Nice dog him. What age is he ?

Not sure if he’s taking the piss or not, not too worried either. I’m the one feeding them and picking up their shites?

That’s a terrier pup at the front. One at the back is a lurcher

Terriers how many digs in a single season
sionnach99 replied to Fox dog's topic in Earthdogs & Working Terriers
Are they still down off the old stuff you had that you used to dig to? Not many working borders about nowadays . Some of those Levi Oakes terriers looked handy animals in there day. Atb sionnach -
Working wheatean terriers any about
sionnach99 replied to Daviddavies's topic in Earthdogs & Working Terriers
For me a bull grey with a touch of collie suits my needs perfectly. There are men in this country using collie bull greys and I would really like to see someone who kills more foxs than them. I know of 60+ a season single handed dogs. I doubt there are many Irish terrier crosses or Kerry blues that would hack it. -

Maybe there is a few good ones about but personally I think there are far better crosses that are tried and tested. Why would anyone get a kerryblue cross when there are bull crosses about?? Each to their own I guess. People will keep what works and what produces. Maybe u could get a one hit wonder Irish terrier or Kerry blue cross but I don’t hear of many lads keeping the type and breeding them with much success ?? Again just my opinion -

Do you still keep borders? -
I’d imagine there’s very few genuine first crosses about. Proper ones anyways.

U can’t put a number on how many digs another mans dog should have. It Depends on there working style. Whoever owns the dog will know how they work and will know how much he can and would like to get out of it in the season. U can only dig them when there fit to be dug. -
Tough going today, first dig of the season for me to a second season bitch. Done very well in a big spot. Tried a couple nothing at home, decided we would try one more before we headed home. Dropped her and she was on quickly. Got a mark in the middle of 10 foot high briars under neath a fallen ivy tree. Took a good while to get in and get the place cleared. It was only about a metre so we Started to dig in the lashing rain and hit layers of shingle rock. Could only chip a layer out with the graft and scoop out the loose stuff. Broke through about 2 hrs later . Back to my mates house for dinne

Lots of shite up on that old country blood page. A mate of mine sent in pics of two wheaten x’s and he used the pics no problem , then the dogs both useless and he used his pics without asking a two years on gloating about the dogs and wouldn’t take them down. There’s pics of ‘strong dogs’ on it that wouldn’t pull the socks off a dead man. All he wants is Kerry blues??- 49 replies
