I'm Terri C., the breeder behind Ali-Aj located in Anza, CA. Breeding American Staffordshire Terriers is a passion of mine. I can't see myself doing anything else. My dogs are bred for versatility, temperament, health, and adherence to the AKC standard. I do everything I can to ensure the puppies have everything they need to develop into healthy and happy dogs.
Q. & A. with Terri
Why did you start breeding?
As a dog lover fresh out of college and newly married in 1973, I happened upon a dog show. I knew immediately the sport was for me. For 3 years I studied and learned as much as I could. I then purchased a Shih Tzu and began to show and later breed. I successfully showed several breeds and got my first AST. I happened upon a dog show in 1974 and immediately knew it was the sport for me.
What makes your program special?
By finding wonderful homes for my dogs and having many many overjoyed satisfied customers who keep in touch throughout the dog's life.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and guardian homes.
