Definitely. Staffordshires are smaller dogs and can be registered through the American Kennel Club. Owners that I know of don't encourage them to fight in the pit or keep them on chains and muzzles. I have a Staffie and he is the most loyal and affectionate dog who has ever owned me.

The difference between Pits and American Staffordshire Terriers is a difficult one. Even breeders can't agree. The main difference is the bloodline. Amstaffs are show dogs and dog fighters won't use dogs with Amstaff blood. As time progresses there will be more of a difference. Many are duel registered as Amstaffs with the AKC and Pits with the UKC.

Staffie is a smaller dog. APBT can be as haevy as 100lb. Mine is 95. Heads are a bit different. Both are great dogs.
