Notes |
|
The American Staffordshire Terrier is a
breed of
dog. These dogs are
related to, and were bred to be a show strain of the
American Pit Bull Terrier. American Staffordshire Terriers were first
recognized by the
American Kennel Club in
1936. The visual difference between American pit Bull Terriers and staffies is
that you will never find a staffie with a red nose but APBT's come with red and
black noses. To differentiate between blacknose APBT's and Staffies is the white
part of the eye should not be
visible on the staffie but it should be visible on the APBT, the only way for
the difference to be in effect is that the dog has to be looking perfectly
straight.
