American Staffordshire Terrier

The American Staffordshire Terrier, known to their fans as AmStaffs, are smart, confident, good-natured companions who are eager to please their owners. Their courage is proverbial. A responsibly bred, well-socialized AmStaff is a loyal and trustworthy friend to the end. AmStaffs are stocky, muscular bull-type terriers standing 17 to 19 inches at the shoulder. The head is broad, the jaws well defined, and their dark round eyes are set wide apart. Their movement is agile and graceful due to their springy gait that advertises their innate confidence.
