FightTheBan 1,147 Posted February 3, 2011 Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 If neither of them are worthy of breeding the go to the vets and get rid of them. Now. Matters not if the 'cross' is good or not, its whether your dog and bitch is. Just my opinion. FTB 1 Quote Link to post

Well if thats the case, then yes there are some handy crosses of this type, if the breeding is done right. By that I mean both parents must be of decent blood and graft to a standard. A staffy that is only used for 'bushing and ratting' will more than likely be the wrong type to use and therefor chances are you will end up with a litter of shite - like the many that have gone before it. I have seen 2 good bull/russels working. The rest have been way off the mark for a variety of reasons. That is my opinion, you did ask for it. FTB Quote Link to post

Irishmac 5 Posted February 3, 2011 Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 Seen two out of one litter a few years back from a jack russell bitch served by a staff dog. Both looking like staffs, but a wee bit less bulky. Both couldn't fit into most fox earths, but they guy used them for other hunting quarry, rats, mink, wild moggies, and other things. Both were excellent at drawing. Now when these were mated back to jack russell bitches to produce 3/4 russell 1/4 staff pups, well I haven't seen anything like them for confirmation and prey drive ever. Good luck.
