That doggie is adorable! And just a baby, too.
Staffordshire Terrierss are no more dangerous than Jack Russell Terriers.
Most dogs of any breed can be reared well and become fine dogs, or reared poorly and be viscious, neurotic, or depressed. It's all up to you. Be sure to always be the pack leader, and provide plenty of exercise, moderate amounts of heathy food, and judicious amounts of affection and attention.
'nuff said!

No dog is more or less dangerous. pit bulls and staffy's are commonly bred and trained to fight so they have a bad reputation. Its dependent on the way you train it. If the dog you are about to adopt has issues than it can be a dangerous dog if you dont know how to train it correctly not having anything to do with the breed. My dog is 130lbs bullmastiff and she is very smart and docile. Some breeds may be more stubborn than others but i wouldnt say one breed to be more dangerous than another. Yes a small little toy dog im sure many people will say arent dangerous but these are the dogs that you always see that dont listen to thier owners and will bark and bite more often than a larger dog. Not saying that some people have these little dogs that are sweet and obiedient but you see more of these dogs acting out than the larger ones cause a lot of owners feel they are so small that they dont seem to be a threat to anyone so they let them misbehave. So the breed isnt dangerous it the way you train it.

If you make sure to properly train it, take good care of it, and don't abuse it, than you should not have a problem with agression.
It sounds to me like you need to do more research on the breed and dogs in general before you adopt.

Any breed of dog is what you make it- the more effort and socialisation you give the dog the better pet it becomes. If you are unsure of the breed reseach it or talk to your local kennel club/ vetinarian.

No they are not. why not reaserch the breed before you adopt one. that way you will know if it is a good breed for you.
