ABOUT: AMERICAN STAFFORDSHIRE TERRIER DOG BREED
The American Staffordshire Terrier, also known as the Amstaff, is a medium sized, muscular breed known for its loyalty and courage. Developed in the United States, they are intelligent and affectionate dogs, making them great family companions. With a distinctive short coat and strong build, American Staffordshire Terriers are often misunderstood due to their past as fighting dogs, but they are actually loving and playful pets when raised in a nurturing environment. They thrive on human interaction and are eager to please their owners.
The Thai Ridgeback is a rare and ancient breed originating in Thailand, known for their distinctive ridge of hair running along their back in the opposite direction of their coat. These medium sized, muscular dogs are independent, loyal, and protective, making them excellent guard dogs. With a history dating back over 400 years, Thai Ridgebacks have a strong prey drive, high energy levels, and require firm handling and early socialization to thrive as loving family pets.
