bluecollar 104 Posted November 4, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2008 sort the terier out first mate and stop worrying about spoffing thats a disgrace u should be more worried about her than taking pics They are in the process of taking them out when the pic was taken, believe it or not they have taken about 1/4 out already :blink: ... The pic was taken for me so I would know how bad she was.. so what ever "spoffing" is that is not what was going on.. so thanks for the thought but worry about your own dogs... no infection but a lot of trauma and they burrow in and will pop out weird places (eyes, noise, mouth, etc.) for a long time. will ruin the dogs joints if they get in them bad over and over..

Just another lad messing up a thread, and a good one too! For me, its nice to see our British breeds/strains of terriers doing a good job for you over in the states Im going to ask a couple of questions if thats ok, just as im curious.... Are those badgers found 'to ground', if so, do they dig huge deep setts like our own badgers? What size do they make? Cheers BC, thanks for sharing the pics...........those porkies look a real nightmare! DnN Quote Link to post

Cheers BC, thanks for sharing the pics...........those porkies look a real nightmare! DnN Yes they are to ground, they are nomadic and were caught in one of their feeding holes (from digging for gofers)... no most setts are shallow unless you get where they really live and that is not common.. The biggest so far was 40lbs.. They live in sandy soil so digging away is the #1 thing, they can dig 3ft per min.... Quote Link to post
