Marvin, was our first Stafford,
we were looking for a 'small' dog to add to our family, we had 2 German Shepherds and felt
that another dog would be nice, I wanted to enter some shows and have some fun. That is how it started, when we first saw Marvin at 3 weeks old, I was smitten, he is now nearly 15 years old. Marvin (Den's Duke of Eirl) is out of Miss Miami Vice by Britstaff Red-Rum bred by Mr R Hines & Mrs S Burr.
I spent many happy days going to various open shows and exemption shows, he
did quite well at exemption &
open shows
Marvin competed in the last obedience show held by the Western Staffordshire Bull Terrier Society and won the 'Pre-Beginners ' class beating Tammy!
Unfortunately Marvin has arthritis in both elbows,
but until recently he still enjoys his yearly stint in the Agility demonstrations at both
the East Midlands & East Anglian Staffordshire Bull Terrier Clubs fundays.
To his dog, every man is Napoleon; hence the constant popularity of dogs
