American Staffordshire Terrier - Andonas Kennels

[Robrt420]

I gotta make sure my am staff is with me everywhere I go in the car. If I break down she can pull me home:)

[salamihda]

Many compliments to the character and the morphology of your Amstaff.. Congratulations..

[VickyRose201191]

Maravilloso!Amazing!

[4feeterkurwaa]

im sorry to say but i dont like the way u raised him coz u had ppl by the gate and he was getting aggressive i have a pit i know how he is awesome no disrespect of course but what if u had kids by the gate sir?

[stopdropndpanic]

I am wanting to get an AmStaff in a couple years when I move out as a puppy but I already have another dog which is a Mountain View Cur. I wanted to know if you think that they would be alrigh t together, MY dog "sissy" lives up to her name shes extremely submissive in most cases the only time shes ever shown aggression was when a pit bull was in our yard she chased it down but didn't even try to attack it...so yeah just wanna know your thought.

[4feeterkurwaa]

@stopdropndpanic amstaff and pitbull look alike but they are not the same thing bro what are u trying to find out i can help u out i owe a pit i also train what did u need?

[stopdropndpanic]

@4feeterkurwaa Nah dude I know amstaffs and pitties aren't the same I was saying the only time my current dog *which is a mountain view cur* ever showed dog aggression was when she went after a pitbull. But I wanted to know if I get an amstaff as a puppy if you think my current dog who is VERY submissive would get along with the puppy vise versa.

[4feeterkurwaa]

@stopdropndpanic well it all depends i have a question tho why is she so aggressive against other dogs?? i thinks its maybe because shes jealous and if u get an amstaff and they raise together then you should be just fine its going to be the first impression when she/he gets home.

[stopdropndpanic]

@4feeterkurwaa I've only seen her be aggressive once because a dog nobody knew was on her territory she literally submits to chiwahwas

[4feeterkurwaa]

@stopdropndpanic if u rasie a bully u have you have to be dominant dont let the dog take controll over u if u know what i mean? 

[stopdropndpanic]

I can't wait to get my staffie!

[jeretel]

STAFFIES FUCKING RULE!!!!!!

[TheRolex90]

el mio es igual hahahaha

[mouse2883]

OMG amazing!



[STAYHARD2]

Yes..It is all about selective breeding.. the dogs in this video meet more of the APBT standard then the..Am.Staff one..They do all share the same bloodlines...they jus went in different directions....I love them all...when one "looks" like a PIT BULL and bites someone...and all in the local town want it's head...but not the owner...they care very little about breed conformation..bloodlinse etc.

[blastermitch]

These dogs are pure bred and papered! Andonas breeds for size rather than standard. Nothing wrong with that. No one cries when they see a Rotty etc that is bigger than standard. Just because of the whole pit bull and amstaff thing, people get all upset. If you don't like the dogs, don't buy one! Personally, I like them, and I'm not showing my Amstaffs, so if I was ever in the market for another, I'd consider Andonas.

[glenelg1982]

Funny that, my older comment gets removed around the same time I'm called being jealous... The comment which explains exactly why ANDONNAS KENNELS ARE SO SHIT

[uVALERAdebil]

nise



[xXDzoniXx]

1:30-1:35 the best haha !!!!

[AzzurryStreet]

they are american bulldog mixes for sure.

[vgrivakis]

@AzzurryStreet Obviously your eyes have never seen such amazing pure breed american staffordshire dogs before so your in shock and dont believe your eyes or you have bought an american staffordshire from a different kennel and it isnt half the size of these QUALITY dogs which infact come with papers from ANDONAS KENNELS ! And are purely jealous and in denial. :)

[AzzurryStreet]

@vgrivakis why is size so imprtant. how about health and temperment?? or speed and agility?? or howbout these fucking dogs arent amstaffs just like bandogs arent cane corsos. denial?? are u talking about me or u. these fucking dogs are like 80 lbs? ahhhh that aint an amstaff ok. an i aint jealous believe me, i never wanta dog this overly massive and did u see when it came charging out like a raging bull when the guy was on the fence. that aint in the breed, this guarding shit is ambull for real.

[blastermitch]

@AzzurryStreet These aren't American Bullies. This guy has been breeding for years but he breeds for size and muscularity, rather than conformity to the standard. They're still Amstaffs, just not ones that would do well in terms of conformance, I guess. American Bullies aren't in Australia as the American Pit Bull Terrier has been banned for a while now. I've seen some big red nose pits, but it's hard to say what's around.

