ratkilla 35 Posted April 6, 2009 Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 Dan i think you yanky lads need to get some proper dogs for the job and stop arseing around Quote Link to post
bud9 79 Posted April 6, 2009 Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 to be fair a think a half decent bullx would kill them coyotyes Quote Link to post
fenman1# 724 Posted April 6, 2009 Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 id love to watch one of them hunt and take down its quarry, its a shame killing them, but if there on the hunting list then so be it Quote Link to post
Malt 379 Posted April 6, 2009 Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 to be fair a think a half decent bullx would kill them coyotyes Why don't they use Bull x's for Coyotes in the states then? Could it be because they've already got the right tools for the job?? Quote Link to post
Dan Edwards 1,134 Posted April 6, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 Good bullcrosses can and will dispatch coyotes but it still usually takes two of them but the problem is that it would be an extremely rare one that could ever catch a coyote. Quote Link to post

Work it out. Quote Link to post

Work it out. what is thare to think about mate if the bullx is the best fox dog out thare then a dont see any reason why thay should not be tried on a 30lb coyote becouse the bullx will still be twice its weight when you think about this a terrier can kill and a terrier will be similer weights with a fox so to me a good 3/4 gray 1/4 bull should be able to catch and kill a coyote but everyone has diffrent oppinions Quote Link to post
Guest redeyes Posted April 6, 2009 Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 2 0R THREE AMARICAN PITS OR/DOGOS WOULD DO A WOLF IF THEY WERE BACKED IN A CORNER WITH IT NO PROBS Quote Link to post
Dan Edwards 1,134 Posted April 6, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 2 0R THREE AMARICAN PITS OR/DOGOS WOULD DO A WOLF IF THEY WERE BACKED IN A CORNER WITH IT NO PROBS Thats funny cause most of the pits in this country cannot even kill a coyote properly and thats a fact. You can ask those who have tried it. Our stags kill way faster and much more effeciently than the bulldogs do. Quote Link to post
thomps125 49 Posted April 6, 2009 Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 pure whippet would do them no probs Quote Link to post

I agree with you 100% but they will have to be good ones. I told another fella on here in a pm that yall have the dogs that it would take to make coyote hounds but you would just have to have the game and then breed them over time to kind of get consistent.

zap 4 Posted April 6, 2009 Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 i think its more the catching them that would be the problem ,from what dan says those coyotes can cover the ground Quote Link to post
dogman89 0 Posted April 6, 2009 Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 Dan...were the wolves shot or how were they caught?? Quote Link to post
Dan Edwards 1,134 Posted April 6, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 Catchin them is definately tough cause they can move for sure and have extreme endurance. Literally they have about twice as much endurance as a fox at the same speed. I have theory though that no animal has super great enurance at their top speed but the problem is gettin a coyote to run at their top speed. You have to have a dog that can really cover ground cause you wont get an easy dump or slip on one. They dont hang around long enough to chat. Once you catch one, you must then have courage to throat one and then the strength and endurance to keep it pinned down which aint easy either. It truly is an exceptional dog that can take one single handed but most definately some of the bullcrosses might be able to do it. Some pure greyhounds can do it also though but they are the rarest of the rare. Quote Link to post
