redpat1 225 Posted May 16, 2013 Report Share Posted May 16, 2013 I was out mooching with the dogs and I bumped in to a fella with a full American bull and even though I have seen lots of Staffies and the like this was the first American Bull I have seen in the flesh. I noticed how well muscled he was and was surprised by his length of leg so I started wondering if they would make a decent lurcher or if anyone has already used one either has a lurcher X or just as a pure bull? I know they make excellent guard dogs but I am unsure if they have any attributes useful for hunting in the field, just to satisfy my own curiosity really! Pat Quote Link to post
j1985 1,984 Posted May 16, 2013 Report Share Posted May 16, 2013 (edited) If your taking about American Bulldogs then its been tried before, hit and miss!! But I'd say the dogs used were not full hunting bred American bulldogs as 95% of them here ain't! And if by American Bull you mean Pitbull then yeh in sure someone somewhere has had a go at that cross too lol Edited May 16, 2013 by j1985 1 Quote Link to post

I think J1985 is right though, the bull would have to be from working stock and I doubt there is a lot of that about in this country. Quote Link to post

If folks would actually just take a dog out and see what its made of they would more than likely soon see that the big macho image they had of said such dog wouldnt stand up to much. Its pretty sad at what folks think they know versus what they actually do know. FFS my lil 13 year old daughter has seen more canine combat than most the grown men that spout utter shit. 4 Quote Link to post
