About Staffordshire Bull Terriers

The Staffordshire Bull Terrier is one of the UK's most popular rescue dogs — and one of the most misunderstood. Staffies are affectionate, playful, and deeply people-oriented. They were historically fighting dogs but have been bred as family companions for over a century, and the modern Staffie is known for its love of children, earning the nickname "the nanny dog."

Adopting from rescue
