The Bull X

I don't think Bull Crosses lack stamina, infact I'd say it's the opposite. Maybe they put more effort into their runs than say a Collie Cross???

 

I'd say that was a massive generalisation. I think the 'effort' put into a run is probably as much down to the individual dog.

 

I think the issue r.e bull x's and stamina, is in the breeding. How many greyhounds that are used, have very good stamina? And how many of the bulls used actually have any kind of decent stamina, most of them are 'pet bulls'. . . . . hardly done a days work in their life. . . . . they also have a different kind of stamina to other breeds.

I wouldn't say so, a decent Bull cross will have a hell of a lot more fire and determination than say a Collie cross, correct me if I'm wrong but wasn't Bull added to pure Greyhound to add fire??

There's some very firey greyhounds about, the bull is put in so they stick beyond the first grab and shake.

Couple of things - Jm and DF - I really like, respect and have a lot of time for bull blooded dogs, both using a bit of bull in a mixed breed lurcher, and as a 'proper' bull x. Yes I probably did generalise by saying 'most'. . . . I know it certainly isn't all, i know plenty of very well bred and very good bull x's. . . . . however there is more shite in the breed than a lot of others, probably due to their fashionable status.

 

Also I would not equate 'effort' put into a run with 'fire;, I think the latter is more about what happens when they get to their quarry, or when the chips are down. I've never seen a dog put more effort into a run than a pure sight hound. . . . .

 

There are lots of different types of stamina also.
