Staffordshire Bull terriers are an English breed and are smaller. Yes, they were ratters and also nanny dogs for families, and folks used to watch them kill numbers of rats for sport. They are completely different from the American Staffordshire Terrier (no bull)
You know, I got to looking at the heights of each breed and our has to be the Staffordshire Bull Terrier instead of the Am Staff because she is way shorter than the Am Staff and more petite built, no more than 14 inches at the shoulder. I really never paid attention to the height difference when we got her.
Yes, I should have added that I can tell by her funny face she is DEFINITELY a staffordshire bull terrier, although not a show- type one, but a rare breed in the U.S. nonetheless.
Here is one of mine--eating a bone under silkie supervision--she's fairly well bred but on the large side for a Staffy --not a good pic but it was there on my uploads already so I didn't have to search for one LOL
