The fashion over the last few years for chunky, blue, big headed, low slung, short legged dogs that bear no resemblance to what the breed originally looked like will bring a host of health issues at eye watering prices
There's a Staffie we've got to know really well that lives near my parent's house in Suffolk. It such a lovely dog, super gentle and fun. It takes part in dogs shows and has been shown at Crufts. It does not look like any of the staffies I see in our local parls. Its taller, has a smaller head, no underbite. As you say, the difference between the breed standard and what you see out and about is huge!
