Meet Sniper
Staffordshire Bull Terrier, 2 years old
My favourite thing about Sniper is...
He is just a big softie. He is a big boy, and he is so friendly and loving.
The biggest challenge with Sniper is...
He barks at everything that goes past the house which can be annoying.
The most surprising thing about owning a Staffordshire Bull Terrier is...
Is how loving they are. They are the perfect family dog. They're not too big and don’t lose loads of hair; they are a terrific dog.
What I wish I’d known about Staffordshire Bull Terriers is...
They need plenty of exercise so not good for people who aren't prepared to walk them regularly.
Did you know?
Developed originally by James Hinks of Birmingham, this breed was appearing at dog shows as early as 1862. But it wasn’t until the 1930s when it was recognised as being a separate breed from the Bull Terrier, and had a name change to distinguish the two, adding the county name where it had become so popular.
