wezza 396 Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 My bull x approx 1/4 bull in his make up, he will be 2 in July so a 1st proper season for him. I personally rate the 1/4 bull x's, fast, agile and have plenty of drive, strength and determination. Easy to muscle up and get fit although mine are kept fit all year round. With a bit of saluki, collie, whippet in the mix you have potentially got a decent all rounder There is saluki whippet bull grey in his make up. Who else runs 1/4 bull blood in there dogs, lets see some pics 9 Quote Link to post

roybo 2,873 Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 I think it depends what you want a bull cross for ,whether you need anything else other than greyhound, If just a mooching dog then maybe don't need the bull in there in the first place,but bull blood in my opinion Adds a lot more than muscle,gameness Is one thing that you may want bull blood for. 1 Quote Link to post

billy whizz 141 Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 nice conditioned dog that wezza pal i like the 1/4 bull thrown in the mix looks bang on to me. 1 Quote Link to post
roybo 2,873 Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 A good 1/2 cross is an awesome dog for a job,and yes they can run,there are fast ones about, But even heavy ones have there place,some wouldn't want anything else in there,,but a little bull blood goes a long way so a little in a lurcher give that little something Quote Link to post

wezza 396 Posted April 30, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 Obviously the main reason we add the bull blood is for the gameness, that is a certainty and the main trait we strive for in our bull lurchers. I've seen racey half crosses that can run and catch as well as 3/4 grey 1/4 bulls do what you would expect of a half cross. As long as the breedings right your on to a winner with decent blood. I just like how a 1/4 bull throws a racier type of dog that can catch and dispatch. 2 Quote Link to post
