  1. some terriers are very vocal. i used to have a russell that bayed like a hound all through an earth. it was just his way. you new as soon as he was on. as his tone changed and he settled to a more frantic bay. i once broke through to him with a fox firmly fastened across his uper and lower jaw. he could'nt open his mouth but he was baying away like a good'n through clenched teeth . now a dog that bays at an empty hole and false marks is a different ballgame and no use to man or beast
  2. warched it this morning in the trossachs took a couple of pics but they never came out well
  3. fine looking dog. with or without papers i worked parsons for over a decade. worked like any other white terrier. dont know what they are like now
  4. i also have a half cross from parr stuff. similar type. solid looking dog
  5. 10 terriers not seen that many at a show never mind on a set must be a lot of clowns where you live mate lol well said Lot of clows all over. Was an exaggeration but you know what I mean. FTB
  6. there was a few russells up this way went back to ted adsetts dogs i had a bitch that was bred from them in the eighties. very small but well made little dogs. i think helen jones had one or two that went back to them also. blood will be long gone now did chapman not have some os his stuff years back?
  7. plummer. not on thr list. and russell. mostly topwork nowadays
  8. old timer do a handy little sheath with a gut hook. good quality. ive never liked the opinals. they do take a good edge but lose it just as quick. the steel is to brittle. buck knifes are a good knife and ideal for what you want it for. if your budget is 50. use it and get the best you can.
  9. oi hepher wind yer neck in there's feck all wrong with jackanory. the reason folk ask if the big fox give the dog stick is probably becouse often the big dog foxes dont put up as much resistance as a little vixen. i thought it was a good sensible topic well done tdj
  10. Especially fuckers from Greenhills....
  11. very nice type. much to early to enter a young russell in my opinion. but fingers crossed for you
  12. yea i remember them. i would read anything in those days. there wasnt much reading about and the www wasnt up and running then there was a fella used to write under the name of saxon in one of them what mag was it?
  13. cant add much to that. good enjoyable read. and i can relate to some of it sad early end to a promising young bitch.
  14. ive got one i gave it to a friend to have a look at it for me. and hav'nt seen him since. so they must be ok
  15. well we are out in it all hours. layed twelve lorries of concrete yesterday. putting up feed barriers and gates/doors tomorow life goes on here. the last two winters are the only bad ones in the last twelve. in scandinasa you can just about set your watches on the snow coming at the same time most years
  16. the way to do it is to breed terrier to terrier with the correct size. if you try to breed for small terriers you will get terriers that are to small and get pushed about. breed for average sized terriers and you will get just that. there will allways be variations in size and thats where i would want to source a smaller dog. or a larger dog for that matter. whippet is a non starter as far as i'm concerned worker to worker from workers. bred for the job
  17. sorry mate i cant help you there. try putting a wanted thread in livestock. or a thread in the lurcher section. good luck i hope you get sorted.
  18. he works with ferrets terriers and lamp. he is just a knock about lurcher for vermin he is twenty three inch to the shoulder. ive put his pics up on most wheaten cross grethound and a whippet wheaten thread. do a search for more info
  19. i run a first cross. there are a couple of threads further back with pics. try the search opyion mate ozzy
  20. had some russells off steve. a few years ago. good little fox dogs they where
  21. i have allways wanted a straight deerhound. but it wouldnt suit the way i hunt. i just like em.
