Breedia Dog Forum
Actually, in this area `Irish Staffy` is used as a euphemism for a pitbull.
I think it`s more that the Standards aren`t that common. A friend has one and she keeps getting asked if it`s Doodle of some sort! They`re great...
GSD :grin: What`s the total so far?
Do they swim? I think I want one.....:roll:
Lovely dogs - what are the Welsh ones like? And what advantages are there to the Springer / spaniel cross?
That sounds right to me - although it would vary with the character , experience and training of individual dogs as well as being affected by breed....
In my experience any dog will hunt and kill, given the chance - and why not? It`s totally normal and indeed a positive survival trait. The `high prey...
As I understand it, prey drive can be exhibited with toys, passing cars etc. - it`s the instinct to chase moving objects. Collies and GSD`s can well...
my point exactly! It is, however their sad fate, since the creatures seem to be bred for some romantic notion of `Wolfness` rather than good...
Possibly :lol: But a Bedlington isn`t pretending to be a sheep. There seems to be a cachet among these breeds in having an implied recent link to...

Becaus the GSD is a breed created frm a variety of dogs (one of whom had a white parent) we are bound to get different colours appearing. I...
Once a breed is `set` the standard lays out the conformation etc. This is partly to make them fit for purpose and also to ensure their health is it...
The vast majority of dogs will be pets. Not working dogs, not protection dogs, not show dogs. And for pet dogs what sells is a good-looking dog with...
I`ve heard the `can`t be distingushed from a sheep `arguement before. Considering how many GSDs are used for sheepherding I don`t really think that`s...
The first part of your post is accurate. The second is frankly untrue. You appear to be encouraging people to break the law because the odds are that...
