I have a rescue dog, half American Staffordshire Terrier, quarter Lab, eighth Golden, and eighth Cocker Spaniel. One of the two greatest dogs I’ve ever had, the other being my Great Dane. Anyway, the AST cross is twelve and a half years old and still in good health. Great dog; nobody could do better.
I loved my AKC breed dogs, and miss them now they are gone. But I love my mutts just as much. They are good dogs too. I’m not an AKC supremacist. Lol.
