Dear Sir/Madam, My name is Ruth Thomas and I am a 3rd year mature student on an Applied Animal Behavioural Science and Welfare degree programme with Greenwich University. I am carrying out a research dissertation where I will be investigating the public?s perception of the Staffordshire Bull Terrier and comparing it to that of canine professionals. This study will take an in-depth look at differences in opinion between the two groups and why they may exist. In particular, the role of the media and stereotyping will be investigated. This survey is anonymous and your details are hidden. Please feel free to answer honestly as your opinions are valuable and there are no wrong or right answers- it will only take two-three minutes to complete. Please copy and paste this link to a new browser and you will be directed to the questionnaire- https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/MKFPF6V Underneath each question there is a comments box for you to explain your answers-your comments are valuable and will be included in the results. I am extremely grateful to you for taking the time to read this email and I hope you will also take the time to fill out this questionnaire. If you would like a copy of the results then please reply to this email or via the questionnaire. Kind Regards Ruth Thomas- staffyperceptionstudy@yahoo.co.uk
