The only reason they are homed is because the previous junkie owner(s) couldnt take care of it. Same goes for most staffies.
I see no reason why anyone would want a dog that needs to be kept locked away from any other person or dog.

Dennis has been in the Kennel almost a year. The chap said the black ones are always the last to be rehomed so we felt more sorry for him. Goldie hasn't been there that long so i know he will get picked soon.

I was told this about the black ones. They are least popular. I'm surprised. I like the black ones.

Goldie is no name for a male dog. It'd end up licking other male dogs' arses.

Good choice, didn't want you to end up with a dog who had been gang raped by other dogs.

Exactly why they wont be much trouble being left in the house all day,walk them in the morning and when you get home from work and there will be no problems. I think its a misconception that they shouldnt be left at home all day, they only shouldnt be left at home if they then sit around all evening as well

My girlfriend has a Beagle, it lives with her parents at the minute and i call her Jeremy as well, she even responds to it, but then my girlfriend calls her all sorts of variations of her name so is probably used to the tone of our voices when we are calling her

She is quite happy to go to sleep but i wouldnt say she's lazy, much the opposite, if shes bored she bounds around wanting us to take her for a walk, but after a walk she just goes to sleep
Absolutely brilliant dogs, i wouldnt mind one a mixture between your sisters puppy and ours
