  1. Jack is just fine and doing very well. Still has his Borders too.
  2. Hiya. The first 3 Borders I had were males. I was asked on numerous occasions and MAINLY at game fairs for all of the dogs at times to be used at stud. It wasnt something I was interested in, (breeding) and the responsibility for me lies as much with the stud dog owner as it does with the bitches owner. My first bitch did go to ground a few times, out and out bayer only, good enough for me, and won well in the ring. She had a closed Pyometra at 15mths old and was spayed. she is still here, she will be 11 in July. Still goes ratting, still picks up. My next was another male, He is 6
  3. It depends what you want your dogs for. Years ago, I did a good bit of earth work, but I dont now. I dont want to. I still shoot, (squirrel, crow, maggie, jay and pigeon) go ratting, shoot (and retrieve of course) Squirrels almost on a daily basis. I use my borders to flush birds, pick up and retrieve, dispatch Squirrels and rats, and one is used to track blood scent. Very useful too!! I dont see why people should be ripped to shreds by others simply because they do not share the same feelings on any one subject, when the aim in it all ought to be a united front in support of ALL T
  4. Some fabulous photos on this thread, keep them coming. Couple of mine:
  5. Im sorry to disappoint you again, but I havent paid for a dog for many years. So the "wankers" you speak of (Im assuming you know them personally) didnt get a dime from me Im afraid. ​You do not know me, nor whether I would bred from any of my dogs regardless of where they, or the askers came from. Please do not make things up to support your argument. I am not sure why you keep slapping on the caps lock, its considered shouting on the internet. I hear you loud and clear, I just dont agree with you.
  6. Thank you for your remark, it speaks volumes..... but not about those whom you insult. Im not sure how one becomes a puppy peddler when they have never bred a litter in 20yrs of owning the breed? I will have to think about that one.
  7. Peddlar pics? You are simply demonstrating your ignorance now.
  8. Do they really? Would you call this dog fine headed? He is predominantly Dandyhow bred.
  9. Really pleased to hear he is doing better.
  10. Only because its a Border! Its fine to have smart tidy anything else, but a tidy Border means its a show dog!!
  11. Thank you Carp man and CS, much appreciated.
  12. Thank you all. Much appreciated, I like the colour version too this time.
  13. What great news!! Good to hear, well done!
  14. http://www.hyperdrug.co.uk/prodinfo.asp?number=GOLDEND&Variation= You can get these from any chemist. They are anti biotic eye drops. For humans though you understand.
  15. Lovely photos. Im ashamed to say I have NEVER seen a Kingfisher. The closest I got was seeing one the other side of the canal, on a fence, a little way in front of me. On closer inspection it was a cheese and onion crisp packed stuck on the barbed wire!! :shok:
  16. Thats very out of date now Gnipper and it uses female hormones which can cause issues in itself. MILLET. There is an EXCELLENT implant used widely now called "Suprelorin" It lasts for 6-12mths depending on which implant you use. I use it on two males here and they never look at the bitch in season. Their behaviour remains normal, their coats are unchanged (Border Terriers) they do not lose muscle mass, nor have they ever gained an ounce of weight. You can have it done again and again if you choose. You could have one implant each and if you like the effects, have the castration done a
