As soon as you add any bull to the mix you can forget 200 yard slips. LOL!!!! There's a lot of dogs that can't finish the job quickly without help, regardless of breeding. I don't mean a dog that's left to it's own devices and slowly chews away or has a throat hold for 5 minutes, I mean a dog that hits hard and shakes enough that by the time you get there, there's nothing for you to do.

elisderyn 496 Posted May 29, 2013 Report Share Posted May 29, 2013 dont waist your time,, theres no way a genuine bull/whippet 1/2 or 3/4 bred is catching and killing foxes single handed regular!! there just not physicaly built for regular fox work!! quite suprised at this statement as there are plenty of 14" terriers that do it regularly.....the bull whippets ive seen look pretty handy but to be honest ive never seen one run..is there anyone out there with one who can shed light on their pre ban performances ?? I bet not many of them terriers would kill foxes regularly on top of the gound.Especially if they were already blowing like a small lurcher would be from a decent run. i see your point elis, forgive my naiveness when i read the first few replys i interpreted it wrong and thaught they were saying that the bull whippet wasnt physically capable of killing foxes regular... i was thinking of around a hole and not running them in large fields...

There's a lot of shit bull x's out there, I'll give you that but I think you're way off of the mark about the best bull whippets. They can do a lot more than you give them credit for. You might not have seen any real good ones. I'm no fan of any bull x or whippets but I won't take anything away from what the decent ones can do. 3 Quote Link to post
