Known to their owners as blue staffy dog staffordshire bull terriers have gained popularity thanks to their docile and loving temperaments. These medium-sized dogs were originally bred to be fighting animals, but they have since evolved into family companions that are intelligent, learn quickly and respond well to reward-based training. They’re also tenacious and strong enough to defend their loved ones when necessary. As with any dog, it’s important to keep them safe and healthy by providing them with a balanced diet and early socialization.

A Staffordshire blue staffy dog  terrier is a muscular dog that has almost no body fat—and when a blue staffordshire bull terrier with dilute coloring is born, it will typically have a lighter color than its parents (the exact color depends on genetics and the color pattern of the breed). The coat comes in black brindle, red brindle, fawn or white with black or bluish markings. Their eyes are usually dark, and their ears are either rose or half pricked.

Training the Blue Staffordshire Bull Terrier

While they’re gentle with children and other pets, the staffie’s natural inclination to guard should be tempered through early socialization and dedicated training. This will make them safe and affectionate household pets that can live a long, happy life with the right family.

Like many other breeds, blue staffordshire bull terriers can suffer from health conditions that can shorten their lifespan. It’s crucial to only buy a puppy from a reputable, responsible breeder who cares more about the dog’s health and wellbeing than about making money off of it. This way, you can rest assured that your puppy will be free of hereditary diseases such as L-2 Hydroxyglutaric Aciduria, which may cause altered behavior, muscle stiffness during times of excitement or tremors.
