Dog breeds: American Staffordshire Terrier
Even though this breed developed as a fighting dog they make loving pets. If you are interested in this breed and have small children then you will want to get your American Staffordshire Terrier as a puppy and raise it with your kids. This breed does not get along well with small pets like cats, ducks, and rabbits because it has a natural hunting personality. To care for this breed you will need to brush only occasionally. Dry shampoo is a good option with this breed as they are prone to skin conditions. They will also need daily exercise that challenges their muscle strength and endurance. Also, because of their natural hunting behavior they need to be trained properly to reduce negative confrontations with children and other animals.
