Borat 8 Posted September 20, 2010 Report Share Posted September 20, 2010 Okay, dont shoot me down here in flames.. But what is the difference between a Alaunt and some Ban dogs ?? As a guy I knew in the Scottish borders a few years ago had a litter of "Plummber Alaunts".. They did'nt sell, but when advertised as Bandogs they went ? Can someone expand my horizans ? 1 Quote Link to post

lietome 138 Posted September 20, 2010 Report Share Posted September 20, 2010 Its apparent that even the owners of these dogs know that the addition of mastiff to a bull/grey was a bad idea, as they always breed it out again! The ONLY thing gained was bulk! but what was lost, was speed, agility and importantly for me, jaw power. look up bite force tests of different breeds the mastiff came out way above the bull terrier anyway in some cases they are 75% bull x grey Quote Link to post

kevp 0 Posted September 20, 2010 Report Share Posted September 20, 2010 (edited) Its apparent that even the owners of these dogs know that the addition of mastiff to a bull/grey was a bad idea, as they always breed it out again! The ONLY thing gained was bulk! but what was lost, was speed, agility and importantly for me, jaw power. The mastiff brought quality of bone...in time the speed and agility has been put back.There is no lack of jaw power only someone who has not seen a good Alaunt would say that....But saying that my bullx bitch is allot faster than my alaunt thats why i have her...not for everyone but alot of fun and make there owner's happy. Im not going to say there beter than this and that because there are good and bad in all type's... there alot better mastiff type than we see waltzing round the show ring today so thats got to be a good thing. you say 'only someone who has not seen a good alaunt would say that there is a lack of jaw power'' I say bollocks, only someone who does nothing more testing than the odd fox would say that!! Any little old mutt can slay foxes feckin easy. bulls have stronger jaws than mastiffs, by adding mastiff you are weakening the jaw even though it looks like a superficially stronger animal. so what was the reason to add the mastiff? ''quality of bone'' you say? what was wrong with a bull greys bone before adding the mastiff? nothing Id say! You 'think' they have better quality of bone simply because they have thicker legs? but in reality their bulk is nothing but a hinderance. but il agree, they ARE a better type than the pure mastiffs at ringside today, however there will be a reason why the running mastiff became extinct in the first place wont there? perhaps its because there were better dogs to hand? when i read the website for them its to do with not aloud to use to much APBT would make them illegal Edited September 20, 2010 by kevp Quote Link to post
