DISTAFF STAFFORDS INFORMATION
please review carefully

We have had Staffordshire Bull Terriers since 1984. We carefully breed our dogs to meet the Breed Standard and respect the breed’s heritage. Our emphasis is on health, temperament and type to ensure our dogs are stable and sound family members. Many of our dogs are CKC Champions in Conformation; others have performance titles in sports and games. We have five Staffords at home, they have their CKC Championships; but they are our pets first and foremost. We and our friends are with them constantly. They are crate trained, but never crated for long periods of time.

Our dogs have genetic panel testing for Hereditary Cataracts, L2-HGA and degenerative myelopathy. They are PennHip tested to evaluate hip health. All puppies are CKC registered and microchipped. Puppies can go to their new homes after their first set of vaccinations at eight weeks. The current placement fee is $3000.00.

If you are interested in our dogs, we invite you to visit our home in Sidney, BC

to meet us and our dogs.

We do not place a puppy with first-time Stafford owners we have not met in person.
We do not sell dogs on-line.

We place our puppies according to temperament and personality. All puppies are placed in homes we feel best match their temperaments and needs of the new owner. Our goal is to ensure the best fit for you, your family and lifestyle. If there is a puppy with potential show quality, we will place it with an individual interested in CKC Conformation showing. Please let us know if this interests you.

We breed one litter per year, and some years none. We maintain a list of potential owners, at their request, and notify them when a litter is planned.We request that all puppies are allowed to mature fully before being sexually altered. This means a minimum of three heat cycles for females and the age of two years for males. This significantly contributes to the health, soundness and longevity of your dog.

If for some reason you cannot keep your dog, we expect you to contact us immediately. If there are significant health issues with your dog, please let us know. We want our dogs to be healthy and happy.

Please fill in the questionnaire below if you are interested in our puppies. We appreciate your interest in our breed.
