Re: Bad owners

Staffordshire Bull Terriers have a reputation as fighting dogs

The name kind of gives it away (bred for bull-fighting, used later as defence dogs by taxmen because they have a strong pack protective drive).

they tend to be happy playful family dogs with a tendency towards getting fat

Indeed. Our staffie/jack cross[1] didn't ever get fat, but that was probably because she had no speed control between 'motionless' and 'blur'. She did slow down once she went blind though.

[1] Rescue dog that, within being with us for a week, was protecting our elderly cats against the young cat next door that was bullying them.
