Bullx Converts??

[C Hall 552]

Love the half x bulls but the best allrounders Ive used for the type of hunting I prefer are lurchers with about a quarter bull and other breeds in the mix Guess I would call myself a bull x fan not a convert though

paulus.i think you are right about to much bull in some cases .this cross is ideal for strenghtening weak lurcher strains.i think in a hailf cross bull you may well get some problems.but it would not occur in every case .quarter bull to quarter collie to hailf greyhound ;quarter bull to quarter saluki hailf greyhound .something on those lines would give you the build and restrengthining needed;to be honest i have not seen any first x bull xg run so i couldnt say if some lack the required speed.it would be intresting to hear from owners of this cross brains stamina speed problems etc

how many times have you herd or read on here of a heavily saturated bull x running into something verses how many collie crosses do you read or hear of doing the same thing you also need to add whippet to your mentioned crosses to make up for whats lacking in the mix

What will the whippet add? Yapping or shortness of breath? :laugh:

Even thinner coat

 

whippets have qualities that no other breed can bring to the mix

A very silly statment

 

Working whippets have or did have a lot to offer the lurcher, especially the whippets that were around 20 plus year ago

Most of the bull x's you get out with kranky have whippet in there breeding and baw I'd totally agree with you I'd prefer better jackets on them which is why I can see the benifit of using Wheaton over bull but I'm happy with mine.

yes you might be right as i had them in my yard for 5 seasons so you would know nobber how many good ones you seen

[C Hall 552]

Troter58 just because you had them around for 5 seasons does not mean you had good animals around you

Sorry but you can't knock a x on poor dogs and a DVD,yes there are heavy bred dogs only good enough to catch quick quarry out of a motor and useful round a hole but there's a damn sight more so much better than that out there doing the job season after season.

Don't mind him he's totally kennel blind I keep threatening to buy him a collie x salxwhip its his worst nightmare,secretly he's desperate for a bull x but after all the agg he dishes out about them he knows hell get it back in skipfulls!!!

HM, I was/am a bull cross convert, about 20 years ago when I seen first hand what a good one is capable of... Find the 'right' type, and they'll open your eyes.

If you need any more information, drop me a pm.

I like a good bull/greyound. I was running a half x bitch with s 3/8 5/8 dog and they were a good team. Ive seen a few start fitting and they can overheat quickly. Apart from that brilliant dogs.

I do apologise. Could you possibly get one of these 20 year old whippets round to line Westy76's bitch?
