    There is hope folks and we as parents bringing up our kids as we do will know that when they're older ,whether they hunt or not, will be head and shoulders above their associates if an emergency or such should ever arise. They''ll be stronger for it.

    Mik tried with his Patterdale ? IMO he did a bloody good job. That little terrier did some retrieves that a Lab owner would be envious of. Over this side of the world we tend to specialise more with our dogs than turn them into the Jack of all trades that the Europeans and Yanks do. I've shot pheasant, ducks and rabbits over JRTs and Fell terriers and I've a friend who has used his chocolate terrier to track wounded deer but personally I'd never be happy hunting large country with a dog running loose that was bred to work underground. Unless of course I had two shovels in my hand and a coll

    One of the best terriers I ever had early in his career would check earths at 1000 mph and passed quarry a couple of times. He was like a headless chicken and a scatter brain. He settled down and became very reliable. I'd rather see that than a terrier that looks over cautious going in. Also when a young terrier fails to find or comes away I never ask them a second time. I'd collar up a worker and let it go making sure the youngster see's the other terrier going. It might think twice next time about coming out and ones that do come off (not saying your terrier did) by asking them to g

    Funny you should say that Danny but a few ladies over the years have told me that if I was to sell my body I'd be a millionaire in no time.

    Used to dig every Sunday with a lad who lived only 20 minutes from me. We'd only be in the field when his wife would be ringing him just to say hello. In a mornings hunting she'd ring him 2 or 3 times and it was always luvvy duvvy shite. I lost the head with him one day when he was crowning through to a terrier and stopped to answer the phone to his wife (to tell her he loved her like he had an hour previously) and I grabbed him by the coat and pulled him out of the hole. If the quarry had got by the terrier he'd have been the first to call the terrier a wanker. But we were digging on

    Right lads, I sense a rebellion coming on. A rising. It's time we terrier lads told the women in our lives that we've had enough nagging. So lads, which of us is going to tell them. I can't, I'm busy that day.

    The truth is that hunting is a disease and that's a fact that women and governments should remember.

    Yep, seen loads of marriages breaking up over the dog game and seen the best of dogmen pack it up over some woman who'd still run off with some other lad who's bank account was bigger. If women had brains they'd know the difference between a lad coming in late at night half pissed after watching the game with his mates and a lad coming in after being gone all morning, covered in mud and washing a terrier in the kitchen sink.

    Was it Floyd B. that ran a lot of conventions with wives and children welcome because he was seeing so many marriages breaking up over the dogs? Personally I blame women. OK, if a lad takes up dogs after he's married then herself has an argument, but if he had dogs when she met him then she shouldn't try and change him. But they do. Women have it in their heads that they'll turn a man in to the man she wants and not the man he wants to be and then the marriage breaks up. So to sum up my argument, Women in the dog game are the poison, LOL.

    And keep an eye on yourself too. I've caught the mange from a fox and then unfortunately gave it to the whole family. The kids were only toddlers at the time and it wasn't nice. I scruffed the fox at the end of a dig and his head and neck were normal but as I lifted him his body was bald. Yuk.

    Your an expert Pabs. You give him your advice. Not your address ,just advice.

    Good man Danny, it's great that a fellow hunter should look out for one another against that sort of degrading ,disgusting filth. And Danny because I live within an hour of yourself it alarms me that that sort of thing could be happening near me. SO, Danny, ol' buddy, ol' friend, could you just happen to send on the details to me (PM of course) where you seen this terrible sign. Thanking you in advance.

    Pat, you say the terriers a bit hard, "the way you like them," Let's not waste anymore time on here with anti type questions.
