XL Bully dog - discussion

Dogs with a high prey drive might not be ideal.as a family pet. As a person that grew up with GSDs, ouch and I adore them.

But there we have it - prey drive plus massive ability to.kill - why would people without the ability to control.their dogs, have these dogs. It's the same as the gun laws.

I've had dogs with a massive prey drive as pets, but they weren't so huge you couldn't physically restrain them, and I think that's the key. The dogs were:
Twatterdale terrier
Lurcher
Collie (working)
 
One of my lakies was a superb ratter. We used to get rats when the people next door had chickens, and Lola Lakie's record was 3 in one day. She used to leave them displayed on the lawn, so the neighbours could appreciate her efforts.
My collies and the Patterdale were pretty good at finding and killing rats if left to their own devices.
