Cunners 3 Posted September 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2012 As requested I've added a couple of pics of the Presa cross Saluki Bull Grey.He's about 1 year in the pics and has added a few kg's in muscle since. Hopefully they will open; It seems some folks are getting off topic here. I repeat. I know he's not going to be better/faster than whats already out there. My question is will the Presa power and attitude bring something new to the table if put over a good bitch?? Cunners Quote Link to post
Millet 4,497 Posted September 13, 2012 Report Share Posted September 13, 2012 My question is will the Presa power and attitude bring something new to the table if put over a good bitch?? Cunners I very much doubt it would be classed a regular bunnie dog and the only thing that it may well excell at is killing thing's in a stop end after a dig if it was ever legal again to do so..

Ausnick 190 Posted September 13, 2012 Report Share Posted September 13, 2012 Ausnick I understand big dogs can be athletic and quick, Some sighthounds are huge and are capable of catching literally anything. Your JRT caught those rabbits by getting lucky, according to you and personally i think thats the only way an american bulldog would catch one aswell. Ive seen them run, theyre quick for their build yes but a healthy rabbit would always have a massive advantage, hence why i said it would need to get lucky. They may use them for large game but whatever theyre running and catching must be slower than rabbits. If i started a thread asking peoples advice on lamping with an american bulldog id be laughed off the site and not without valid reason. The thing im pointing out, is why do you think i shouldnt be allowed to voice my opinion? simply because im a newbie? If i wasnt at all qualified to comment i wouldnt but it matters not how long ive been in the game. Its just obvious. Ffs someones already pointed out that this guys AB's are particularly good dogs and the owner of them said theyd be left for dust in the open. mate you realise rabbits are the slowest quarry to run? (well over here anyway) they're just agile, you do know that yeah?? the land over here is big and vast, giving the bigger dogs more time to wind up. the person that started this topic said his dog "has started to take rabbits without any training or encouragement and is very game" and you're saying he's onto something because it's half presa, I'm sorry but I don't see anything special about it. and how do you know my dog got lucky? the holes are few and far between, when my jrt got onto the rabbits they all ran away from their holes and kept going and had no other options just to keep running and rabbits aren't made to run for very long... your inexperience is showing. Rabbits are NOT the slowest quarry where im from. They are quicker than an american bulldog! Simple, what is your problem with that? have you read this thread or just my replies? I cant keep repeating myself its getting silly now, youre ignoring the one person on here whos got the f****n dogs!And i didnt say hes onto something cos its half presa did i! Theres a lot of reasons why i said he COULD be onto something, as you stated, rabbits are incredibly agile, so if hes taking them without any encouragement at his weight theres one reason. presa canarios can be completely fearless with a ridiculously high pain threshold not dis similar to that of a pitbull, so theres another reason. There arent many dogs out there that can better the power of a presa, another reason. I was simply stating that this guys dog might not be as pointless as a lot of have suggested. Granted it should have to prove itself in the field before anyone in their right mind would pay to have it line their bitch, but that goes without saying. So anyway, what do you have against the Presa if you hold american bulldogs in such high regard? Youre not making sense mate, you can refer to my inexperience as many times as you like but it doesnt change any of the facts that we're talking about here. And as for your jrt, you said they seemed to run slower from him than they would a sighthound and turned too many times. Thats pure luck. You cant seriously tell me that he regularly catches good numbers mate, he just gets lucky once in a while You obviously don't understand what I'm trying to say. You said he's onto something special because the dogs half presa and it can catch the odd rabbit, so can american bulldogs. All I'm saying is that it's nothing special at all for any dog to catch the odd rabbit mate! and how's it pure luck if it happens every time? and I don't go after only rabbits as I find them boring, even though I've caught hundreds I rather foxes, cats, hares and bigger stuff. What other quarry do you have around there for them to be the fastest things where you are? A rabbit doesn't have the speed of a fox, hare or deer, so what else do you have where you are, rats?? And I'm mentioning your inexperience as you obviously haven't chased enough rabbits with different types of dogs to see the point I'm giving. And not all pitbulls are as you say, there's duds in every breed. I can't say I've ever seen a presa before but I know of pitbulls that would have less pain threshold as a little whippet... not everything turns out how they're bred for so the dog would have to do a hell of a lot more than catch a few rabbits to be bred from. youre really twisting my words now, i never said its special cos its a presa that catches rabbits. i simply stated that its traits and physical attributes COULD be a good addition to a lurcher? Surely you can agree with me on that? And if youre seriously telling me your jrt catches every rabbit he runs then youre either lying, the rabbits are slow as f**k in oz or the ones youre after all have mixi.I also never said that rabbits are the fastest quarry over here, i said theyre not the slowest. And i also never said that every single pitbull has a high pain threshold, thats why when i described the traits of a presa i kept using the words ''presa's can'', to stop you from telling me you know of 6 inch presa thats scared of mice and has no power. I could easily write a paragraph making out you said a load of shit that you didnt but what would be the point in that Well what's slower than a rabbit where you are? and you're twisting my words too, no dog could catch every rabbit they run, I'm just saying my jrt didn't catch them with luck, if that was the case any dog that catches a rabbit would catch it with luck yes? I'm not even gonna go on with this because this is doing my head in. i havent twisted anything, you clearly said it happens every time. And like i said earlier i think where i live the fox are slower than rabbits, not to mention rats and others that i wouldnt want to mention ok i have to admit I did over react. before I started hunting with running dogs I always thought hares were the slowest, then foxes and then rabbits were the fastest, but I can tell you no matter what area you're in the rabbits are slower than the foxes and the foxes are slower than the hares. In my country we have the exact same foxes, rabbits and hares as yous do over there so there's no difference. Quote Link to post
Millet 4,497 Posted September 13, 2012 Report Share Posted September 13, 2012 Foxes over here that i have killed before the ban are not faster than rabbit's..they may have more stamina and able to run longer than a rabbit but they are not faster..you may see the odd quick one but that is about it..

To the OP, the dog has done nothing to merit breeding from, its make up is nothing 99% of lurcher owners would want in a running dgs make up and by your own admission the dog ill do very little. The rescue homes are full of lurchers and i fear this would just add to the numbers and misery......... The op also asked if the Presa would bring something new to the table, at best it will be a very poor second to the bull blood out there....... Quote Link to post
