I can explain, it isnt a Bull grey cross, something else is in there!! No way is it genetically possible for the dogs coat to be like that!

 

We know what the lines are right the way down to great grandparents,

from both Sire and Dam. and beleive me there is nothing else in this pup..

Are you sure the bitch didn`t get with another dog while she was in season as it could be a split litter

Definately not... the only other dog that could of got over the bitch was her own dad who is the same line

and there was no way he got over the bitch anyway...

3 of the pups are 4 times bigger smooth coat and look normal racey type from the mothers side...

its just 4 pups are like mine and no-one can work out why..

Couple more pics...

Is the black pup a litter-mate?

ive never seen a long haired bullx .

 

I have 3 bullx dogs myself and have had lurchers for over 20 years

and never seen one bred like this,

my mate that bred this pup has bred lurchers and bullx for over 30 years,

he is stumped by it too,

All the lads we go out with are stumped,

No one seems to be able to explain it..

The only real explanation is some kind of throw back..

But why are 3 pup big leggy racey smooth coat and 4 pup like mine..

small stumpy and thick long coat.., weird

its got everyone puzzled

Because the bitch has been caught before or after the "bull x" got there; a split mating, as others have suggested.

Cheers.

believe me billy boy is right

 

billy boy, up untill last year my mate had a bitch which looked just like that one you have there, he got her at eight weeks old off another friend of ours who actually bred the litter, the father was a bull (proper type) red and white dog, we know all of its breeding going back years, the bitch was pure greyhound, with all relevant paperwork we also know quite a bit about her breeding, the bitch had never been mated before and was penned on its own, always.

 

there were 4 pups in the litter and 3 looked like you would expect out of this first cross mating, they looked like bull greyhounds should,

 

however the thing that my mate got was a right ugly thing it looked just like a little mongrel, it had long thick hair, and it grew up to be a horrible little fat mongrel looking thing which was no good for anything you would never in a million years have called it a lurcher, it looked like a golden retriever x mongrel, i have never known anything like it untill reading your post.

The bitch had not mated with any other dog, at all, its impossible for that to have happened,

and this mate was her very first mate and litter..

We shall hang on to him and see how he developes, see if he does out to be a mongrel looking thing that is fit for naff all,

but i will post more pics on as he grows,

Its got everyone talking round here, its just something unexplainable..
