Welcome to the Dazzlnstaff website!

My name is Elaina, I have grown up riding and competing horses from a early age up to State and National Level. After a rather bad fall trying a horse to purchase in early 2000 I decided to take a break from riding and give Agility a go. After looking into what sort of breed would not only suit me, my family and get on well with our Bull Terriers, I decided that a Stafford would be the way to go!

My first Stafford came into my life in July 2000. As my first Stafford, Chili (Asmastaff Wonder) was destined for the Agility/Obedience rings, but whilst waiting for her to 'come of age' I decided to dabble in the showing side of the dog world. I was hooked and the rest (as they say) is history!

The Dazzlnstaff prefix was registered with the RNSWCC in late 2000.

In late 2002 I decided to breed my first litter from Asmastaff Wonder. Chili was mated to Neil and Sharon Brook's (Brookshire Staffords) boy Ch Willspride Cockney Rebel, this mating resulted in a lovely litter of 7 puppies. I kept one from this litter, Teddy (Dazzlnstaff Blacksambuca CCD). Teddy was shown as a Baby Puppy, but he did not like showing and I decided on a career in Obedience and Agility with him instead.

In 2004 tragedy struck when Chili passed away unexpectedly. I was devastated and took a break from the dog activities for a while.

After a break from the dog activites I decided that it was a waste to let Teddy not put his obedience training into action. A new title was introduced in July 2006 and I decided that this would be a good first step into obedience trials. After a short campaign Teddy obtained his CCD title with ease in September 2006!

Teddy is the 2nd Stafford in Australia and the 1st Stafford in NSW to obtain the CCD title! (confirmed by DogsNSW).

June 2007 saw in the arrival of our second litter to proud parents Ch Ourgang Don't Stop Me Now and Berlstock Forever Dazzln. I kept the sole girl, a cheeky red pup that had her call and show name well before she was even born! Pink has exceeded my expectations in the ring.

If you see us out and about, please come up and introduce yourself, my dogs are always up for cuddles, and I like meeting fellow breed enthusiasts.

Thank you for taking the time to visit my site!
