So my pup is 6 months old and stands at 35cm. Is that a good size for him? Also, his face looks quite thin – is that normal, please?

    Do you have his KC papers? Anyway, crossbreed or not, he’s still a lovely-looking dog, but next time, if you want to be sure you’re getting a pedigree, remember to ask for the Kennel Club registration numbers for both parents and then check with the Kennel Club to make sure they’re registered.

    No, sorry, but it’s the best photo I’ve got of him. Is he a Staffy?

    Yes, this one definitely looks more like one.

    In your 2nd photo, yeah, I'd say it's a Staffie.

    The ears look like rose ears, and the eyes and build seem about right.

    But with the black puppy in the 1st photo, did you see the parents when you bought it?

    Have you got any more photos of your dog? Because unfortunately your dog doesn't look like a pure Staffie :-(

    Hi,

    It’s true, he doesn’t really look much like a Staffie. It’s probably the floppy ears that give that impression. Plus, he’s got a long snout.

    Mind you, 6 months is still very young; your dog hasn’t finished growing yet. He’ll still grow a bit taller and, more importantly, he’ll fill out.

    Here’s a photo of my Staffie at 6 months

    And now at 18 months

    He's not a pedigree! Have a look at staffies online.

    So, is it actually possible to fool the Kennel Club, and how can you tell if a dog is a proper pedigree?
