answer · American Staffordshire Terrier
I’d recommend them, but be prepared for a commitment. They are incredibly sweet and love to be part of the family. However, they can be strong-willed, so consistent training from day one is crucial.

Yes, I would!
answer · American Staffordshire Terrier
I'd say socialization is key. They are friendly and playful but need to learn how to be around other dogs and people.
answer · American Staffordshire Terrier
The myth about aggression bothers me too. My American Staffordshire Terrier is a big softie. It’s all about how they are raised.
answer · American Staffordshire Terrier
The lean is real. Mine follows room to room and leans the second I stop petting. Pro tip: sit against a wall when they lean. Your back will thank you. Still figuring it out like everyone else, Natalie.

What's been the biggest challenge with this breed?
answer · American Staffordshire Terrier
My American Staffordshire Terrier usually gets super excited when guests come over. He loves people and often greets them with a wagging tail and lots of energy.

Has your AmStaff ever completely surprised you?
question · American Staffordshire Terrier
People judge my AmStaff before they even meet him... then five minutes later they're asking for pictures 😂 Does this happen to anyone else?
