That's really interesting to see. When whippets see squirrels they make themselves low to the ground, pin their ears back and stalk forwards trying to make minimal noise. Staff body language is really different!

I think his pose probably comes from staffies' fighting past - stand up straight, make themselves big, lean in, etc. It's certainly how they square up to another dog. He does this when he sees a squirrel or cat, but doesn't immediately take off and will happily move to a sit from the position in that photo. Give him a treat and pop the lead on and it's all good.
He will do that low to the ground and slow steps thing to mimic certain dogs he knows, before tearing off for a chase and play.

Back from getting spayed. Extremely dopey but otherwise fine, didn't even complain as we were lifting her in and out of the car on the way home. Hoping she doesn't get too bored having to stay at home for at least a week!
