Greb147 6,809 Posted July 20, 2021 Report Share Posted July 20, 2021 Nobody on god's earth knows the exact origins of the Alaunt so how can he recreate the breed. Still, they look decent animals but what's really the point of them? I suppose they are more functional than a lot of pure breeds these days but again they are just big shitting machines, like most dogs really. Quote Link to post

Apparently as good as any bull cross.Now Im a fan of a good bull cross but realistically 90%of the strong ones you see couldnt catch a fox in a phone box.Im also a big fan of working mastiffs but cant for the life of me see what they'd bring to a hunting dog. 8 Quote Link to post

Tbf they could catch gear if thrown out of a motor and that's about it, I've seen AB crosses do it so they would. As for teeth and in particular foxes, they would tow wouldn't they.

Mr Wilkes 2,973 Posted July 20, 2021 Report Share Posted July 20, 2021 For the life of me I can’t understand why you would want to walk 3 of them at once, 300lb of muscle to get off anything would take some doing. 3 Quote Link to post
