what to breed to

[taz100 0]

To the bloke that started this topic i would listen to all the above comments,and i hope you take heed and dont consider this cross its a complete waste of time buy a bitch in from a decent bloodline buck,parkes,gould something on those lines and start something from there but please please dont breed your dog to it because its a loyal companion and a good house dog and sniffs at the entrance to a few rabbit holes,then sell these pups on as coming from 100% working stock and dilute an already diluted gene pool with dogs that simply are not up to the task there is enough folk out there already doing that,i wish you well in finding a bitch and hope you make the right choice.

How old is your friends bitch ?? And you could still get a young bitch pup now from a decent bloodline and breed it to your border/lakeland if she proves worthy in 2 or 3 years your dog will still be fine to put to stud then i still wouldnt bother will a stafford cross you may have seen some decent workers but ive not seen decent earth dogs with that much bull blood in them the bull/russells you saw they surley were not 1st cross and if they were they have thrown to the russell side,if you mated your dog to a stafford bitch you may end up with a pup that grows up to large to enter an earth.
