    IMG_4427.JPG IMG_4427.JPG IMG_4300.JPG IMG_1777.JPG just a quick introduction, I live in the U.K. Iv always been into all bullbreeds started training with my Staffordshire bull terrier about 6-7 years ago a little bit of weight pulling etc unfortunately a staff in decent condition draws the wrong kind of attention over here even though he was KC registered people would comment he was a pit (banned in this country) and I got a bit paranoid about having him taken off me so I ended up working running dogs which I still do but iv still got a massive interest in bullbreeds and especially in sports....anyways I'll try and upload a few pictures of my staff and lurchers cheers

    I'm guessing they've got a bit of apbt in them ? We've got shitty laws over here we can course rabbits with dogs but it's illegal to course hares even though they do just as much if not more damage to the farmers crops, so they get shot and we only use the dogs to retrieve them........

    Interesting. For the last couple of years my family have been trying to convince me to throw in the Bulldogs & train Greyhounds for them. As if I'm going to cur after twenty years!

    Welcome. Nice staff..and also lurchers.
    Very great shape. I think i know a couple folks that use them.whipits and sulkies.
    Not sure i spelled correctly.
    As said..they use them for coyote here. Open season most all year I believe.
    Saves bullets and effectively controls the problem. I personally want to venture in more hunting and catch work. Always glad to see others dogs and hear on what they run.

    Alritght mate, that’s what got me into dogs to begin with! Live in the countryside(uk)and there wasn’t much to do when I was young other than going out lamping. Haven’t been out for a while now but my friend is still bang at it, he has two bull/greyhounds a dog and a bitch littermates. There machines but still very agile and turn rabbits inside out and smash anything else with little trouble!
