The result was a medium to large size, short-haired, muscular dog.[2]       (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4The Bull Arab was originally bred for feral pig hunting, and developed to locate pigs, pull them to the ground, and hold them by the ear.[4] The breed is able to locate feral pigs as far as 4\u20136 kilometres (2.5\u20133.7\u00a0mi) away by smell.[1]Table of ContentsTemperament[edit]Abandonment[edit]See also[edit]References[edit]Temperament[edit]Bull Arabs were bred for a temperament appropriate for their role as a hunting dog. They have a strong prey drive they have a tendency to chase smaller dogs and animals and are said to require early socialization with other dogs to prevent aggressive behavior.       (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4The breed has a reputation for aggression.[5] Attacks on people, including children, have been attributed to the breed and have resulted in serious injury.[6][7][8] Although the Mackay Regional Council reports hunting dogs are not represented in greater numbers of dog bites than other dog breeds,[9] larger and more aggressive dogs like the Bull Arab are more likely to cause serious injury or death during an attack.[10]  Attacks on livestock, including the killing of a number of sheep and other animals, have been attributed to Bull Arabs.[11][12][13][14][15]The breed is cited as being used for companion and therapy animals.[16][17]Abandonment[edit]Due to restrictions on rental housing agreements in Queensland that prohibit larger sized dog breeds, many large breeds of dogs including Bull Arabs are often abandoned in that state.[18]RSPCA Australia also attributes this to a perceived rise in pig hunting, with hunters not desexing their animals, resulting in litters often being dumped.[19]See also[edit]References[edit]^ a b c d Tuskers Magazine, “Intro to Australia and Bull Arabs”, Adam Mirfin, February 2013, p 26.^ a b c Studdert, Virginia P.; Gay, Clive C.; Blood, Douglas C.
