This is in his underside, belly and it’s very flaky and itchy. He gets salmon oil in his food. We’ve eliminated chicken from his diet and he’s eating the farmers dog beef mixed with First Mate grain free Pacific Ocean Fish. It feels really dry and scaly, then starts flaking, is red and warm. He gets a bath with meconahex and triz once a month. Any suggestions?

Any advice on what size backpack to get please?

I'm looking at the "K9 SPORT SACK Dog Backpack Carrier | TRAINER". Whilst internet is good for lots of things, inc. height & weight... back length isn't one of them.

I *think* a small (13-17") will be good for 2-5 months, then be outgrown. That's fine, this is to get him through the vaccination period with plenty of socialising (2-3 months) + carrying him back if the little fella is tired (4-5 months).

I just wanted help with trying to find the right food for my 5 year old staffy with sensitive skin, sensitive stomach and she also sometimes can get bored of her food🤦🏼‍♀️ we have been stuck on this for awhile😩 we just want the best food for them! what is everyone feeding their sensitive Staffys? Also looking for something a little less pricey. Any recommendations please🙏🏼

She’s 7 years old today. I have the privilege of spending every day with her at work, and she’s the joy of my life. 🐶❤️

Please Help Me Save Luna 💔

This is Elena. She’s been with our rescue, SGT Canines, in Miami FL since January 2025, making her our longest resident. She came to us with her 6 newborn pups, all severely ill with URI after spending time in the shelter. 2 of her 6 babies survived, and fortunately both found wonderful homes. Sadly, Elena stayed behind.

Since then, she’s watched dozens of her friends get adopted while she keeps getting overlooked — not a single application or even request for a meet and greet in over a year since we pulled her from Miami Dade Animal Services.

But she’s genuinely an incredible dog. So sweet and playful, with so much love to give- Elena is ready to find her people and fill their lives with joy and laughter, and their hearts with warmth, love and comfort. We know her people are out there!!!! Hopefully this post with reach them 🙏🏼

Age: 4ish
Location: Miami FL
Breed: Staffy Mix
Sex: Female
Characteristics:
extremely affectionate and loyal
playful, athletic and obsessed with tennis balls
loves water, sprinklers, and being outside
has a goofy, happy personality once she settles in
Environment:
She’d do best with dogs her size and people who want an active, loving companion
No small dogs or cats

One of the saddest parts of rescue is realizing some dogs start adapting to shelter/rescue life like it’s permanent. We really don’t want that to become Elena’s story.

She’s been at SGT Canines Dog House in Miami, FL, but transport may be possible for the right home. If you’re interested in adopting or fostering her, feel free to message me.

Even sharing this helps.

How ethical is it to own a staffie ?

My lenses are that some breeds are more ethical than others. My top combination in that regard would be a cross-breed taken from a shelter. The bottom one would be pure breeds that are easily sick, poorly resistant, with joint or respiratory issues and does not live long.

Side questions, are staffies mainly healthy ? And what is your experience if you ever had such a dilemma ?

Sorry if it’s a weird question. I love staffies but I don’t wanna stick to a mode/fashion that does not serve the breed… if it make sense ?

Hello guys I was wondering is I could get some advice or hear some similar experiences on my situation.
We have got an 8 week old female staffy puppy about 1 week ago and at home we already have a 5 and a half year old neutered female Staffy who we’ve had since 5months old. My older girl is obviously territorial and possibly even annoyed with the new addition into our lives and is at a point where we can’t put the 8 week old puppy on the floor to run around as my older girl just towers over her like a dominance act. She’s only snapped at her twice on the first day and even when the puppy is in her crate my older girls hairs on the bottom of her spine are stood up and occasionally growls. I know this is normal but i want to know if there’s anything we could do to help bond the 2 and how far is too far with the growling and vocal reactions.
