About the development of the breed
Dogs were taken to America, where the sport of dog-fighting was popular in the 1800's. Today the American version is said to be less aggressive than the English, though they look a little like a pit bull terrier.

Staffords love people! They make loyal pets. Do we love people? Or do we snarl and bite others? The Bible says, "Love God with all your heart, and your neighbour as yourself." Mark 12 verse 31
