I wonder if 40 Commandos in Taunton have a mascot and if not whether they'd like my mad/bad and crazy staffie. He'd love to wear the coat - couldn't guarantee he'd keep it clean. As for a mass petting, not sure he could stand that without leaping off the ground to give them an accidental "staffie black eye" bless 'im!

Awww although I would be really impressed if they took on a Chihuahua as a mascot I always like to see big burly men walking tiny dogs does something to melt my heart seeing it.

Aw Stormer looked a lovely old chap
A credit to the breed ...

Re: Beloved staffies

But chihuahuas don't get such a bad press to they? Bless their little cotton socks - they tend to stay out of trouble.

Re: Beloved staffies

Absolutely a credit to the breed.

In my limited experience men generally do seem to love staffies. Whenever I take my car for service/repair or anything the mechanics all love to make a fuss of mine.
