The only issue I see here is that buddy gets too distracted by toys haha I.e. When he knocked the ball out of that kids hand and decided to go for a run with it lol

Haha that was so funny Buddy was 100m down the beach before the kid even knew what was happening. Was so funny until we realised we had the chase him down!

Gorgeous indeed! Love a blue staffy. They can get a bad wrap but every staffy I’ve ever interacted with has been lovely (sometimes they even came across as timid!) So much of it is about the owner.

They were so shit scared of the surf until I got hold of them!!!!!

Dragged them in turn by turn, and now they bolt straight into the surf as soon as they get out of the van!!!!!

They love it!!!!!

Yeah, love the staffies! Very cute!

I have mates who have own them, they’re so playful lol but such nuggets sometimes haha one mate has timber flooring and his staffy is ridiculously funny to watch when she runs inside haha

The two labs I now have are a change from my last dogs which were a Maltese x shitzu and a Schnauzer. Whilst I did love them I think I prefer the big dogs, especially when playing with them because u can rough them up a bit more lol

Drc,  when the weather warms up we’ll have to take them back to the beach and get a video of them running around to post up but also of buddy using a towel to dry off haha

To explain the towel situation, it was the first time we had taken them to the beach.  Usually after washing them, they get dried off with their own towels. When we took them to the beach and they went for a swim, buddy came running back up and dived straight into one of our towels laying on the beach that we had left to dry off, he was rolling all over it trying to dry himself off but at the same time making a complete mess of the towel and throwing sand everywhere . Thankfully, we didn’t have to use that one to dry ourselves off haha

yeh Marlo is the biggest sook of a dog! He got rushed by some small white fluffy dog awhile back and tried to hide behind my legs :p and if he hears loud noises outside he goes and hides under the desk.

He’s one of those dogs that gets giddy with excitement every time he meets anyone and plays really well with other dogs and children but a lot of people are cautious of him cos of his breed.

Awesome poochies RPS & Air!!!!

Both Labs and Staffs are hard to beat. Never seen a bad dog from either breed.

A couple of pics of Yuki (Boxer) & Deek (Husky), when they were pups!!!!!

Hahaha awesome!

LOVE both Boxers and Huskies. We used to have a dark brindle Boxer when I was a kid. Such an awesome dog. I reckon the fawn Boxers are the best though. Love them.

We were set to get a husky before we were put on to the Kelpie breeder we got Syd from.
