Lovely baby and great dog!! Why can't people see what nice dogs these are? Intact there are more Labrador attacks than any other breed and yet they don't make the headlines? Hopefully soon people will see that if one of these dogs are vicious it's because it's owner brought it up this way. They just want to please their master.

where does the name 'nanny dog' come from?..

[egreen316]

Bull breeds are sometimes called Nanny dogs b/c they can be very good with children despite popular belief.

i own a staffy myself who is as soft as a brush and brilliant around children...... however, my heart was in my mouth watching that because no one takes my dogs toys when she's playing !!!

[brunster1]

no, he is gentle and will allow us to take anything from him, infact he likes that the best a bit of a game of who can get it out of his mouth.

I have had to stick my whole hand in before to retrieve objects not for swallowing !!

My staff loves been around kids, he's more gentle with them than he is with adults that's for sure.

islandtraction you are so right they are so good with children do people really think i would put my little angels in danger by having a dangerous dog in my house?

[angelsinmyhead]

My two staffies love kids.

[brunster1]

thanks he is just the best dog !!

Nanny dog is right! In the early days of the breed, the aristocracy used them for exactly that, of protecting their children. Anyone who knows the breed is aware of their loving nature. Who and how can have caused this to become so inaccurately corrupted?
