Our 1^st Stafford was obtained in 1988, when she died at a young age we were distraught and immediately went out and purchased another dog.  This chap turned out to be Cowboy High Ball who was to be our introduction into the show world.  We commenced showing in 1991 and his first show he qualified for Crufts and from that moment in time, we where bitten by the show bug.  Charlie went on to win a RCC but he is well known for his smiling face on key rings, posters and greeting cards.

 When Charlie was about 2 years of age, we purchased another male Stafford. A red dog for my husband Trevor to show. This dog’s pedigree name was Jagsstaff Liquid Gold alias Jazz.  Jazz obtained his stud book number and did his fair share of winning but his main attribute was his wonderful temperament. Unfortunately Jazz fell ill very suddenly and died at the young age of 7 years.

 Keira (Pseudostaff Arrianna at Niatona) and Grace (Sparstaff Moonwalker) came to our home in 1992 and 1993 respectively; these two girls commenced our breeding under the Niatona affix. Both the girls where shown and whereas Grace had more success in the show ring, Keira excelled in the whelping box. 

 From these two very special ladies, we are a further 5 generations down the line from where we commenced. The offspring from these girls can be found throughout the site.

 When we decide to have a litter, it is always the foremost thought of keeping one of the pups to improve on what we already have.  All our breeding stock are health tested as per the guidelines of the KC/BVA and UK Breed Clubs that we are members of.
