    Thanks for the input lads

    Perhaps i should have been abit more clear when starting the topic.

    I didnt expect a teckel to be anywhere in the same league as a patterdale. I’m after something that’s just a steady bayer and can be dug to on a shallow earth or run a drain. Something that can do abit of ratting plus i like the fact you can track with them and also work them alongside gun dogs.

    Thanks

    A teckel from working breeding should do most of that. 

    Have a look at West Sussex working teckels on Facebook. He looks to have decent enough stuff and digging lines.

    Im sure there are others who keep working teckels that might have pups available.

    Good luck with it, they're good fun.

    Good Morning

    I have been reading numerous threads on here about people who have worked/still work teckels. I know alot of people use them mainly for bushing etc but does anyone have any experience using them for Earth work? 
    What are your geniune thoughts on their ability, they seem to be becoming more popular

    Many thanks

    I keep a few teckels and can only comment on mine.

    There a grand breed, i use mine for bushing and you'd have a right bit of craic with them

    I have one dog that would be hard enough. But the others are either not bothered about going to ground or will go in and sound away. You'd get handy foxes with them but you wouldn't be digging 6 foot to them. That suits me as I want them hunting.

    There might be lines that are better for digging?

    As others said if you are serious about digging than other breeds might be more suitable.

    I have a pair of chaps with the ripstop material.

    There a great job for bushing, going through briars and bogs etc.

    I picked them up cheap in Decathlon a few years back.

    They don't seem to do them anymore.

    Anyone recommend a supplier of something similar.

    Thanks

    I had the pleasure of hunting with Pat for a few seasons when I was a young lad. I have many happy memories of those days.

    He's line of wheaten were as fine an animal that you would see, big strong dogs and bitches, that were made for the job. One was as impresive as the other.

    As Jigsaw said there's mot many of his kind left, he kept and bred he's wheatens for one reason only.

    May he rest in peace.

    Very nice, two cracking bitches.

    What age are they?

    Would they give plenty of tongue?

    Thanks
