A Pit Bull Terrier bred to a Great Dane creates a very powerful and great looking dog. With superior added qualities that the Great Dane does not posses. I have mentioned before that I personally watched Bass' Tramp Red Boy game tested on a Pit Bull x Great Dane cross.

This was done in the middle of the summertime. Tramp Red Boy weighed around 60 pounds and the Pit Bull/Great Dane cross weighed around 125 pounds. This Pit Bull/Great Dane ran loose on it's owner's yard, was in good lean shape. Tramp Red Boy was not worked, right off it's chain and drove 50 miles to the roll site. Tramp Red Boy took a tough game test that day. Allowed to go to it's conclusion, Tramp Red Boy would have been killed. Tramp Red Boy was always in holds and made several game hard scratches.

This Pit Bull/Great Dane cross makes a very good catch dog keeping it's strong instinct's to catch and hold wild boar with plenty of power and strength to spare. Two of these type dogs could catch and hold pretty well any size Wild or Feral hogs.

Crossing the Pit Bull Terrier to just about any other bred of sporting dogs produces a excellent Hybrid dog. That has greatly improved strength and vigor taking away none of that breeds abilities. The basic problem though; is that these Hybrid crosses can be more dog aggressive. If bred into your scent hounds may run silent and not bark. So you do not know where the dog is till it corner's or catches what it is hunting. Then you only hear what the dog has caught singing the fat lady song. LOL

My Father had two Pit Bull/Pointer Bird dogs named Jack and Jill. Were excellent Bird dogs but did not play well with any other bird dogs in the field. The Plott Hound is suppose to posse some of the same Pit Bull cross way back when. Are very powerful and aggressive Coon Hounds at the Tree. Most Coon Walker Hound dog men do not like to do night hunts with a Plott Hound in the mix.

A friend I knew years back had a solid Black 85 pound in lean shape Plott Hound. This Hound stopped many a young Pit Dog when rolled in it's own back yard. Would climb about any tree to get a Cat. Was a excellent and smart dog on wild boar. We called this dog Cool Hand Luke. One time his owner made the mistake of leaving Cool Hand Luke in his nice Cadillac. Stopped at a Honky Tonk beer joint, went inside too drink some Buds.

Meanwhile Cool Hand Luke saw a Cat outside and near the car. When the owner later went back to his car. The whole front console and much the rest of the car was ripped apart. Those were some expensive Buds that night. LOL, Cheers.
