Well mate you are right its a good web site and I for one can assure you they do work their dogs as well as show them, they have working terriers in Finland France and several hunt kennels in the UK and here in Ireland just because they show at IKC shows does not mean the dogs are not good enough to work ask Eddie Chapman and Geoff Burnhill, you can catch up with them around the ringside at Crufts in March !!!! eddie chapman -- the man and his terriers have become a joke -- Why is eddie chapman and his terriers a joke ?

Seems to be doin the job in Finland now though Maybe he just needed to mature a bit more, he was young when he was first tried !

Whats a certificate of aptitude ?

Dont think you win anything at those KC shows not even prize money better off sticking to the hunt shows eh they dont show their dogs for prizemoney, best in show in crufts is only 100stg last i heard, its about making a name for yourself, its the reason some puppy farmers in the uk show dogs, i could mention names but i wont, the more dogs you have in the crufts catalogue the more buyers you have for your pups, its also the reason show folk drive to the most remote small championship dog shows in the country, even why uk show-owners come over here to enter their dogs into shows in irel

Yes, a show kennel that also work their dogs.
-
The Dooners do indeed hunt their terriers,and i know that they hunt with them in England, but i could not tell you where at or with who and they are indeed better known as a show kennel. My terriers are of the jappatin bloodline but i only do a wee bit of ratting sometimes, ( to old,to fat and the knees have gone !)the dogs they breed are smaller neater type than the normal leggy shit you see in the kc show ring,

have read plummers book, i think plummer himself thought his breed was an unfinished work,he seems to have been still working on improving his lines when he died.

thanks gents, what is the best for the foundation animal, dog or bitch ? and why ?

If a breeder was to start from scratch,say for instance using one stud dog with prehaps 10/12 unrelated bitches, would it be possible to produce a solid breed ? how far do you think you could line/in breed before an out cross would have to be brought in ? and would it be a dog or a bitch / what do you think gents ?
