johnny boy68 11,726 Posted August 23, 2011 Report Share Posted August 23, 2011 How would the Dogo's bone structure,muscle mass,etc marry to the Greyhound? I think in a 1x litter you'd get a lot of heavy cumbersome dogs that would lose a little on catch ability........maybe if you bred to ultimatley get a 3/4 you could get a decent enough dog though.

Before you were even a glint in your old mans eye people were managing without bull x's and they still do. 1 Link to post

doga 50 Posted August 23, 2011 Report Share Posted August 23, 2011 never seen a dogo in the flesh but looking at videos and pics would say too big for here uk,same could be said of good quality amb they face massive boars in america but why use them here to produce lurchers,ive worked with pits staffs and amb but would not use the later even though asked by more than one to produce it. 1 Link to post

Tbh I think all lurchers that aint got bull in em shud be put sleep oh yeah sure some of people use or used to use pot "fillers" not pot lickers. that kind attitude better off hanging round shopping centers or carparks trying to impress 14 yr old girls with macho ways.

stabba 10,745 Posted August 23, 2011 Report Share Posted August 23, 2011 Quite simply ...the bull was/is used purely for its do or die attitude...not for its holding power as is the Dogo,s job..Proper bulls have been bred for hundreds of years solely for the die trying attitude that imo would not be in the dogo...There are way more show type Dogo,s than there are pure workers..and thats a fact not a half assed guess..to put it bluntly..the dogo x would produce way more quitters/jackers than a well bred half x bull would produce...why do you think not many pure bulls (apbt) are worked on hogs or big cats...because the little critters try to kill everything they come across..not just hold it...atb stabba 7 Link to post
