Why not use a doberman in a make up a lucher??????There as been so many crosses some that worked and some that have not you never know until you try it.When people started using jackrussells,borders,collies,wheaten s,pits,staffs,G shepherd,labs,pointers,foxhounds,harrier hounds, etc etc the list goes on and on did we know at the start that this would all work out?????At the end day the only people that judge this cross is the people have run one or seen one work .Everything else is hear say
