had enough of bull xs

[Bosun11 537]

Sorry to hear that tale about your dog Spud, even more sorry for the old boy and his Russell but I think Wilf's nailed it with his post.

 

Plenty of Lurchers can be hell on other dogs and there is sommat about none hunting dogs that can really rub 'em up the wrong way, (even if they work alongside many other breeds throughout their working life but then thats the difference .. work!) A good strong, hard grafted bull bred dog can do some damage, especially if your not in there fast. You did what you did, for your reasons and.. it's probably for the best.

 

Best of luck with your next charge.

Sorry to hear that mate, i have been in a similar situation before myself, not great, but i wont run my dogs now anywhere near public places/footpaths etc, i had a collie whippet greyhound dog years ago, he was a heller with strange dogs, got me into a fair bit of bother on nuemorous occasions, so just saying its not always the bull blooded dogs, but of course when it does kick off with them, its always that little 'worse' to say the least, cheers.

Your dog your decision..who knows maybe tomorrow you,ll regret it..but then again maybe you wont...atb stabba

ill always regret it stabba but thats why the game is in this state and people breeding of crap bull xs ill never breed of a dog with any flaws in it and it must be hard worker and over the age of 7. the lads these days breed of 2 yr olds with 1 season behind it just for the coin i look at the worker not the breeding

obvious the true bull x aint for you or it wouldnt have happened

[WILF 46,675]

Just to clear to the op, I wasn't trying to dig you out at all, just saying that's how I see it......unfortunately you don't know until the mistake happens.

You can only recognise the signs in certain animals when you have seen it before.

A hard dog needs a hard owner? Bullshit I say a dog should be brought up the right way to respect it's owner

And that's not a dig at you spud ;-) think what the lads are saying is the russle started it so your dog wasn't in the wrong but as been said it's your choice mate

[stabba 10,745]

Bull x,s should be no more prone to this incident than any other lurcher/running dog type imo. Its all about training and tuning in with your dog thats all..no special formula just that. Why should bull x,s be ruled with an iron fist? Are they summat special as a breed type..i think not..they are just the same as any breed imo..the only difference maybe is the power of jaw they yield..atb stabba
