Staffordshire Bull Terriers by Steinstaff Kennels
Welcome!
Welcome to our site about Staffordshire Bull Terriers. I have been interested in this breed since 1980 when I got my first Staffy Dancer. I have been breeding champions
since the early 80's. This is a wonderful breed and I hope you will spend some time on our site learning about them and enjoying the pictures.
Please take a look at the many profiles and photos of our Staffies on this site. Though many of our dogs are serious contenders within the show dog circles, the vast
majority of our Staffies go to families that just want a beautiful, smart dog. These dogs are very athletic and prefer owners who will take them out for lots of exercise.
We typically have puppies and dogs available for sale throughout the year. Please call for pricing. To see some of our latest little ones,
visit our Staffie Puppies page.
Send us an email if you have any questions.
If you are looking for prime example, champion Staffies, spend some time browsing our site.
Thank you for visiting Steinstaff.com!!!
May 2011 Featured Staffies of the Month -
Saaz & Oscar
"Saaz and Oscar are a delight. They are
real members of the family; they are in tune with what's happening and are ready to either ham it up or cuddle, depending on what mood we're in."
"Faith taught our puppy training classes and told us that we'd get as much out of the Staffies as we put into them. She knows her dogs; and S + O have been the
greatest furry family members I could have hoped for."
"There are few problems that seem as bleak after I take these guys for a walk. Whenever I'm down, I'll leash them up and we'll go out. People on the street
just smile at us and tell me what great dogs I have and I simply start to feel better with all the positive vibes. When I get home and they both pile in my lap,
it's hard to feel bad."

Staffordshire Bull Terrier
It started in England when Bulldogs and Mastiffs were crossed to create a dog for bull-baiting and bear-baiting. Early in the 19th century, dogfighting became
popular and a smaller, faster "Bull and Terrier" dog was created which weighed around 60 lbs. Eventually, this Bull and Terrier was bred with a smaller terrier creating
what is currently known as the Staffordshire Bull Terrier.
Originally from Staffordshire, England, the breed has grown in popularity throughout the
world. Sometimes referred to as "Staffie", "Staffy", "Stafford" or "Staff" they are extremely popular in Austrailia and the United States.
Staffies are extremely muscular, compact dogs. They are often mistaken for Pit Bulls. Pit Bull is a generic term that generally lumps several breeds of dogs,
American Pit Bull Terrier, American Staffordshire Terrier, and the Staffordshire Bull Terrier. There are similarities betweeen the breeds but through years of
selective breeding they have all become individual breeds of dogs.
Staffies make excellent family dogs. In Europe, they are affectionately known as "nanny dogs" because they are so gentle with children and yet fearlessly
protective of them too. See our Photo Gallery that is filled with various pictures of our dogs with
their families.
You will not be disappointed if you choose to buy a Staffy. They are fantastic dogs. But, a word of caution... These dogs attract a lot of attention. So,
be prepared to field questions about your dog from people whenever you are out for a walk. It happens almost every time! And, get used to hearing "cool dog"
from strangers that you encounter when out and about with your Steinstaff Kennels Staffordshire Bull Terrier.
Call us if you have any questions for us or if you see a dog you are interested in. We do not list pricing online. That information is available only over the
phone.
We carefully screen all of our potential customers to ensure that our dogs will be well cared for. To further protect our dogs, be prepared to sign a contract
that disallows the breeding of a Steinstaff Staffordshire Bull Terrier without our documented prior approval.
Staffies are loving, great with kids and just an all around fun dog. We know you will like owning one. Our Customer Testimonials section
shows just how pleased our customers have been with our dogs. As you will see, everyone is very happy with their Staffie and loves them very much
