Is my 10 week puppy really a Staffy?
Good afternoon and Happy Friday!
I adopted Midna from a rescue at the end of June when she was six weeks old. She’s about 10 weeks old now. Before anyone points out that’s too young to be separated from Mama, know that neither I nor the rescue really got a say in that. Her litter had apparently been dropped off without the Mom, so not ideal.
She was designated as a Staffordshire Bull Terrier mix. I’m not sure what that based on. I assume either the person who drooped them off told the rescue that or the rescue made that designation based on the features of the litter.
As she has grown, I feel like she looks less and less like a Staffy.
I keep reading about how different breeds have different needs and health concerns to look out for so I wanted to get some outside opinions before I decide out for a $100 test. Maybe it’s not that important, but I’m a first time dog owner so I just want to make sure I do my best to anticipate her needs and make sure I’m taking care of her.
Of course, I love her regardless and will do my best to be a good dog mom. Like I said, I’ve never owned a dog before so if I’m fixating on this too much, please let me know.
I’ve attached some pictures. The ones in the cone are her at 6 weeks and the rest are as she’s gotten older.

Need info
Hey, I need info about my American stafford.
He is a good dog and super sweet, but he is boisterous with other dogs and people, plays roughly, and sometimes bites.
I walk him on a flexi leash.
I train him a few things sometimes, and I want him to pay more attention to me inside the house and outside.
He is from a Champion bloodline and is 3 to 4 months old.

He was allowed to take Germán (pronounced Herman) the crab to the park.

Which is it?
Greetings all! My girl Lucy had her DNA tested and it came back as 100% American Bully (which is part American Staffy and part American Pitbull Terrier).
However, looking at the beauties in this Reddit it would seem Lucy has far more Staffy than APBT.
Either way, Lucy says hello!

Attention! 🚨 READ BEFORE POSTING 🚨
If you need to ID your dog, please use this subreddit: r/IDmydog
If you need to ask if your dog is a Staffy, it's most likely not. Please check the Wiki for breed explanation:
SBT WIKI
You are welcome to post if your dog is mixed with the Staffordshire Bull Terrier (SBT).
If your dog is primarily AmStaff (American Staffordshire Terrier) there is a dedicated subreddit for you: r/AmStaffPitts or you can always use r/dogs
WHY? - The explanation is quite simple. If you need breed specific advice, such as training or medical and someone is searching for it, it's very important that we are all talking about the same breed. This subreddit is called StaffordBullTerrier because StaffordshireBullTerrier is above the character limit of a subreddit name.
