Bull X In 2016


Recommended Posts

Again another guy who's opinion is respected

 

Well ds I've seen a few that were very well kept, but the majority were always gassed after 2 or 3 testing runs so I'm a firm believer in only ever talking about what you've seen yourself , maybe I've been unfortunate in seeing very good lurchers and average bull types

 

I don't mind if you don't want to reply but didn't you sell a lovely bitch to some lads from South Wales about 16 years ago , was her name not honey?

 

Now that was a lovely bitch!!!

I like a bit of bull in my lurchers ?

I love a decent bull bred lurcher.Its 90% of the backward picks that own them I can't be around.

I think every lurcher sould have a bit bull in them

]This may sound better in my head .

But I never really see the bull cross as a lurcher as such

To me a lurcher is an all round hunting dog. The word to me brings memories of me as a kid with my pals and our dogs lurching around in rough spots and railway lines near our town

I never see the need for something with the build of a rugby league player being essential in the hunting world

For a youngster starting off in the game . A bull cross is a great starting point with their carry on regardless attitude being great for early success on the part of both the tyro hunter and the hound itself...but I'd like to think at some point . The hunter matures in himself enough to move onto other things

Don't think I'm a bull hater, far from it, and for the foxing man , or keen digger a handy bull cross is worth its often considerable weight in sovereigns . It's just my own belief that for the roustabout hunter, a borderline bullmastiff is not exactly the weapon of choice in my eyes , theres always going to be that macho need for them when in reality they are literally overkill

maybe it sounded better in my head than typed, but for me they are not a lurcher, rather a stand alone type

some good points stiffmeister, and some bull crosses are ,indeed,the rugby league player ,

and as you say the will do a job for some. especially for a terrier man.

 

But they do come in all shapes and % and builds with some 1/4 bred being light and quick.

i have a 3/8 bull x bitch here that was far from slow (or heavy).

 

 

 

I like their out going attitude without the sensitivity of some crosses.

but my hunting has changed over the last few years so,

these days, i'd sooner something else in the mix too,

but i'll always have some bull in there.

refreshing ,to hear an argument against that makes sense.

Pretty much hit the nail on the head roybo buddy, I'd much rather see a good old jukel like yours than some war dog being hefted ffrom the back of an Astra into a stubble field

 

she is what she is mate ,that photo is when she was 12 months old though lol

,been a good partner of mine for 10+ years ,so a bit more "lived in"

I was lucky,and got something that could run anything,that i ran

her sister turned out 29, inch and produced wild bills dog in a round-about way

to a father daughter mating

Yes I did.She was bred out of my old bitch who was even better and could hold her own with any all round lurcher.
