Say Hello to Rocky
Staffordshire Bull Terrier, 9 years old
My favourite thing about Rocky is...
He's a lovable boy and very friendly.
The biggest challenge with Rocky is...
Fireworks night!
The most surprising thing about owning a Staffordshire Bull Terrier is...
How loving and family orientated they are.
What I wish I’d known about Staffordshire Bull Terriers is...
The grief you can get from some people about them being fighters and aggressive - for some reason lots of people have issues with Staffordshire Bull Terriers - personally I don't see why as neither rocky or any of our other dogs have been.

Developed originally by James Hinks of Birmingham, this breed was appearing at dog shows as early as 1862.
