We adopted an American Staffordshire from the pound and she was a great dog. Initially she had some separation anxiety due to her previous living conditions but once we were over that she was really well behaved. She was not friendly to other dogs so we never took her to the dog park but she was excellent around all people.
Like any dog they need a lot of training. Pit bulls and AmStaffs have an instinct that ignores their pain receptors allowing them to fight. Unfortunately that aspect combined with their strong jaws result in bad injuries when not trained or when neglected.
I have been bitten more times by my puggle than I ever was by the Staffy. Ours passed away last year to cancer after 13 years.
