Thank you for your responses, it has been most helpful. In response to some comments, we bought Skye from a family when she was 10 months old as the family could not look after her. I am trying to contact the breeders but am having trouble with this, hence why I came to this forum for some answers. I appreciate everyone's time, the answers were really helpful. When I become less retarded with computers, I will put up some pic's :)

I have recently purchased a registered Stafford that we called Skye. She is a Blue. I had been looking at dogs for some time and as soon as I saw her I knew she was the dog for me. Since her purchase, I was soooooo excited that I wanted to learn everything about Stafford's that I could. It was then that I found out the health issues that may come with some Blue's. What I want to know is what I should be checking for to ensure she is healthy. I don't regret my purchase one bit, she is a beautiful dog and is great natured and she is now part of my family. I just want to make sure she has the best life I can give her and be prepared if she has issues. I am really confused by what I have read on Blue's. I don't know whether she is destined to have health issues or if only a small minority of Blue's have health issues. Any info or advice would be appreciated. Thanks
