WreckitWhippet Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 If it was an Amstaff then the colour would be a seal There is obvious shading over the muzzle, down the chest etc where you would normally see the tan points. So would he still be a seal ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

melzawelza Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 uggghhh god the look of cropped ears gives me the heebie jeebies. Not sure what i'd call the colour, it's lovely. That's not what a true APBT should look like though, much too chunky. nice looking dog anyways. Good to see more people with an opinion on what an APBT should look like... Nice to know the RSPCA and Councils have backup... uggghhh god the look of cropped ears gives me the heebie jeebies. Not sure what i'd call the colour, it's lovely. That's not what a true APBT should look like though, much too chunky. nice looking dog anyways. You have a TRUE APBT?? You know what they look like??? hahahaha,,,a true APBT can look like anything,,,,much like a true rotty or terrier.. Can you tell me what a true ABPT looks like....I need to know Woooahh..... calm down. No, the RSPCA don't have a supporter, I happen to be very vocal about my love for pitties. My comment was because it looks much more like an AM staff than an APBT. APBT have always been smaller and finer (less chunky) than the AM staffs. I'm aware that there is no official breed standard and that there is great variation, but TO ME that dog looks much more like an AM staff than a APBT. No need to get your knickers in a twist and reply twice to the same post attacking me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N@Dog Posted January 20, 2010 Author Share Posted January 20, 2010 is it a APBT or a CC ? APBT - this is his page: Diablo yep thats him ;) I must be a bad person cause I love the look of his ears Not that I would ever do it or condone it, but gosh he is so beautiful and I think his cropped ears just enhance his handsome face. Ohh and gorgeous colour too i dont mind it, it does look good one some dogs, like doberman pinchners and few others but, if ear cropping were legal here in AUS and i could get it done to my Amstaff (if i had one, this is a hypothetic situation) i probley wouldnt, the history (correct me if im wrong :S ) is they cropped them so other dogs in the fighting ring could not bight them off (causing the dog pain and probley loose) as this is no longer a problem i dont see how there is much pointm other than tradition and show ring reason's, i dont see why people should crop Amstaff and APBT ears, each to there own i guess, BUT some do look gourgeous like this guy, no doubt...... his a stunner!

N@Dog Posted January 20, 2010 Author Share Posted January 20, 2010 (edited) oh as SBT said, Dane's as well, Dobes and Danes Definetly have to have cropped ears for that great tradition look (once again each to there own) Edited January 20, 2010 by N@Dog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SmoothieGirl Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 Saw two Staffies yesterday, one was black with a shadow of brindle and the other was a dark blue with light brindle. The blue and brindle was most unusual but very interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cazstaff Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 Same colour as my sons Amstaff and he is Seal. First impression is he's black but in sunlight or strong light you can see the dark red/liver colour. He was only a bubby here, now there's some funky ears for you Approx 2 years, still has the one up and one down ears Caz :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nekhbet Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 N@Dog you can import cropped dogs, what age you can import depending on the country, paperwork, quarentine etc so speak to Customs/AQIS. Most cropping is done at 8-12 weeks of age when the ear is strong enough to hold the shape (with some help) there is more to cropping then just whacking off an ear. Bit of an art and I dont have an issue with it. and im taking it a prong is that massive collar thing that red APBT (the one i put up) is wearing? it is quit huge, id never put on on my dog Oh there;s nothing wrong with prongs, it just seems to be a fashion to put a hideously oversized one around your pitbulls neck ... first it was truck chains and padlocks now this why do some owners have to be such bogans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
