    When I first got into the terriers nearly every club or gang had their own shore and usually it was in someones back garden. We'd go out of a Sunday morning and bag one or two and for a couple of hours we'd school sounders and strongdogs and then in the evening the quarry would be brought back to where we dug them and released. IMO they didn't suffer to much and were always shown respect and were NEVER worked above the sod. This was the way a lot of lads done it and some lads even had shores of fully regulated size. LOL, some lads even had the shore blended perfectly into the lawn so that yo

    Long live him indeed Jigsaw and it would be a sad day when there's plenty around but no good ones. Breedings should always be done to make a breed better than it already is. Is that being done by everyone who breeds a heavy dog nowadays ????

    The stiff competition of the trials meant there was a high standard in the so called good ol' days. Nowadays if a so called strong dog pulls one out at the end (after travelling all of 18 inches) while screaming his head off he soon get his legendary status. The fact there's so called great wheatens in England say's it all. There's probably more wheatens now than ever before (because of the peddlers) but when they were fairly rare between the days of the trials ending and the wheaten becoming fashionable there were probably better wheatens because those that stuck with them worked them corre

    I disagree Danny.

    Have to agree with you Mustard, running dogs should do what it say's on the tin, run. Anyone who thinks that the end of a dig is some sort of test is fooling themselves and if someone who works a terrier can't get in there and take them out by hand then they shouldn't have terriers in the first place. There's probably less than a handfull of men left who know how to test a wheaten nowadays (I didn't mention staffs because their test is different). JMHO.

    looney,wind your neck in!!!!!! spindelero,yes you know exactly where this is going!!!!! Chris hickling claims to have used one in his "lurcher" breeding so im here to try and find 1 "genuine" working kerry blue that has produced this x? I know what kerry blues are and that even bk in the day were not taken serious as a working animal. Maybe you mr looney could tell us all of how many chocolate kerry blues you have seen???? A line of dogs built on bullshit and lies......the FACTS are here those with half an ounce of sense can see it. This topic was started to prove a point looney!! I kn

    I'm supprised you don't know of any Alcapone, you seem to think you know everything else. Imagine a so called "working dogman" asking about a breed that was only ever taken with a big pinch of salt by true workers of dogs.

    I could be reading your post incorrectly but did you dig to the terrier twice and then give him a look at the end of a dig after you dug to your friends terrier ? If so, then IMO you shouldn't have any terrier, man eater or not.

    Well done those kids, keep it up.

    Just out of interest lads, are the Irish fancy common in Britain? I've bred IF for around 10 years but there 2 a penny over here. I love them and they're a good singer too.
  15. neil cooney
    Yep, cider.

    Delicious. Can't understand how some folk only consider them for bait. They're one of our tastiest fish. This year I fished for them with single baits on light tackle as opposed to feathers, great craic and they can be a very sporting fish. Pity they don't grow to double figures, LOL.

    100% Hunt. I presumed he's looking to add a hound to a pack.
  18. neil cooney
    It's like any other breed of working dog or hound in that there's good and bad. But the fact that there's many a good huntsman loves the Welsh speaks volumes for the breed, even in some of the more famous mounted packs. And yes a good Welsh hound can be a great finder and marker.

    neil you seem to know a lot of dog thieves. why dose FIONN not come on here and clear this up or will i do it for him fionn told everybody at the show that day that DANIELS bought dogs from england in my eyes that makes him as bad as the thieves f**k Benji, your post is jibberish. I know OF a lot of dog thieves. Every one does. And then you say if someone BOUGHT dogs in England that makes them a dog thief. Do you know what the word bought means ??? Just wondering. I don't know anything about that incident (nor do I want to) so I wont comment on that. Fionn and the others mentioned I k

    OK Scent. Personally I know the man in Tramore that's been accused of stealing and I'd find it hard to believe. Especially as those that are making the accusations have been found to be full of bullshit in the past. One of the reasons I'm now slow to name dog thieves is because twice in the past I've helped lads out only for them to use my name to scum bags in the search for their dogs. Then I've scum bags ringing me up with death threats. I don't need that shit. The dogs in the street know that there's 2 well known thieves up in Armagh.

    right mate were do i start.he hates anyone else who has terriers or hunts near him he thinks every fox belongs to him.and basically he is a sour old trout.coniston has a better crowd better terrain and you would get a go with your terrier.my opinion anyway and prop a lot of local lads Sounds to me like he takes his hunting serious which is one of the trademarks of a good huntsman.
  22. neil cooney
    exactly is alot of shit stirring going on but for some reason no one wants to name the people involved ,i wonder why that is? I'd say it's because the biggest dog thief in the North of Ireland is a dangerous S.O.A.B. who think nothing of shooting you. And I heard he's in cahoots with another known b*****d.
  23. neil cooney
    Not to unlike what we used to call a Scotch cock. Over here we're not allowed to shoot hens and that's a colour I could never see becoming popular with game clubs, LOL.

    Very good, LOL. What do you call a woman with two arseholes ???? Jedwards mother.

    I picked 5 or 6 pounds of sloes this morning in half an hour. They were like grapes on a vine. If it's a sign that fruit is ripe when it easily twists off the branch then these sloes were very ripe indeed. If the old country tale that plenty of fruit on the hedgerow is a sign of a hard Winter then this year it looks like we're going back to the ice age. LOL. The beauty of sloes being ripe now is that there'll be sloe gin ready this side of Christmas.
