Welcome to the page of our Staffordshire bull terrier kennel.
Although Terrystaff kennel was founded in autumn 2012, I have devoted my love to the Staffordshire bull terrier breed since August 2009 when I got my first of the breed, male Hermes Eilatan.
In the beginning I didn’t plan to get in to breeding or even to take part in exhibitions for that matter. We wanted a dog with pedigree, purebred, healthy and born to quality parents. But he was supposed to remain a pet, a companion, company on walks in the forest.…
But we were lucky in our choice and Hermes grew more and more handsome by the day. So with time I decided to venture into exhibitions, something I had not tried before. And the little puppy grew into a beautiful and exceptional dog, who is today the proud owner of several trophies and is used for further breeding.
Together with a passion for exhibitions emerged an interest in the breed itself and I spent days studying family trees, books and other literature on the study of dogs. And slowly we began to search for a bitch which would complete our team. ‘The one’ was born in May 2011 in the Polish kennel, Bullparaben.
Just like with Hermes it was love at first sight with Cora, and just like with Hermes she surpassed all my expectations. Her mesmerizing expression and tender yet ever lively character fills me with joy each day, as do her outstanding exhibition results, which I hadn’t even hoped for.
Once I had gained the necessary experience and acquainted myself even further with the breed I decided to go into breeding. My aim may not be modest, but it’s clear – I want to breed dogs who live up to the standard set by the breed, and though we meet with Staffordshire’s of all kinds, our principal concern remains quality breeding. That’s a principal I intend to hold onto for life.
Great thanks go to a wonderful breeder, who remains my friend to this day, and who is ever willing to give advice – Iva Zuranová from the kennel Eilatan.
And for his outstanding partner Cora many thanks also go to Polish breeders Marta and Kazia of Bullparaben kennel.
Our website has been made to measure to my great satisfaction by Lucie Dušková. My best compliments go to her for her patience with my requests.
And finally I‘d like to thank Hanka Maredová of the kennel Boraderam for her excellent photographs.
