11.01.2022 Not long to go now until our Open Show. We have a great entry of 34 made up of 14 dogs and 20 bitches. Our 2 rings are outside and the first 2 closest to the office on the Ranford Road side. The committee requests that no one sets up in close proximity to the gate of the first ring so we have room for prize tables etc. Set up can be in the second ring or outside of the bottom half of the first ring.... During phase 4 of COVID restrictions, there is no set-up the day before events i.e. Friday. Set up is more than welcome after 2.30pm on Saturday.

06.01.2022 During this time of uncertainty, the Staffordshire Bull Terrier Club of WA has been inundated with enquires and wishes to remind all prospective puppy buyers that a dog is for life, not a day. Whilst it may be convenient to introduce a new family member please remember that once you and your family return to normal routine it will be a difficult time for a puppy who is used to having constant attention to be left on their own. The Staffordshire Bull Terrier Club of WA are co...ncerned about the number of dogs which may end up in rescues or pounds, after this pandemic. If you have purchased a puppy and you are no longer able to care for it, please contact the breeder in the first instance. Many reputable breeders have paused breeding plans during this time. We ask that you take the time to research the breed only buy health tested puppies from ANKC Registered breeders. Now is the time to learn more about the breed, do your research on registered breeders, find out where you can do training with your future puppy etc. There are a number of Perth Staffordshire Bull Terrier Facebook Pages where you can ask questions, but you are also encouraged and welcome to ask our club for support and advice. We ask you to please be mindful of the following; - Please ask the breeder for proof of health testing, clear of HC & L2-HGA from both parents. - Be patient when seeking a puppy and do your research to find the right breeder. - Do NOT buy from back yard breeders (byb). - If you have any concerns regarding a breeders registration, please contact Dogs West to verify their membership: https://www.dogswest.com/dogswest/Home.htm - If you are requested to pay a deposit, do not pay this until the pups are well over 2 weeks of age and you can confirm this breeder is a registered breeder with the ANKC. Confirm what will happen to your deposit should the puppy no longer be available. - The expected price for a Pedigree Staffordshire Bull Terrier in Perth, Western Australia can vary, up to $3000. Colour and sex should NOT have any reflection on the price. - When purchasing a puppy, the breeder should supply you with medical records including vet checked, microchipping details and up to date vaccinations and worming.
