Staffordshire Bull Terrier
Rio – 7 year old male Staffordshire Bull Terrier
Rio is a 7 year old male Staffordshire Terrier. He is looking for a patient, understanding owner who is willing to help him overcome his insecurities which can often be the case when dogs are abandoned. Rio is looking for a home as an only dog as you’ll have plenty to work on helping him see the world as a friendly place once again. He’s not good with dogs or small animals.
Colin – 2 year old male Staffordshire Bull Terrier
Colin is a 2 year Staffordshire Terrier boy. He was rehomed by us some time ago but sadly returned recently due to a family break up. He’s a rather handsome dark brindle colour and is a total sweetie! Colin is a loyal, affectionate boy who has a really sweet nature and is also housetrained and travels well. He’s not good with other animals so would like a home as an only dog please!
Pippa – 1-2 year old female Staffordshire Bull Terrier
Pippa is roughly 1-2 years and is a Staffordshire Terrier girl. She is looking for an owner who has plenty of time to exercise her and play with her too. Pippa can get boisterous so she would be better suited to a home with older or no children and would also benefit from dog training classes. She’s clean in the house and travels well but she is looking for a home as an only pet as she really isnt keen on other animals.
Estella Teddy Bear – 11 month old female Staffordshire Bull Terrier
Estella Teddy Bear is an 11 month old Staffordshire Bull Terrier girl who is currently in foster care in Congleton, Cheshire. Staffordshire Bull Terriers make great family pets hence the breeds well deserved nickname ‘The Nanny Dog’. They are companion dogs; very loyal and loving.They are an intelligent and active breed therefore you must have time on your hands to ensure they get lots of exercise. Socialisation with other dogs is paramount for any puppy/young dog to grow up well balanced.
Estella was hit by a car and the owners could not afford veterinary care and asked if the RSPCA could take her in. The first couple of photos show how extensive her injuries were; her knee cap was knocked out and she had an infection so amputation was discussed but thankfully her leg was saved.
She was also 2kg’s underweight upon arrival. She was taken in by one of our wonderful fosterers where she had cage rest and LOTS of TLC! Just look at her now!
Estella has been fully vaccinated, micro-chipped, wormed/flead and spayed. She had an x-ray; thankfully no fractures. She has now recovered but may still have a sore hip from time to time; she has metacam for this. Estella has a beautiful temperament, she is so incredibly friendly and affectionate. She is a small traditional Staffie.
A few words from her fosterer: Estella is perfect in the house; clean, quite and welcoming to visitors. She watches people and dogs pass the garden but never barks. She has been fantastic with Francine and never has shown any aggression whatsoever, even when she was in so much pain.
We’ve been advised that Estella is fine with other dogs but because she’s been on house rest for a few weeks we’ve not been able to introduce her to other dogs. She is very strong on the lead and needs some lead training, we recommend a harness.
Just look at that beautiful little face, how can anyone resist those big puppy dog eyes!
1Feb2012 | RSPCA Macclesfield South East Cheshire and Buxton | READ MOREAlice – 3 year old female Stafordshire Bull Terrier
Alice is a sweet 3 year old Staffordshire Bull Terrier girl. She’s already housetrained and travels well in the car. Alice is so food motivated that she’s a bit overweight right now but after a bit of a diet and some exercise, you could soon put her love of treats to good use training her to do some basic commands or even a few tricks! However, she does not like cats so couldn’t live with them! Her experience of being up for rehoming has naturally left her a little unsure and nervous of people so please be prepared for her to take a little time to learn you’re a trustworthy person and she’s now safe. She is very sensitive being led by her collar/neck but this is easily overcome by using a comfortable walking harness.
Jakey – 12 year old male Staffordshire Bull Terrier
Jakey is a 12 year old Staffordshire Terrier male. Jakey has spent a very long time in our care and would really benefit from a new owner taking a shine to him. He’s great with people and a really sweet boy but really struggles around other animals so would need to be an only dog.