[AzzurryStreet]

@blastermitch yeh fuck conformation thats sort of why i gave up on the amstaff. i see what your saying but im almost positive that early on they bred pitbulls with something to distance them. i know alot of people say they are the same breed but in reality their bloodlines have been separated for so long that they are eligible to be classed as two breeds. they are so different from a real apbt, like the chest and even the looks in the face. but these dogs are so far from conformation it's wierd.

[AzzurryStreet]

@blastermitch oh and when i said ambull im old school sorry, i meant american bulldog. lol. american bullies arent guard dogs no matter how hard these gangsta wannabes try to make em. sorry for the confusion, these dogs are definitely not american bullies, way to tall and less exaggerated, they still look like they got american bulldog but hay as i said i think the amstaffs as a whole had shit added to em so it really makes no difference.

[blastermitch]

@AzzurryStreet American Bullies definietly have something added into them. I read years ago the famous Gotti line pits were proven to have Bull Mastiff, I think in them. As for these Amstaffs, like I said, he has papers for them, so they must be pure. He just takes the biggest pair and breeds. I've seen one Amstaff that stood up on his back legs and his head almost reached the top of a yard fence! He was huge. Then my boy is only 25kgs. But his dad was bigger.

[AzzurryStreet]

@blastermitch yeh ofcourse, the american bully is essentially a mutt, bull mastiff, neo mastiff, cane corso, dogo canario, anything they can get their hands on and then sell em for 10 grand. wtf?? then they say oh theyr blue and rare?? not the most trust worthy people. with the amstaffs though its just ive seen 'pure' dogs with papers and they have like over hanging lips or whatever u call em and like some of em are WAY too overexagerated and this just made me wonder if something was added??

[blastermitch]

@AzzurryStreet I'm not sure if you mean Andonas Amstaffs, or Amstaffs in general, but the breed is basically the same as the American Pit Bull Terrier. They have just been selectively bred for size, shape, colour and temperament since the early 1900's. It's not hard to breed for specifics. I've seen HUGE English Staffordshire Terriers, and I've seen small. You just gotta keep breeding with what you want, and size is popular these days. My old pit bull was only 19kgs, but very athletic.

[AzzurryStreet]

@blastermitch i meant amstaffs in general. like if u look at a pure gamerbred (aka. real pitbull) adba conformation looking dog and match it up against an akc amstaff the differenced are extremely noticable, youde have to be a fool to think otherwise. its like a doberman and a rottie. and yeh it doesnt supprise me that your dog weighed that much the apbt is a working dog thus varied, extremely varied. i just think anytime a dog is bred solely for looks then it has no place for me even amstaffs.

[blastermitch]

@AzzurryStreet Don't forget, the Amstaff has been selectively bred for what, 80 years now? Of course they are gonna look different to the APBT of the early 1900's. Most selective breeding for standard confirmation is for looks! Just look at the Westminster dog show. None of those dogs are bred for their 'gameness'. These days dogs shouldn't be bred for gameness. Dog fighting is a disgrace. I dunno if that's what you mean when you mention breeding dogs for looks.

[AzzurryStreet]

@blastermitch i never mentioned gameness at all. all i said was any dog that is bred for looks has no place in this world. im sorry. i know ur probably a pet person rather than a working person like me but it doesnt matter. most so called 'show dog' breeders breed for looks over things more important to the breed as a whole like health and temperment. look at the boxer for example, used to be a valued working dog and now most of them dont live past 5 because they are riddle with genetic defects.

[AzzurryStreet]

@blastermitch now i am probably gonna get killed for what im about to say but i really dont care.

The 'pit-bull' type as a whole have inherent dog aggressive traits, thats a fact and dont historically have human aggressive tendencies what so ever thats also a fact. so when u breed out dog aggression u are left with a dog that has extreme prey drive and has nothing else to release this drive onto except humans. so breeding out so called gameness leaves us with the current state we're in now. BSL!

[blastermitch]

@AzzurryStreet Nah, I don't agree. I agree they are dog aggressive, but I don't think selective breeding will turn that aggression towards people. I think all dogs have the ability to bite, but it's just when pits do, it makes the news. The dog bite statistics are so wrong it's not funny. I've been bitten by a schnauzer, mini fox terrier and mini poodle out of aggression. I was bitten once by a pit bull accidentally that was fighting when I tried to break it up.

[AzzurryStreet]

@blastermitch human agression is different to dog agression. just like to point that out. and some breeds like the pitbulls ar more likely to develop dog agrssion than other breeds. when u breed away from the inherent dog agression they attack humans. simple as that. they become more or less a smaller rottie without natural guard instincts.

