Guest lurchers&terriers Posted April 8, 2008 Report Share Posted April 8, 2008 Whats with the bull cross and youngsters these days? I like the breed but at the mo it seems like its the in thing to have, something that makes you look hard. Whats wrong with a collie x or a beddy whippet and starting off on the bunnies. Its a shame the way things are going, we have all seen you tube or the bebo sites where foxes suffer in the hand of in experanced kids who think its funny to watch a charlie dieing slowly. Whats the script? Quote Link to post
Guest rio Posted April 8, 2008 Report Share Posted April 8, 2008 im only a youngster at 19 and have 2 bull xs they see more work than most worked regular during the season suppose its what suits you best but i do look hard at the shows with them had this bitch on trial for 2 weeks and bagged a fair bit of game with her Quote Link to post
Guest smashygadge Posted April 8, 2008 Report Share Posted April 8, 2008 well as a youngster i used to breed bulls i didnt get into running dogs until 30 and took a total u turn and got a collie cross a dog i said i would never have.so i suppose choice of dog is one that suits its owner and will say that a bull can be softer than most dogs Quote Link to post
moter poacher 2 Posted April 8, 2008 Report Share Posted April 8, 2008 theres that many people breeding bullx for the sake of breeding ie its pretty easy these days to buy a bullx pup for little money with the breeders only gain is the cash Quote Link to post

Whats the script? i do not think it is aobut looking hard , i think that the bull xs are so versitle may not be out & out hare dogs but may takem. but for things that bite back (pre ban ) you cant beet them Quote Link to post

Far to slow, no wind, turn like the Qe2 and as for hares forget it. Thats my experience of them anyway, but i live in hope of actually seeing one of these good ones i keep hearing about. However i won,t hold my breath as the saying goes. Quote Link to post

However i won,t hold my breath as the saying goes. thats what most people say when they havent seen them breed [bANNED TEXT].i have two bull x they are strong fast and relieable have owned other crosses that just burned out.i work mine when the season is in during the day and again at nite they have been through alot of work last season ..what other crosses would take the hardship of a bull cross .you have to own and work one before you judge them belive me mine work single handed on strong game and have never let me down Quote Link to post
T78 4 Posted April 9, 2008 Report Share Posted April 9, 2008 i think its half crosses that people either love or hate.both my dogs are quarter bull and they're both fast and agile. personally,i won't ever have a half cross again,nothing personal,just not the dogs for me!horse for courses and i dont think the majority of half crosses are genuine all rounders. but i see why some people are in love with them!lol Quote Link to post

Whats the script?i was the first in my area to breed bull xs and at the time i ofered all the lads that hunt round me one of them as i wanted to follow their progress,my best mate picked one at the time but the rest all went like hot cakes but not locally anyway the following year pups were tried and all bar one that went to southern ireland (lost touch)worked like trains.all the lads who said when i bred them they would be shite now have bull crosses.the pup my mate took is a genuine allrounder.yes there is shit gettin bred but if you go to adog you know lined to a bitch you know ill bet you will run bull bred stuff afterwards Quote Link to post
