Classification and standards

The Bull Arab is an Australian dog breed that is bred primarily as a "bay dog" for wild boar hunting. They are generally a loyal dog, with a great temperament. They were bred with the need to create a dog with enough size to stop large boars but with enough speed and stamina to outlast many of the other heavier mastiffs.

History

The Bull Arab was developed in the early 1980s, and is a cross between a Bull Terrier, Greyhound, and Pointer.^[1]
