bird 10,014 Posted December 26, 2012 Report Share Posted December 26, 2012 Hi lads, hit a wall with google as the info on there not to clear, can anyone tell me a little about the background, use and breading of the alaunt in hunting please seen some on hear months ago fine looking animals looked like bull mastives im intrested in them but they seem to be a rare breed cheers some are very athletic others are not all the ones ive seen have a strong desire to hunt the later generation ones are alot more athletic the kc bull mastiff could do with a bit of alaunt blood when you look back at the Bullmastiff of 100 years ago, which were the keeper night dog. The Alunt was like that bullmastiff then, not the show shit of today. I had bullmastiffs in the 80s , and back then the breed had health probs (HD not long lived etc....) thats why i came out of it. Yes if the put drop of Alunt blood to the gene pool of Bullmastiffs of today would really help the breed, but regards to lurchers carnt see the point, when there good type of bull terriers been bred to work for years in this country, or can still brought over to get good bullxs.!!
