  2. quality pic mate, i like robins to me they are a good omen when you're on a dig, one always seems to turn up when the dig we're on is to a fox...
  3. what???you've had nothing?what dogs do you keep?
  4. I've heard from mates that bellman and flint are bringing out a new, smaller collar this year, does anyone know whether this is true? Ive had the other one for a couple of years and never had a problem with it?... YIS
  5. sounds like a good idea fellas, and with the season not being to far from finishing it gives us something else to do, count me in...
  6. the patterdale forum closed and won't be starting up again from what i gather...YIS....
  7. whats with the clever replies? He only put up a pic of his bitch and he gets jumped on...For the doubters...lets see your WORKING terriers.
  8. use your brain mate...he hasn't put pics of the quarry up for obvious reasons... good going dev and good pics...
  9. good post mate, its better to retire when the time is right than let them go senile and go 'off the boil' so to speak...
  10. nice dog mate, got one here same name and looks identical, hes a saluki/whip/grey. good luck with him mate....
  11. i dont think n.stevens has terriers anymore, anything about is diluted stuff...
  12. i know they're at wijnard and sedgefield, seen one a bit further north aswell, not far from me, shame we only had the little dogs with us...
  13. Never had any problem with the bellman , used it for two seasons, only time there was a hickup was when we had a bitch in a deep earth and there were some electric powerlines above us and the box kept picking up three little men in the bottom corner... also some say the collars too big but i've not known it to affect the dog in any way, one of a second season dog we dig to...
  14. you've got to be joking "roystoncrankted"....i've seen both beddy and collie crosses kill foxes..plenty of times... bull crosses are the most common fox killers, but i have one and know of other saluki crosses that nail(ed) them ...
  15. sorry to hear that, i hear she was a good 'un...
  16. quality chucky, that pic of the fox looking out is a belter
  17. whens the next one due out mate?
  18. quality post mate, theres nothing in the world that beats digging down to your terrier working his quarry, hope he carries on for you mate...
  19. quality reply there pip, i think if a dog fucks about once it should always be given a second chance as we dont know whats going on underground, all dogs have bad days. going back to the first post, i think a worker is born, whether it has easy digs to start off or hard digs, i think the main quality needed is stubborness, pure and simple, a terrier should just want to stay with his quarry no matter what, i have a patterdale here, hes no world beater but i get the tackle with him, ive had a few good digs with him, on easy and hard quarry, hes been quite a reliable young dog(so far), hes f*
  20. in my eyes a litter should only be bred if the lad who owns the bitch is wanting a pup or two for himself, i think as soon as you start having litters and selling all the pups you become a peddler, also it questions why the person doesnt want to keep a pup, maybe the parents aren't up to scratch?IMHO... this applies to both lurchers and terriers but most importantly terriers as people should have standards based on earthwork, however with lurchers some people strive for coursing dogs whereas others look for a deer dog etc etc...like i say, only my opinion...
  21. wel this goes to anyone then, why write something on a forum just to delete it?
  22. ripstop, why do you delete most of the things youve wrote?
  23. IMO dogs that are going to be getting used for digging should be kept well away from bunnies...they're a terriermans worst nightmare...
  24. ive got that one...i reckon it's the best one available...
