It’s not the end of the world.
no phones …. No pics… no FB.
farmers and keepers have a job to do
and it’s been the same situation for many a year.
I’ve said it before and been laughed at but an open forum is just that.

JP still gets out more than most albeit on a Quad.
doesn’t sell dogs either to best of my knowledge.
SF’s books are hard to read as he cant write…,it’s all one long sentence.
he’s made a pretty penny out of his books though.
hunts a pack of beagles now so I’m told
I’m no hound man to be honest.
the little hounds I know hunt anything .
they will hunt fox , but will hunt Roe.
nice little things if you can keep them on your chosen quarry.
Can’t answer the question regarding any added
hunting quality .

I did presume the reply would be defending Russell’s ?
your probably right DC , but also working style.
everyone seems to prefer harder dogs , where as older terrier men maybe preferred a steadier dog with a bit more self preservation.
NA at the Pembroke had 10 inch Russell’s and they were fine
on hunt days when I was visiting

Tried to get one myself to be honest
they don’t look as obvious as the blacks
Couldnt afford one in the end… or at least justify
the price tag
Still like a bit of border in my cross breds
If it’s the same Tyson…. I saw it once
had a bad day this particular time and we got
it with a small Russell
no doubt it did work but tight earth called for a pipe cleaner dog.
We were following DB’s Waen if I remember right
be 12 yr ago ?

You will need a kennel full if you’re out every week ?
only seen a couple that actually were worth feeding
but they were a bit on the hard side
goof terriers mind

I know at least ……. ? 4 ?
strange world the dogs but it’s the same regardless of breed .
gun dogs are the worst , if you’re not in the crowd , you ain’t in?.
it’s all bollocks , in my view anyway
ATB … T
He’ll make a nice dog for someone
my first dog was a bull terrier and I kept Stafford’s for quite a few years. I’ve a soft spot for them both.
you need to know what you’ve got and adapt.
mine never got me into too much bother bar they odd scrap
not bred for brains the EBT, not in my experience anyway.
