i've been thinking about my potential show pup for a while now... and i
think i'll have trouble getting away from the bully breeds. so i've decided
on a Staffy Bull. the SO and i think it would be feasible to introduce a
pup into our pack in about 2-3 years, as hopefully the kids will be somewhat
grown up by then. :-)

anyway, i recently stumbled across the website of this local breeder:

http://www.classystaffys.com/

to my untrained eye (i've never bought a dog from a breeder), they look very
good. limited breedings, championships in multiple countries, obedience
titles, therapy dogs, agility and flyball dogs, and most important, good
health testing (not just hips and eyes, but thyroid, heart, etc).

how about it? do they throw up any warning flags to anyone? or have i
stumbled upon something good here?

That's a very nicely developed and detailed website. It looks like alot of
thought & planning went into not only the presentation but the entire scope.
From what I read (I admittedly didn't read every word of every page), the
pedigrees I saw and the many submitted pictures of past get w/their new
owners, I'd feel very comfortable talking with this breeder. I think the
fact that so many owners of past get sent in pictures speaks to the degree
of communication & comfort the owners have with the breeders.

I have to say though, of the entire site, Guy, the gorgeous black male AM/SA
Ch. Crossbow's Final Justice is just *breathtaking*!
