Well, it depends. Lets say they are. To make that happen, there has to be a good line of breeding, (NO inbreeding) and you will probably (to get the most nice out of your dog) have to get one as a puppy. From a good breeder. Here are some signs of a puppy mill and/or bad breeder:

1) When he/she asks to meet with the puppy/dog somewhere else rather than their house.

2) When you go into their house and it smells of dog urine and poo.

3) When their dogs are aggressive.

4) When their dogs are caged up in a cramped space.

and finally:

5) When the breeders dogs look as if beaten or scratched up.

Start training your puppy as soon as possible. Socialize it with other dogs, teach it how to sit, stay, and lie down. You can look up further information by going on YouTube and typing up 'puppy training basics' and 'how to train a puppy' and more about puppies/staffies.

OH! I forgot to tell you, staffies need at least 5 walks a week... Probably more. I hope you have a medium-sized yard for your staffie to run in! And also, staffies are great dogs!! You just need to be loving, and they WILL be loving back to you!!

I have just got a staffie today, and it is very calm and loving. We are giving it everything it wants and everything it could possibly get. They do not attack and they are not supposed to be a great fighting dog..... The one I got doesn't bark and it's just a mardy bum. I love it to pieces and I never thought I would of said that about a dog :)<3

The Staffordshire Bull Terrier is subject to lots of stereotyping and negative attention from the media, but in this case, it is best not to believe what you see in the newspapers. The Staffordshire Bull Terrier is the highest scoring of any breed of Dog in temperament tests performed by the American Temperament Test Society. They are often nicknamed ''The Nanny Dog'' because of their love and tolerance of children. As with any breed of Dog, the temperament will depend on how it is raised. Staffordshire Bull Terriers tend to attract the wrong type of owner, who just want them as status symbols in gangs and for illegal dog fighting. When raised with loving and responsible owners, the Staffordshire Bull Terrier can be the very best, loving and trustworthy of pets.
