[QUOTE="whiplash306, post: 13659564, member: 33984"] OP, if you get one from a pup, they are an incredible companion to have around the house. They're extremely intelligent, eager to please and are more often than not, very loyal. I've never introduced any of ours to another animal that they didn't immediately like - dog, cat, deer, etc…. The biggest consideration you HAVE to keep in mind as a Pit/Staffordshire Terrier owner is the fact that they have been falsely demonized to such an extent that they become an instant liability to consider from birth on. By no means do I say that as a means to dissuade you, more as a means as to encourage extreme and very mature ownership of the breed. If you do it right, which I'm assuming you will, you'll change MANY, MANY people's opinions of the breed. However, if you were to not put in the work and instead throw them in the back yard, they'll not amount to anything more than any other neglected intelligent animal. Socialize them with EVERYTHING at an early age! - dogs, cats, kids, infants (with a close eye of course), blacks, whites, etc, etc. Literally go out of your way to create purposeful interaction with all of the above and you'll have a WONDERFUL, wonderful animal that will be a joyful family member for years and years to come! I could keep typing, but will leave you at this - if you'd like, I can recommend an EXTREMELY good breeder that you could inquire from. Send me a PM if interested…. [/QUOTE]
