Thank you for affording me your precious time to assess your stock and give my opinion based upon the Kennel Club guidelines and my interpretation of it.
Overall quality is disappointing, we are losing the width and depth of the Stafford, this is an issue we as custodians of the breed must address when breeding and assessing this amazing dog.
Once we lose the breed type we lose the Stafford.
However I was very pleased with my top awards.
