Do I need a licence to advertise puppies?
In England you need a dog breeding licence from your council if you breed three or more litters in 12 months or breed and sell dogs as a business, and Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland have their own schemes. Licensed breeders show their licence number and issuing council on every advert. Puppies must be at least eight weeks old before they go to new homes.

Buying a Staffordshire Bull Terrier puppy
Looking at Staffordshire Bull Terrier puppies for sale? Start by asking for both parents' DNA results for hereditary cataract (HC) and L-2-HGA, along with their eye certificates, and look up registered dogs on the RKC Health Test Results Finder. The RKC's Best Practice list for the breed also includes elbow grading and an eye check of the litter itself. The standard allows white, red, fawn, black, blue or brindle, alone or with white; a merle puppy cannot be registered with the RKC. See the puppies with their mother, and expect the breeder to ask about your household in return. Your puppy should be microchipped and on a database before it comes home, and you should get written notes on feeding and care. Do not hand over money for a puppy you have not seen in person.
Health tests to ask about
The RKC lists the Staffordshire Bull Terrier in Breed Watch Category 2, for breeds where exaggerated conformation causes visible health concerns that need closer monitoring. Show judges are asked to watch for signs of breathing difficulty, such as laboured, rapid or noisy breathing, and for misplaced canine teeth.
Under the RKC Health Standard, the Good Practice minimum for the breed is prioritising genetic diversity. Best Practice adds two DNA tests, elbow X-rays and eye examinations that include screening the litter. Hereditary cataract clouds the lens and can cause blindness, and in this breed it may be diagnosed as early as 8 to 12 weeks. L-2-HGA is a neurometabolic disorder whose signs, usually seen between six months and a year of age, can include seizures, an unsteady gait, tremors and muscle stiffness. Both are autosomal recessive, so a puppy is only affected if it inherits a copy of the mutation from each parent.
The RKC breed page also points to a breed club health scheme on the East Anglian SBT Club site, which asks for litter eye screening for PHPV from six weeks, before puppies leave. In February 2026 the RKC opened its Respiratory Function Grading scheme to the breed; at the time of writing it is not on the breed's Health Standard list.