[blastermitch]

@AzzurryStreet You just gotta watch Cesar Milan to see pit bulls are not the monsters people think they are. I also think people make their pits aggressive for guarding purposes. Not everyone has a big enough yard for a rotty or shepherd, so they get pits and rev them up. Then, the dogs get loose and attack anything that moves. I think all dogs can be trained to be aggressive, but it's because pits can do such damage that they make headlines. I'd prefer they brought in licenses for them than BSL

[AzzurryStreet]

@blastermitch i completely and absolutely agree with that. because they arent natural guard dogs people try to 'harden' them up by using very questionable and damaging tactics. in turn these dogs dont know when and when not to guard and as u said start attacking anything that moves. not to mention the fact that they are a favorite to these criminals because of their unmatched loyalty. i think there should definitely be a lisence not just for pits but for all pwer breeds. 'powerful breed lisence'

[blastermitch]

@AzzurryStreet Yeah, that's not a bad idea at all. I mean, if you need a license to ride a jet ski, a license to own a dangerous animal (and let's face it, any powerful breed has the potential to be dangerous) would be a good idea. It should be like the RSPCA when they come to inspect your yard when you adopt. BSL is not the solution. People are still being bitten but by other breeds. I don't understand the fear around pits. I'd rather be attacked by a medium sized dog than a rotty or doberman!

[AzzurryStreet]

@blastermitch Yeah BSL is so stupid. people are still gonna have pitbulls & its the bad owners that will thus intern attacks will still occur. i think breeding should be regulated and the laws very strict because there is far too many dogs over populating shelters being unnecessarily put down every year because of idiot owners & breeders. I think the reason people are afraid of pits is because they picture this massive beast 150lb bandog bully mut rather then the actual medium size dog.

[blastermitch]

@AzzurryStreet At the end of the day, I think there is a larger problem that is being missed. People are blaming the dogs which have gained popularity due to the media, and wankers wanting to look tough with a muscular dog i.e gangsta wannabes. The real issue is education. I was told by my parents when I was a kid, not to trust any dog. They are an animal. My friend got bitten by my amstaff during a fight, because he grabbed his tail trying to break it up! You don't do that.

[AzzurryStreet]

@blastermitch yes i was just about to say that. never trust anydog if u dont know it. so many times i see fools running up to dogs talking in that dumb voice as if they are talking to babies and i just think wtf are u doing idiot, or the owner tries to make u pat it by saying oh he dosnt bite. buddy if it has teeth it bites. and ye its the medias fault, think about it everydog that has been prepped up by the media sudenly becomes the most popular dog amongst idiots, dobe 70's, rottie 90's.

[blastermitch]

@AzzurryStreet People need to understand, dogs are animals and they all have the ability to bite. A family friend of ours had two dobermans guarding his property and I was told as a kid not to go near the dogs. Do I hate dobermans? No. I just understand these two in particular had been trained to be aggressive in certain situations and I shouldn't risk being bitten, so I stayed away from them. The problem is kids these days aren't taught how to deal with dog behaviour.

[AzzurryStreet]

@blastermitch and yeh wtf is with kids these days, they seem to be so clueless when it comes to dogs. i mean there was attacks but no where near as many as there is today. and if there was a crazy dog in the area it was like sandlot, nobody went anywhere near that shit. your ball went over thats it no more ball. and if a dog did get out which is what happend to me when i was 11, a german shepherd, u would bail like there was no tomorrow or get a stick or somthing, not get in the fetal position??

[blastermitch]

@AzzurryStreet Well the issue is the bigger picture. It's parenting. Parent's aren't teaching kids basic life skills these days. I was told if two dogs were fighting to stay right away. I was told if a dog charges me, not to run, but back away slowly, and don't look it in the eye. I was told if it did try to bit me, to kick it as hard as I could. I've been charged by cattle dogs and large poodles, loads of dogs, but I don't blame the breed, I blame the individual dog and owner.

[AzzurryStreet]

@blastermitch yeh nevr look em in the eye, make it look like ur not giving them any attention, thats basically what i was told. and yeh u gotta blame the owner not the dog. every dog is born stable, people make them unstable.

[blastermitch]

@AzzurryStreet Exactly. The very first time I ever fed my Amstaff, he growled at me. I got him, put him on his side and held him down. I made it pretty clear that wasn't gonna fly. He has never ever done it again, and anyone can feed him and take food away from him. It just doesn't work around other dogs! It's weird how they have that aggression towards other dogs. I guess it also depends on the dog. My guy has small man syndrome. He likes small dogs, but also like bigger sooky dogs.