Shorty – 4-5 month old male Staffordshire Bull Terrier
Shorty is THE MOST GORGEOUS LITTLE BOY and he is very much still a puppy. He desperately needs a proper home after being wickedly discarded by his previous owners. How could someone do that to poor Shorty, I so wanted to scoop him up and bring him home with me immediately. We sat in the run with him once we had finished his photographs and oh my goodness what a lovely boy he is! He sat beautifully with us and all he wants to do is to be cuddled and held and comforted, and I must have kissed his head a thousand times, bless him! He adored it and I adored him.
Shorty will need a new family who have plenty of time and attention to give him every day, and a family who will enjoy bringing up a young pup and teaching him what it is like to live a wonderful life with people who will love and cherish him forever. Shorty didn’t ask to be abandoned, he must have been so upset and so very scared to be on his own, it’s so upsetting that I can’t actually bear to think about it any more!
As said previously, Shorty needs lots of attention and interaction every day, he will need several nice, but short, walks every day for now, which can obviously be increased as he grows older. You will need an enclosed, secure garden for gadding about in and for extra fun and games.
Shorty will need to attend a good training class, where I’m sure he will be the star pupil. He learns very quickly and he was soon walking alongside me very nicely on his lead after just a few minutes. I wanted to walk out of the enclosure with him and take him straight to my car. This boy doesn’t just want a family to care for him, he NEEDS a family more than anything.
Shorty could live with other dogs, sensible, calm children and even cats!! Shorty will need to be neutered when he is old enough (you will receive a neutering voucher towards this), he has been fully vaccinated and is microchipped. Althought at our kennels in King’s Lynn in Norfolk, Shorty can be rehomed outside of the county (within reason) subject to a successful homecheck.
If you want a loving, fun, family dog then please consider Shorty, it will be one of the best things you’ll ever do!

Homing requirements: Key features will be time for a puppy: commitment for training through the first year in particular as his matures with your guidance. Our puppies tend to be homed into homes where they offer a complex home fluency e.g. cats or other dogs which keep that pup highly socialised.
His Story: Cookie was found stray and a pound asked if there was any way we could take him in and find a foster place. Pleased to say Cookie is being fostered with 3 cats! He is just being vaccinated and neutered.
Advert: Cookie is just that a sweet 5-6 month old puppy who delights in life and new adventures and is equipping himself in the process. His foster family have welcomed him in and are helping him to ‘find his paws’. Toilet trained and enjoys any training especially when rewards of praise or treats offered as ‘earnings.
Cookie is a beautiful brindle boy with huge appealing eyes. Flashes of white especially on his chin which is so endearing. He is leggy as he has done most of his growing and will bulk out in the next year, still got that ‘puppy’ look. Well his foster family are lovin’ him and no doubt his forever family soon will too!

Homing Requirements: Merry would be a treasure to any family. An only pet with no other pets visiting at this stage, for her own stability. Possibility of a regular fluent dog visitor, providing this was done carefully and her homing doesn’t rest on it. Secure garden and kept on an extender to ensure meetings with other dogs go well until proven to be able to cope as an off lead dog. Could live with children.
Her Story: Merry was found stray on Oct 11 with a painful eye condition. She has had 2 operations for ‘Cherry eye’ which has corrected the problem and her eyes are now fine. First picture on her thread is before her eye ops. Vax’d, and spayed. Merry is now in boarding kennels near Gatwick, Surrey.
Advert: Merry is a small Staffie with all the chitter chatter and licks of the Staffie. She is always happy to meet people and would enjoy mixing with children. She meets dogs well outside and walks with them ‘chilled’. Inside she is a little defensive and so would prefer to have her humans to herself. She may well build trust with a dog friend over time. Poor love has had such an unsettled time of late she just needs her very own family!
She is a rare black and brindle pedigree Staffie of small stature. She is kind, friendly and welcoming, so ready for love and games. You can’t help think this little cherub is going to find herself such a wonderful family and home, and become that true treasure; she is destined to be and is within our rescue.
“Please note this dog is currently in boarding kennels and is also available for foster until a ‘forever’ home is found”.
