jake824 517 Posted October 19, 2016 Report Share Posted October 19, 2016 To be honest unless people have personally kept and worked the different crosses and not just seen 1 run on one night then I can t really see how they can give judgement 1 Quote Link to post
DogFox123 1,379 Posted October 19, 2016 Report Share Posted October 19, 2016 (edited) Do you think a 3/4 bull 1/4 grey. Would have more fire in its belly than a. 1/2 x bull.grey. Perhaps the dog aint need for running. Just standing about.waiting. A half cross can stand around but it can run too if needed too.And how much fire do they need to kill something half their size or less.Depends on how much work is put in front of it.And how much explosive power is needed. Maybe the dog is out tomorow and the day after. No good working a sore dog. so is a reverse 3/4 not going to get bitten then or sore then?I've owned worked and seen plenty of other good bull lurcher work over the years.Ive also owned worked and seen other well bred bulldogs work over the years and one thing I've noticed is that the bull crosses normally have better finish than pure bulls or rely heavy bred bulls who seem happy to just roll about in holds getting chewed upIt's down to the dog though, I've seen pure Bull at it's quarry for what seemed like an eternity because it didn't have the brains to go into the puddings. I've also seen a dynamite 3/4 greyhound finish the show in short order, I think it's more down to intelligence if the dog has enough grit. Some of the most devastating Bulldogs have been worked on vermin as young dogs, the great Bolio was a demon on pigs I read. Edited October 19, 2016 by DogFox123 2 Quote Link to post

leethedog 3,071 Posted October 20, 2016 Report Share Posted October 20, 2016 I don't understand why people talk about what bulldog is added to greyhound all it is added for is more muscle mass and a stronger head I for one know for a fact a decent greyhound lacks nothing in the way of prey drive Quote Link to post

If what you say is true we could use a fat little staffy and get the same results as using a game bred tried and tested proper bull with great conformation, wind, athletic ability, complete lack of self preservation and most importantly of all the minerals. 4 Quote Link to post
leethedog 3,071 Posted October 20, 2016 Report Share Posted October 20, 2016 Most greyhounds have all you have stated as a base line and why the f**k would any right minded person want a dog with no self preservation 3 Quote Link to post
