he relies on other people telling him what they are taking e.g [fox,deer,hairs]so when you buy a pup he will tell you what that litter will take and so on.but for £250 a pup i would buy 1 from working stock so you no what ya getting
stay with ya borders you wont go wrong.alot of lads keep off them because people say they are slow to come on but they are no different to lakies or russles in my eyes but i woudnt work anything else,top little dogs and a good hardy breed
sometimes when the dog mounts the bitch his claws dig in to her side when he pulls her in that might be the problem.so you might need help to hold the bitch so the dog can do his job
i think i might start charging if he can get 20 for them i must of been a mug for years giving them away weather silver or albino but no good luck to ya lad if you are getting that.[im must be a loon]
i watched axel on one night he was a good dog and the lad who made the video was a nutter you couldnt stop laughing at him.they were from ashington area.good lads.my mate had a black and white bitch off david street on the 2nd vid they made and she done the job
they are a real hardy breed.they adapt to any life style and very seldom ale ailments.im just waiting to move home again and when we are settled we will be getting another pair in
that anna roslyn williams book is ok and it should of told you they were called the roxby terrier.ive worked borders for nearly 30yrs til i had to get rid because of a split and i dont think they are slow to come on all mine have grafted at 1yr old to ground but they are a good terrier if anything they are to hard,mine were laid up more than they worked.another good man who had them was geff feloronie from wales and his was hard dogs to but for me a border any time
