Bosco and his big head!

I first saw Bosco the Staffordshire Bull terrier and I could only stare at his extremely large head! A beautiful brindle coloured dog, he is like a slab of beef. You just have to slap (In a nice way!) Staffies like Bosco. They are so solid and powerful, but very easy going and very gentle to people.

Anyway the dog can't be perfect, like there is no perfect human being, but Bosco is 95% perfect except for one thing! Well two actually and they hang down at the back of him! Yes my old touchy subject of non-breeding dogs not being spayed. Bosco has had at least two scraps a day because of it and as a young dog he oozes hormones and attitude when other dogs approach and many of them have a go at him!

Today I have had him in Sutton Park and trained him around a couple of dogs where he puffed up and had a go. Using a long line I corrected him before he went into fight mode and made him be submissive near the other dogs! After that and draining some energy, we walked with Tammy and Foley the Springer and met other dogs and he was fine! But the danglies will always rear there ugly head and he is a ticking time-bomb with either himself or another dog or someone who tries to stop them; getting hurt! My advice CASTRATE him now! No question!
