NINA	ABOUT THE BREED

  NINA 27/01/10 - 1st BIRTHDAY              JEHST 02/01/10 - 15 MONTHS  

Hi I'm Mitchell and I have owned Bull Terriers since 1993, my first being George an American Pit Bull, George died from cancer of the spleen (age 13)  after an operation to remove the spleen the cancer had managed to spread through his body he went to sleep quietly around 10pm in his favourite spot in the garden (this was the only medical problem he ever had and believe me he got up to some mischief). George was a wonderful example of the breed and the best companion I could have ever asked for he was good to me, my family and touched the hearts of those that had the pleasure of his company, but more importantly he changed peoples perceptions and opinions of this type of breed. 

GEORGE @ 12 YEARS OLD

After George passed I wanted another dog as Pit Bull type dogs are banned in the U.K. I decided on its predecessor the Staffordshire Bull Terrier and rescued an 11th month black brindle dog he was so badly behaved but an absolute joy to work with and it was not long before I had him under control. His favourite games were fetch and fence jumping ! Due to unforeseen circumstances  Oscar now lives with a good friend .

OSCAR AFTER TRAINING AROND 15 MONTHS

A few months passed and I was ready to own and hopefully breed Staffordshire Bull Terriers, browsing the internet I was suprised to find Blue Staffords and decided this to be my first choice. It proved difficult at the time to buy a Blue bitch, me being a soft touch for the breed after looking at a litter with many show Champions Valglo/ Crashkon lines and strong Blue genes I could not resist and gave in !

I found me a Blue dog and named him Jehst

After a few more months of looking around I came across a litter in the West Midlands, the Sire also had Crashkon lines and the Dam had mainly Blue/White coloured dogs that were of the athletic type and closely line bred from Stockade lines, plus this time I had three girls to choose from, I chose the small Blue girl with White markings and named her Nina
