love the much maligned critters here.

Thanks for making me so welcome. Its great to hear Renee that my Staffy's will be made welcome here. I have been reading some of the posts and its great there's so many of you who feel so passionate about such topics like the Pit Bull ban.
I'm sure I'll be posting my feeling about the matter shortly.
Anne.

:cool: Hi Anne
My mum says to say hello. We live in Essex. I don't like the fireworks tonight.
There will be more tomorrow. I'm glad my mum hasn't gone out. She is here to protect me.
Love Leo

Wow, your Cassy looks like my CJ (pit bull terrier mix). I just posted her picture in the member galleries today. She runs our household. I love her so much! I love all the pictures of your dogs. Welcome to the board!

LOL! Anne, is that suspicious looking puddle behind Minnie in her baby photo what her expression seems to lead one to think?

Anne, do you keep your dogs together? Do they get along with each other? I love your family.

Just seen your picture Barb and I must agree Cassy does have a look of your dog.
All my lot give together in peace and harmony,lol, well most of the time anyway. No seriously they all get on great. Pecking order in our house is well and truely sorted out. Cassy is top dog followed by Ruby then her pup and poor old Harvey is bottom of the list. I think Minnie the pup will take over Ruby's spot when she's older as Ruby's so laid back and isn't too bothered who's in charge as long as she gets her food and her place in the bed.
I love my family too Barb there great!
Anne.
Greetings! Me and Dudley are from Bournemouth. He's a Staffy and if I could sum him up in one word it would be: difficult. He was abandoned and I think he was mistreated a bit. I got hold of him at 15 weeks. He's slowly getting better but he is way too excited ALL the time and he never sleeps cos he loves having fun too much. By having fun, I mean jumping on people and biting peoples hands off. You know how it is though, no matter how bad they are, you gotta love them.

Hi Iggy,
It sounds like Dudley is going through his hyper puppy stage. I went to visit one of Ruby's pups last week and he's just the same he bit me twice and drew blood, I wasn't too pleased. Its great that you took him on and gave him a chance to have a good life. Are you planning to have anymore?
Anne :)
Yeah I am getting another one. He has a friend, Holly, who is getting on a bit. Noone knows her real age cos she was rescued from a puppy farm. She's an English bull terrier. They will soon be parted though cos I'm moving house and she is going elsewhere so I'm going to get him another friend. I'd like to breed him although I don't have any of his pedigree papers so I'm gonna give the poor fella the snip. You call it a hyper puppy stage? I'm not sure this hyper puppy stage is meant to go on for 9 months...and counting.

Don't worry too much about the hyper puppy stage, my Cassy is 5 this week and still has her mad half hour every morning. She gets them all going and all 4 of them chase round then she usually sits back once there all on one and watches them getting told off :)
