We present a staffordshire bullterrier nursery owned by Alla Solovyeva.

We got to know staffy in Vladimir region in 1994, when I brought from Moscow a bright-red-haired male Winchester Ruin. My husband, my daughter and I were crazy delighted over our baby (simply called Gun'ka). We loved him growing vigorous, strong, fearless, obedient and very smart. In short, by its first birthday all our friends wanted to acquire "a dog of the kind". Gunya meanwhile started to pay attention to the "fair sex", and soon we brought a bitch Gloria.

We got three broods from Winchester Ruin and Gloria, which have been hapily settled in families across the Vladimir region as home pets, here are photos of some of them:

And the only girl, Santy (owner Maslova), we managed to mate with Rynosera Olly Alexander. In the litter was a single puppy, a bitch Steffania, she remained at manufacturers till 2003 when she coupled with Golden Lotos Asterix. One of the descendants, Marilyn Manson, stands particularily out, and we pin our hopes on him...

Meantime, the breed was developing in Russia. Several high-class stud dogs and brood bitches were brought.

Finally in 2000 we managed (with help from L. Ikonnikova) to couple Gloria with Spellbound Angry Man, imported from Europe. This was a litter of four bitches: Flower, Fairy, France, Fifa. I reserved Flower to myself.

By age of 2 Flower has gained titles — 8 САС, CACIB, and became the Champion of Russia.

To mate her we have choosen a sire Norris, the Champion of Russia (sire Rynosera Olly Alexander dam Lucky Yana), having the blood of Spellbound Angry Man in inbreeding 2:3.

All the four puppies of this coupling, Chizhik-Pyzhik, Che Guevara, Chunga-Changa, Chipa Lina, conform to the breed standard and already take part in shows.

Another girl, Fairy, shines in agility contests and became a Champion of Krasnodar region!

In 2004 there were 13 staffbulls on the regional show in Murom! It makes pleasure.

In 2005 we have 3 couplings planned: France + ..., Flower + ...; Steffania + ... Sire candidates are not affirmed yet, we shall inform later. If you have any suggestions, call or write!
