    If a running dog or lurcher had previous experience with big game it could definitely be used on big cats. Not likely for the kill (by themselves), but to harass and bay them/tree them. Looks like Doc's bull lurcher has seen some of this action. The dog just has to be smart enough to not blindly go in for the kill. In the americas 2-3 good dogs can bay just about any type of big cat. Hard as it is to imagine, even African lion were bayed successfully for many years.

Sounds like comic book stuff,but true. Love to get a dog made of something like that!

    Personally i think this x should be a good one, granted that the parents were good examples of their breed. The ridgeback brings several attributes into one dog that would otherwise require numerous other x's to aquire. Just off the top of my head I would list: gritt, size, speed,killing power, nose, loyalty, and stamina to name a few. Its tough to see whats so special about them until you've seen a good one work. I own a 3 yr old bitch who is dynamite at just about anything i ask her to do. She works cattle like a champ, is very loyal/protective of me &my family, hunts raccoon, bunnies, a
