  1. plummer in the field
  2. i judged it many years ago. an old gentleman gave me a swearing for smoking between classes. said it made some dogs jumpy. on hindsight i reckon he was right. cracking little show well worth a look. .
  3. are folk that keen that they are still going on about a race that ran TWO YEARS AGO. cheating is part and parcel .of the dog world at every level. in every activity if you dont know this you are one of very few indeed. always has been always will be the greengrasses of the dog world. this is only one of many reasons i wont race my lurchers
  4. i.m of the opinion that if a dog dosnt use its voice its flawed. i dont mind bull blood but like a terrier to be able to get to a fox so size and build is an issue . as is nose. to much bull tends to make a terrier to chesty and to hard for what i would want. i also think a lot of bull as been added . that is the wrong sort. as some believe that any bull terrier will give what they need. coat type and pelt can suffer also. i wouldnt look for bull in terriers. but i wouldnt knock it either.
  5. becouse cowardly people. are born that way. no amount of training will make a coward into a brave man brave men are born brave. i also believe the idea is unworkable in todays society. an incentive based volenteer system would be prefarable. with better benefits for volenteers or lower benefits for those who dont fancy it.
  6. I THINK IT WOULD BE A BACKWARD STEP. this country wouldnt benefit from forcing kids to join up against there will.
  7. But you know as well as me if this man was a junkie and not ex army it would have been ok to lock him up and throw away the key.He's not though he was once a decent man who now has mental health problems.He didn't hurt anyone and there was never any chance he would do so,so how can the same government that is responsible in small part for his troubles today justify punishing him? Helping him is different,against his will if necessary. Go and point a gun at police out your window and see what happens too you. I've seen crazy tramps/addicts threaten to stab and kill police lots of times,the la

  9. on paper its england. by a country mile. 2/1 to england.
  10. a good un scoops up the shit aswell mine is just average then.
  11. anyway all other things aside. what the fcuk is wrong with letting the wife feed the dogs. not that i would ever do that mind
  12. The only person with any understanding of what makes a lines good or bad .nice post mate was going to but you saved me the trouble . The dog is the most important ingredient in creating a line and not just a one off but that said GOOD bitches need to be covered by it. i think both sexes being of a good quality has been agreed by most posters. but if i was to start out in terriers again. the first thing i would look for is a very good well bred . BITCH. tell me what i dont understand and i may be persueded to take a dog.
  13. Yes, I wont work a bitch in season i wouldnt work a bitch in season due to risk of infection. the reason i asked was years ago i had a good little bitch. done a fair bit with her. she let me down twice. once was not long after losing a litter in a c/section. and then again a couple of seasons later after a false pregnancy.. apart from these two times she was spot on i always rated this bitch despite the two cock ups. ive often wondered if folk notice a different workstyle coming up to the season.? cheers
  14. when working a bitch . would you make exeptions for hormones. (serious question).
  15. whats your take on it mr bates. these are just folks opinions. have you an opinion on this subject. ??
  16. six or seven seasons before breeding . stuff and nonesence. a dog or bitch could walk at any time. if you dont trust your dog/bitch after a couple of seasons. will you ever? it all seems a little over the top to me. how many regularly worked dogs last that long. what if you wait till your terrier is 7 or 8. to find out its no lead in its pencil. regular work can prematurely age a terrier. bitches of that age after a heavy working life will be more likely to have problems welping. if you have a good line of workers would you be willing to chance missing out on a litter due to not trusting the
