 I am so glad there is people out there who care
about the staffies and love them. My ex happy staffie was called piglet....now milly,
shes amazing! loves to meet people and other dogs....very friendly and other dog owners in our local park are suprised by
how lovely she is.....now they dont protect their dogs when they see milly as they know she is a lil angel.....who likes to
play kiss chase!! just a lil fuss pot for the other dogs owners too!! I love dogs and my fave are staffies! I hate it when they get neglected
for no reason. Those people that think they are aggresive are ever so wrong! I had 5 staffs. 2 girls and 3 boys, lovely they
are! Roxy was like my best friend! I know this might sound crazy but I told her everything, she protected me and loved me
but sadly we had to sell her, it was over a year ago but I still cry now :( Got a picture,we made sure she went to a
good home. Would love to take her back, I love you Staffies! They deserve a perfect home! :) After some 60 years of owning various small terriers, mostly Russells, I have recently taken on a Staffie & a Staffie Cross from my Grandson, whose partner has had a baby, causing them to move to accommodation not suitable for dogs. I find they are the most loving and patient dogs I have had!. They need to be looked after, as do all dogs. They return TLC with so much love, and are a joy to have in the house. They are VERY GOOD with children. I love them. John Bartleet (Stourbridge) 07/11/10I agree with
the lady from Stourbridge,about Battersea Dogs home. I wrote to them suggesting that they sack the "handler" who
took the red dog into a big room without saying anything to him, I said had the dog been vicious he would have pulled right
toward the other dog, instead he looked at the guy holding the lead as if saying "What do you want me to do" As
he got no response from the man, he decided to growl, thinking that was what the man wanted. Then this stupid guy said the
dog was vicious, & would have to be destroyed. I was incensed, I got an e-mail back to say that they do lots of different
tests,RUBBISH. Cynthia

We've kept staffies for over
25 years now - they are without doubt the most fantastic, loyal & loving dogs and we wouldn't have any other breed.
It's fantastic what you are doing to help the dogs who are usually in kennels through no fault of their own. Keep
up the good work. Vicky Howard (Oxford)

I wish there was a charity shop
based in London. People need educating about these beautiful and amazing dogs. I could never be without staffies
in my life now. There's never a dull moment in our house!! Fiona McNeill (London) 08/06/10
I am so overwhelmed by the amount
of organisations dedicated to these amazing animals, I own 2 staffies and with all the bad press sometimes it's difficult
to explain to people they are not what they are portrayed in the media, well done and thank you and please let me know if
there is anything in my area where I can get involved!!! Nichola Robinson (Sheffield) 02/06/10

good work Kim x Kim Redfern (Gloucester)

I wish there were more staffie
rescue charities around the country like yours. SBTs certainly could do with all of the help they can get right now.
It is such a shame as they are a fantastic breed and so mis-understood. I THINK YOU ARE DOING SUCH A WONDERFUL THING. Lisa Whant (Surrey)

I stumbled across your shop by
complete chance whilst doing a military parade through the town.I thought it was fantastic.We have a two year old staffie
called Dave that we saved from going into a rescue shelter by taking him off a couple we knew who were giving him up because
they were moving.I hope we can get involved with your fund raising events to help find more staffies a loving home. Bill Shakspeare (Sailsbury,Wiltshire) 13/03/10
I think what you are doing
is fantastic, I have two staffies of my own and if it was up to me Ii would be taking them all home with me, I have
3 chidren also and people do need to be educated about bringing dogs and children up together, it is possible if done
correctly. Gail Bromwich (Kidderminster)

I think it is amazing that there
is a charity specifically for this amazing and very mis-understood breed. They are the most loving and friendly dogs
I know! People are so irresponsible in getting dogs and not being prepared for the commitment having a dog entails.
So I think it is brilliant that there is a Staffie rescue specifically for them but find it really sad that it is necessary. Sara Bright (Dawlish) 10/11/09
I'm so happy that there's
a charity for this special breed! It's so sad that this breed is misunderstood due to people owning them for the wrong
reasons...not because they genuinely love them and want to provide them with a loving home for life. I hope this website makes
people realise what lovely family pets this breed can make. I have a staffie myself and we would not be without him! Now I
understand and love the breed it upsets me when while I'm out walking and notice how some people try and avoid you just
because of their perceptions of the breed.Give staffies a chance!! Anna Tidmarsh (Kidderminster) 29/10/09
I
am so pleased there is an organisation that are caring and promoting these wonderful dogs. My 1st pet was a staff and
my parents have another, my grandparents have always had them so I have grown up with them. It breaks my heart seeing
these caring animals degraded in the media because of a few careless owners. If I could I would rehome and love one
of these dogs, but unfortunately, as I rent I'm not allowed a dog! As soon as I can I'm sure I’ll pay
you a visit to collect and care for one of these dogs. P.S Freddie is gorgeous!! Rebecca Haile (Gloucester) 29/09/09
I think what you are doing is great because what has happened
to the breed by irresponsible owners and breeders is digusting. There are irresponsible breeders churning out litter after
litter of puppies as an easy way to make money. The aren't interested in the health of the dogs or of the good continuation
of the breed. What is just as bad are the owners who buy a cute little fashionable staffie puppy with no understanding
of the needs of the dog or the intention to find out. Something's got to give somewhere, the amount of staffies
and staffie crosses in kennels is obscene. I have a red staff myself and have grown up with the breed so
it's great to see that you are trying to educate people on the needs and nature of these loyal, family orientated
dogs.

I live a little too far away to help but am actively
involved with a rescue organisation, Rochdale Dog Rescue that helps poundie dogs find rescue places with reputable rescues
around the UK, so am all to familiar with the amount of poor staffies dumped - most of our dogs at the minute waiting for
places are staffies of course.
I do a little less volunteering with an organisation
called K9 search in walsall who again try to help reunite missing dogs and find places for the walsall poundies - again so
many staffies. Anyway just wanted to say have
book marked the site and to say well done for doing something to help these wonderful dogs and wish you all the best - as
the owner of two staffie crosses have a personal interest too in the plight of the number of dumped staffies.
Emma Clarke (Walsall) 03/07/09
Great, I think a Staffie rescue in
the local area is definitely needed.
