Pups first rabbit.


Recommended Posts

Took him out last friday to let him see a few. Gave him two short runs just to see if he was keen. Unfortunatly he missed both. Took him out for his normal walk this evening and he saw the flash of tail and let him go, caught it after 70yds and a couple of turns. Straight back to hand alive and un-munched, all that training seams to have paid off. Just got to restrain myself now as he is only seven months tomorow, I'll just give him a short run every other week until he's one. I was like a dog with two d**ks let alone him. :dance:

i like the look of him hows he bred :good:

Hi Steve, he's a bitza. Sire was 3/4 grey and 1/4 whippet. Dam was 1/2 grey,1/4 collie,1/8 whippet and 1/8 deerhound. So predominantly grey with just about everything else that you could stuff in with the exception of saluki and bull. Didn't want any bull in him as I used to own an English bull and now have young kids and since he lives indoors didn't want to take any risks.

Well done mate, it's a good feeling ain't it. Don't spoil him.

Kev.

Cheers mate. Yes great feeling and I know that now I'll have to just keep him keen with just a single run every couple of weeks or so on easy looking bunnys. Will look at incresing this once he's a year old in march when the young bunnys start to appear.

Well Having seen first hand what a fully grown adult male English bull is capable of when he's lost his temper you wouldn't put your own children in line for the same. Yep any dog will bite, but the breeding in my lurcher should narrow the risk of the bite being serious. I loved owning my bull and will own one again when my kids are older. But until then there is no way I'll take the risk of having that little tazmainian devil hidden deep within show it's self. The bull lurcher has a percentage of bull in him but with kids in mind then any percentage for me is too much. I'm NOT knocking bull crosses. Far from it. They are superb at what they do, just not for me know.

Maybe you should have done a bit of research before you bought the bullie then mate. I have kept bull terriers for years have got a bitch at home with a litter of 6. Also a workin bull cross bitch , i would not take any chances with my 2 children who are 3 and 1. Sorry but people like you really piss me off!

My bull only ever attacked one dog that bit him first. So self deffence I supose. Yep did my research, so your wrong there. As I said my new lurcher lives in doors as do my kids. No room in my house for a bull at this point in my life. Sorry if that REALLY pisses you off. But it's my house and my decision. I posted this thread to talk about my pup catchin his first bunny so we'll stick to the subject. If you don't want to say anything constructive then F**K OFF and irritate some else. :censored:

Im not tryin to irratate anyone son, and i totally understand that i'm goin off line from the original thread. But you stated that you didn't want any bull in him as you used to own an English bull and you have seen what they can do. All my dogs live in doors. You are talking absolute shit! I would put a wage that you have very little experiance with such a narrow minded view. Why dont you think about what your saying? If you dont like, why dont you F.ck OFF. End of

Thank you jart. We all have our reasons for the choices that we make with regards to the breeding of our dogs. This maybe staminia, straight line speed, turning speed, inteligence, coat and the finnish with regards to the quarry you intend to hunt. It's all just personal choice. ANYWAY have you got your pup yet? If you have can I see a pic of it? So chuffed with my pups first bunny. Great feeling to know that all the training should pay off. :signthankspin:

congrats on your first one. i can also understand why the comment on no bull blood coz of kids touched a nerve. personally i believe bull terriers if raised correctly are the most biddable around kids.... like you put thou your house your kids your choice. keep us posted on progress of running dog.

First of all good luck with the pup, he sounds a cracker.

 

But statements like this about bull breeds in general is a bloody joke.

I agree totally you must have got a messed up dog mate, i could not believe someone who lived with bull breeds would say shite like that!

 

I lived with bull breeds since a very young age & never had one go for me, my younger sister or my younger brother or anyone in the family come to think about it, bearing in mind my brother was a baby & we had the dogs first, in fact i would go as far to say if you a family & you asked me what dog would be a suitable dog aslong as you were responsible ( by this i mean no kids should get left with ANY dog fullstop ) i would probably suggest a dog like a staffie as although they may grow to have some serious dog aggression, people are diffiniatly not on the menu.

 

Goodluck with the pup anyway mate
