  1. All the ticks ive seen on foxes have been in the ears and huge .Nice trip out mate .
  2. Myself and another forum member went to have a look around a few small paddocks to look for a fox that has ripped open a cage and killed the farmers daughters pet rabbit! .The nights recently are very light and still ,too still for my liking but youve got to show willing as you all know .The farmer described the fox as being a large dog with a good white tip to the tail,as seen by his wife .The land here slopes away to a railway so we got ourselves to the brow and knelt down ,using a fence line as a backdrop .I squeaked whilst josh looked around with the lamp .I expected one to appear on the
  3. My advice would be to stay away from the dry at all costs Molly .Good luck with the treatment . Fd
  4. Seems to be MUCH easier stalking than you did down here .No wonder your forever killing something.lol. I look forward to it mate .That rutting stand is seeing some attention already like you said .Hopefully ,Ian will get back to me as to why I cant put up pics .I would hate to not be able to gloat ,I mean share my visit with everyone .
  5. My guess is this is if im not mistaken -The bitch is middle aged and was spayed young.Hormone imbalances have a part to play in hair loss which may have been the start of the balding .The vets first take is to throw steroids at it to control it whilst looking into it further .The bodies reaction to steroids shows firstly on the outside ,eg skin which will account for the spots .I bet the spots appeared a while into the steroid course and after the hair loss was mending nicely.My experience with steroids [not personally i might add] is that there is always a bad response somewhere to them in
  6. Lads -WATCH OUT FOR THE FOREND STUD PULLING LOOSE ON THOSE TIKKA'S.ESPECIALLY WITH THE BI-POD FITTED . foxdropper
  7. ..................If thats the case then quince jelly will take some beating .
  8. Talk sense yes ,ramble on about bollocks, no................ lol.
  9. Does anyone want to reply to my previouas post or are you all to far up your own arses .IS THERE ANY OLD NUTTAL BLOOD LEFT THAT IS KEPT TIGHT AND DOES THE BIZZ . I need new blood of this type or I will be forced to look elsewhere .Pm me .
  10. Enough talk of what the new stuff wont do .Anybody still keeping solid ,honest types of yesteryear.This is a type worthy of preservation and one of which i'm keen to locate fresh blood through the use of a proven stud dog .Something wrong with my uploading ,or i'd put up pic of what I mean .Archives will show you! . foxdropper .
  11. Nice study there mate ,of something we all take for granted .
  12. There are some tightly bred terriers of his old stuff about but finding suitable outcross is becoming harder .Noticable dog aggression in a lot of the stuff I know about !.Wouldnt entertain a pup direct from him now as fashion and money has swayed the path of work .To be honest ,the last outcross was to a Wheeler dog of tested history and the resulting litter will be tried this winter .Good luck to all this coming season . Foxdropper .
  13. Just got back from the show.Appalled to see a women from the kennel club judging the terriers .Didnt look like she'd done much digging to me ?. Never laid a hand on the dog and muttered to me "oh dear " at her scars ,"has she been fighting ".You couldnt make it up .
  14. Would the nailed rat be allowed .What im saying is ,pegged from nose to tip of tail to get the ultimate reading or is this open to abuse ?.
  15. If p***y is saying his dog will do 5 in a day ,any day then thats the bit I would question too ?. Butler -100 digs a season to one dog ,thats just over a dig every 3 days.For a dog that dosnt get smashed and is in its prime then its well do-able .Must take into consideration that some will be in and outers and not all dayers though . Maybe you need to look and listen too! .
  16. 60 replies and only 3 relating to starting a terrier! .Thats why I look on here as theres never a dull moment . If Im right and p***y says his terrier has 300 digs and its 5 years old then that easily feasable ,even starting at 2 years that 100 digs a year and thats no great feat .Like he said there are lads that dig 7 days a week and are doing more than that to test a dog .What makes me chuckle is the 15 year old that thinks he has ANYTHING to say on the subject .Do what I did at that age and LISTEN to your elders .Take in what you need to know and disregard the rest . foxdropper .
  17. Another fox shot mate ?.Better get some f*****g good dvds in hadnt you,lol .Seroiusly mate ,good work .
  18. Here in Wiltshire ,gods own country,we have hundreds of hedgehogs .They are not endangered here . My terriers have developed a taste for killing them with every generation teaching the next !.They are not the strict worm and slug eaters you would expect ,they are very much opportunists ,as are most creatures and will tackle frogs and chicks if given the chance .They can and will climb a vertical wall albiet in a corner .Once dug a ferret that wouldnt leave a hedgehog in a rabbit hole .To be honest ,i didnt even know they were protected and have trapped a great many over the years,using the bo
  19. Ditch-Most of the nests ive found have been through sitting still and watching where parent birds are flitting to but this does tend to reveal chicks as opposed to eggs .
