IROQ Amstaffs Breeding for Temperament, Power, and Grace

ABOUT US

Welcome to Marion and Steve Green’s Iroq Amstaffs! Iroq Amstaffs was established in 2001, we are a small kennel located in the Southern suburbs of Perth, WA. We have spent many years researching pedigrees, going over dogs, talking, and learning from people we respect in and outside of our breed. We raise our litters as though they were our own children and put in the same effort finding them loving forever homes.

We believe in betterment of the breed, and as such health test all dogs that are to be used in our breed program; we have the hip and elbow results for every Amstaff used since 2001. Attaxia testing has been completed to all dogs within our breed program. Marion’s background as an orthopaedic specialist nurse has been invaluable in understanding health test results.

We strive to put puppies on this planet that we believe are of correct type, of good temperament, and with, power and grace. In short, fine examples of the breed.

We support our breed and have been active committee members of the American Staffordshire Terrier Club of Western Australia for over a decade. We happily share knowledge with those that are interested; and socialise our dogs so they will become ambassadors for the breed and show our dedication. The time and money that we invest in the love of our dogs isn’t a true measure of how we feel; and the price we charge for our puppies is never profit, but an investment into the next generation of Amstaffs.

Our plan is not for the next generation but for future generations; with specific goals of producing superior Amstaffs. We have studied the Amstaff breed thoroughly, understanding strengths and weaknesses; and combined with good breeding practices and sound genetic principles will achieve our goals.

 Families purchasing their forever puppy from us will be supported throughout the pups life; we do not impose ourselves on the relationship between you and the newest member of your family; but are there for you if you need tips on raising your puppy. This starts with a four week in-house puppy pre-school and information booklet.
