leethedog 3,071 Posted February 5, 2015 Report Share Posted February 5, 2015 Bull X brings a lot to the table if I were able to house another it would be bull.x Quote Link to post
Jarvis 277 Posted February 5, 2015 Report Share Posted February 5, 2015 I think in years gone by bull x's were used but they are just spoken of more now and are very much in vogue at the moment. It's similar to how jack Russells were popular now it's moving towards patterdales. Personally I'll be sticking with my whippetxbeds but it's horses for courses and everyone has preferences So good luck to them. 1 Quote Link to post
JAE B 545 Posted February 5, 2015 Report Share Posted February 5, 2015 A little bull goes a far way. an 1/8th bull spot on 2 Quote Link to post
fluff 409 Posted February 5, 2015 Report Share Posted February 5, 2015 never had bull in a lurcher never neede it , got hard bitten colie type and saluki coursing type more than enough 2 Quote Link to post
jigsaw 11,863 Posted February 5, 2015 Report Share Posted February 5, 2015 (edited) i see the 3/4 reverse bull types,and scratch my head,why the hell would ye want one,beyond me.If ye need a pulling dog why not get a wheaten and help re establish the breed,or something of similar ilk,and you cant say they are inconspicious in the field cause most of the 3/4 bred bulls look like racey pits to me.Ive had 2 over the years and wont be having another,they are of limited use to me,some i must admit with just a smidgen of bull look class and no doubt are gutsy animals.

bird 9,872 Posted February 5, 2015 Report Share Posted February 5, 2015 never had bull in a lurcher never neede it , got hard bitten colie type and saluki coursing type more than enough most lurcherxs will tackle stuff for the dinner plate , but if not for the dinner plate , bit of bull deff will do that job, and even if just knocking rabbits over , that bit of grit+ drive from the bull will had to a long+ hard night, with run after run you don't need a lot 1/4 bull plenty it will still come through 3 Quote Link to post
slip lead 862 Posted February 5, 2015 Report Share Posted February 5, 2015 If you have greyhound in your lurcher (which most have) then you have bull breeds in your dog, maybe a long time ago, but bulldog was used, just like Staffordshire Bull terrier was used in whippets. Bull lurchers are the latest must haves, but if people are getting them for the right reasons all good. In the 70 es early 80'es it was the same with saluki crosses,some would say there shit and some would say the opposite, and look now how much they have improved the lurchers of today on some game. Like the saluki x it's not for everyone but that doesn't mean there not perfect for some. Happy Hunting 1 Quote Link to post
