  1. I know a few that used them as all rounders mate from beating,retrieving and digging.I would put a good border against any spaniel for nose
  2. That’s the old saying that goes around about borders mate from these videos there’s idiots that’s never owned 1.I always say treat them like a lakie patterdale or Russell pups they will work from a early age.But if you listen to the loons and leave them in a kennel until they are 3yrs old you have ya work cut out.I think a lot of people want world beaters in lurches or terriers by the time they are 11mths old mate.A lot of terriers that’s smashed to bits and never rest 100% jack because there wounds are still sore to the touch just like what happens to us.If left a few months to heal properly
  3. These are the ones that was mute but the bitch with the young dog was nice and steady,the old dog I lost to ground in winter when we broke through he was dead.I think he had a fit of something so I put the young dog in to finish both foxes this was about 25yrs ago.ive had borders 37yrs now and never fancied any other breed.
  4. I’ve only ever had 1 baron bitch mate and she was a hard dog.I was gutted that I couldn’t keep anything off her mate that was about 25yrs ago.She was mute to and had no pain barrier
  5. My last 2 dogs I dug with were mute and just ran straight in and locked on.Thats why I used to only get 4 digs a season mate,but my bitches we’re nice and steady
  6. They are 9mths old now mate,there noses are never off the floor senting things.
  7. I’ve lost 2 over the years for been to hard and only 4 digs a season with them.Its trying to get them to pace themselves when they are like that.
  8. These are coming on well and are as fit as fire from all the hikes up the wainwrights and climbing 4000ft and 14miles,the little shits would go around again when ya get back to the car as I can’t tire them
  9. Jesus I wasn’t expecting to come on here and see this.RIP and condolences to his family

  11. I’m debating to have a look and take the pups if I can get this soil over to mine by then
  12. That’s cos that will never be my dreams,I cockle just brushing my tongue
  13. My mate has a deerhound xgreyhound beardiexgreyhound it’s had hares and a few rabbits but shitloads of roe.Thats all he is interested in big stuff
  14. He used to be a copper to,had my pic took with him at school when I was 11.
  15. Mine done everything you wanted them to do mate,I only put the whippet blood in to bring the size down.The pup I kept had its 1st roe at 11mths old,but they are know to be late matures and people who have had them,want a world beater at 12mths old thinking they mature like ya bullx and others.But like chats says you get good and bad in all breeds.
  16. Ya might be using the wrong type of traps mate,them old wooden ones are shite with the pin in the middle.Get on eBay and buy some decent ones mate and make sure the bait is fastened on tight,so they can’t just lift it off
  17. Wasn’t that him that was selling them putang mole traps
  18. They were bred for fowl mate so yeah I can imagine it
  19. I’ve always said any dog will work it’s up to you to put the graft into it mate.But if I had her from a pup I would of probably had her retrieving pigeons and duck no problem.I think she would try on a rabbit to
  20. This would hunt mate its goes mad for the squirrels in the wood and mad for ducks and geese’s on the ponds
  21. Nearly 8mths now and coming on a treat,the cockerpoo isn’t mine before anyone says owt