[AzzurryStreet]

@blastermitch hahah sounds like a real champion.

[blastermitch]

@AzzurryStreet Yeah, he's an awesome dog. I just wish I had socialised him more as a pup. When I got him I was working a lot and studying, and didn't take him to puppy school, so he doesn't know how to act around other dogs. He challenges them, and if they attack, he will fight. He doesn't just attack them straight up. And I accept that it's my fault. I'm over in Canada now for a couple of years, and I can't bring him here cause they're banned. It's stupid. So he stays with my parents.

[AzzurryStreet]

@blastermitch aww thats bullshit. fuck BSL it fixes nothing, sometimes i think all they want us to have is fluffy little rats.

[thademonsjester]

Andonas has a good name here in oz so if you dont live here then yu dont know ya shit..................

[vgrivakis]

Wow well done Dad to see all these amazing dogs grow up infront of my eyes and see how well you have done over the years makes me very proud to call you my father these are deffinently the best American Staffordshires Australia has ever seen!

Only the best of the best and top of the top quality comes from Andonas Kennels!!!

To have such amazing dogs im not suprised how many people are jealous of your success dad and try and put your kennels down when in reality everyone knows there just jealous

[NathonStone]

I had to leave a comment when I watched this. I just bought two American Staffordshire Terriers, they are 6 weeks old now and we love them "O" so much. I wish everybody who thinks these breed of dogs are dangerous to children or like what that guy above stated (12983263) that they are bullies. These people just don't understand that a dog (OF ANY KIND) is a by product of its owner. If you are mean the dog will be the same. Great vid bud I will be showing this to many ppl. Two thumbs up!!

[Lamodademiami]

Beautiful dogs!

[laayloow]

daaaaamnnnnnnnn look at his big ass head

[blackwren56]

Have any of u been 2 Andonas Kennels? Theo is a nice guy and loves his dogs and has been breeding for many many years, I personaly have been there and met all his dogs and they have have good temps, and yes some r big and same r 2 breed standard 2....

[Useromanch]

I am glad to see how American Staffordshire Terriers can live together with other dogs and children!

P.S. But...I saw there one bad moment,by the way not only I,but also other user "09bubb",how as the man was driving dangerously and god was in the car..

For what? For fun? ...

[JuveTube777]

great dogs!

[glenelg1982]

Theo from Andonas Kennels does - the owner of Andonnas, Id say showing off is more important than if his dogs het hurt...

[09bubb]

WHAT KIND OF IDIOT DRIVES LIKE THAT WITH DOGS IN THE CAR..?

[12983263]

Good looking dog if that is what you want... holds it's own!!! i do think they look a bit like bullies due to the size and over hanging lips, not a true amstaff as far as i am concerned. Bigger does not mean better.

[glenelg1982]

This balance extends to the ratio of his bone size and general body weight. He must never be exaggerated. The balance of power and agility must always be kept in mind. This is what the detailed breed standard states. These dogs are being bred not to keep in line with this but to be big oversized tough wank dogs that he dresses up like they are heading to a day out at the mardigrah. So is not all about being stocky otherwise you may consider a pug? 3 words, unethical, puppy farm.

[vgrivakis]

@glenelg1982 One word "Jealousy"

[glenelg1982]

@vgrivakis to pups that die early and dont look like they should.. ?? Umm no :D

[glenelg1982]

He is “a well put-together dog, muscular, but agile and graceful”: The proper specimen will appear graceful as well as agile. This is totally descriptive of a “normally” built dog, without excess or exaggeration in any way. He is a balance of power and agility. He must display both. Any specimen, who is exaggerated, to appear so muscular as to no longer display agility and grace is no longer balanced.

[Rejoice0In0Fire]

dont u steal puppies from dog shows?

[roxansudo]

NICE!!!! Long live the Terrier! Say No To B.S.L.................... Say no to cropping, its a sad thing, they look tough as is and are well behaved with training, Lovely dogs but not for mass production, 25 years 4th dog has made me strong and loyal, but they need adoption, not just cool pups, need a settled owner, you have a great lookin pad in doggy heaven 5* :)

[extremefreak7]

not pure American Staffordshires...look more like AmBullies.

[Roastedtimtam]

AWESOME!! You're dogs are by far the best American Staffies that I have ever come across! I've never seen so much quality in the breed.. You can see the power and strength in your dogs... well done!
