BREED DETAILS
GENERAL
GENERAL
The Bull Arab was developed in the mid 1970's. Different breeds were crossed together to strive for the ultimate pig dog. The cross used in the Bull Arab was chosen for its temperament and trainability.
The Bull Arab is a tough, active dog. He needs to have the endurance and speed to be able to hunt and find but still the strength to control a wild boar. The dog presents a balanced image between power and speed. Everything about the dog should be moderate and balanced, it is not a dog of extremes. Scars resulting from wounds received while working are not to be penalized. Symmetrical and well built all over, general outline a series of graceful curves.
