staffy mix amstaff

[quote=troy]i just cross a male staffy bull to a female amstaff.does anyone have any info and photos on this particular cross. i am interested in learnig about their temperament, size and drive level. i want to have an idea how the pups will turn out.[/quote] Don't know much about the amstaff as never been around one. But i own a 3 year old male Staffordshire bull terrier, & they are lovely dogs around people, young & old. But when it comes to other animals no matter how small or big, they tend to attack with a passion. He's ok with the animals he grew up with (Brother male Jack Russel, friend male Staffordshire bull Terrier........) but thats about it, & he did get alot of socializing as a pup too. Goodluck Mate Where are you based by the way?

[quote=troy]Where are you based by the way? thanks a lot for the reply. i am base so very very far from you. in the middle of the indian ocean. SEYCHELLES. search it on the net[/quote] Yes far you are mate. Think you have chosen two very impressive breeds to cross. if you look at my last post, i was looking for an Amstaff female puppy for my gizmo with no luck what so ever. Is it an Old Theme staffordshire bull terrier you have or is it the show type?

Same here mate old theme all the way. They are becoming very rare in the uk though. Most staffords i c now a days are looking more like over weight Jack Russels. Get some picks up troy, would be good to c what your dogs look like.

Feel free to correct me if I am wrong, there are so many different types of bulldogs it's hard to distinguish sometimes one breed from the next....but I think for the most part the AmStaff is just a liitle taller, bigger version of the Staffordshire.

The AmStaff is actually the AKC show version of the APBT. The original standard was based on a Colby bred APBT, I would have to find the book and look up the name of the particular dog. The AKC basically took Pits and put a standard together and started breeding for form over function and "created" the AmStaff.

hope she makes it :wink:
