Staffordshire Bull Terrier – Recommended Dog Pod SizeUpdated 5 days ago

Size Category: Medium

Weight Range: 11–17 kg

Build/Body Type: Stocky, muscular, broad-chested, compact height, and naturally curled resting posture. Can run warm and prefers padded, supportive resting spaces.


Most Staffordshire Bull Terriers fit very comfortably in the Original Travel Dog Pod.
Even with their muscular build, their compact height and curled-up posture make the Original a snug yet secure option — suitable for both short trips and longer drives.

Owners frequently report that their Staffys love the enclosed, den-like feel of the Original.
There is typically no need to size up unless your dog is unusually broad, heavier-set, or consistently prefers stretching out fully rather than curling.


🐶 Multi-Dog Capacity

Staffordshire Bull Terriers should not share a Pod.
Their solid build and natural need for their own space mean they require the full interior for comfort and mobility during travel.

Each Pod includes two built-in safety leashes, helpful if traveling with an additional small dog — but not intended for two Staffys in one Pod.


👀 Breed-Specific Tips

Staffys are affectionate, security-seeking dogs who value closeness and enclosed comfort.
The Pod’s padded walls and cocooned design support their instinct to nest, helping them feel calm and settled during travel.

Because Staffys tend to run warm, lighter bedding works best to maintain comfort without overheating.


💡 Alternative Options

Original Pod:
Ideal for the vast majority of Staffys — best fit for their compact size, curled resting posture, and love of enclosed comfort.

XL Pet Pod:
Only recommended if your Staffy is exceptionally broad, prefers full-body stretching, or will use the Pod for extended resting at home.
