Stevebeno 0 Posted May 8, 2008 Report Share Posted May 8, 2008 All lurcher crosses have there good and bad points. Having my first lurcher i decided to get some reading done and in several of these books the bull crosses seem to get a fair bit of critism. I have a grey bull pup and hes comming along great but since this is my 1st dog i have nothing to compair him to. What are your thoughts on the bull cross used in lurchers???? Quote Link to post

Tallyho 181 Posted May 8, 2008 Report Share Posted May 8, 2008 some will do the job others wont the same as in all breeds, i had one bullx bitch couple of years back, and was a pain in the ass, kept f*****g off when it suited her, had two foxs then then wouldnt take any thing after that, not even rabbits, but then my partner had a bullx and he was an absolute diamond in every way, he had the heart of a lion, would take any thing, he was obediant, he jumped was stock broken, he was one of them special dogs that you dont get very often, he did every thing that was asked of him.

What are your thoughts on the bull cross used in lurchers???? there are many difrent prefrances/oppinions and aslo types of lurchers, i dont see how people can critisize surten types if they have not owned 'the' type (ie bull blooded) of lurcher,(not saying that eny-one on this thread has 'nocked' the bull type lurcher, but.. often this question comes up on this forum 'your thoughts on a bullcross'. why does it get repeated? its a pointless question in my eyes, but there you go.. 'each to there own' Quote Link to post
Tallyho 181 Posted May 8, 2008 Report Share Posted May 8, 2008 just because they are bullx's dont mean they are all thick set things that are to heavy to run, the bitch i got now has took the more racey side, and she can run, and yes they can catch hares, not many do but they can and i have seen a bullx catch hare Quote Link to post
