Was there not bull blood in d.wheeler's line of terriers.
-
We dont just breed from what ever is about.The patterdale dog we used was about 9 year old and tried and tested to a very high standard week in week out not just an odd dig here and there.The staff bitch was also well tried an as ive said before on here was dug to on several occasions being she is only a small bitch but very game.Just look at a lot of the black dogs been bred today with big bully heads on them and say there is no bull blood in them.With selective breeding there is noting wrong with the bullx,there's plenty of shite been bred with patterdale's at the minute from people breeding

At the end of the day most working terriers have bull blood in them of some persentage from years back.There's nothing wrong with a bullx some are good steady diging dogs and most work to a very high standard.I seen some great bullxrussells work in my time and i have a bullxpatt at the minute which is a very usefull little dog.As far as hard goes people differ on their opinions on hard,as long as they stay till dug thats what matters.Nobody wants a dog that goes in fights its quarry for 20 minutes and comes out in a mess.I have owned and seen black dogs that were a lot more stuped than any bul

I used to love fishing at night then i got caught and they beat the bollox out of me and i got fined almost a grand,that sort of took the good out of it.Wont say i still do it but wont say i dont.

Terrier man mark do you ever wonder why you get so much stick on thl with statements like that you deserve it,just think if your capable of thinking for a minute before you make such silly shite statements.

Again the last one would be fed the first would be hungry again,haha,500 pitbulls f**k me how would you get around them all to even see what you had let alone to start training and conditioning them.

Lovely looking lake gav,what other species are in it apart from trout.
-
Agree with ye there fella but when something has been dug before and its at 3ft or 4ft the dogs obviously tested less than something at 8ft or 10ft ,the depth aint the factor its the time the dogs to its quarry i think the lads are trying to say Dog should still hold its quarry until dug to,dont matter what dept or how long it takes,let it be 5ft or 5 hours they should still be there at the end.
-
Its when your diging to quarry that has been dug before and dont want to be dug again thats when the dog is tested.Dog has'nt got a tape measure down with him he dont know what dept it is.

Had she a locater coller on when she went to ground as i cant see one.
-
So you hav'nt been caught yet,kinky git.
-
How do you know there was nothing home,just because she came out dont mean it was empty,she may not have been able to find with little experence of earths,as you say it was her first time to travel.

stud fee how do they work in your eyes?
fat man replied to x38's topic in Earthdogs & Working Terriers
What billy says is true,and if you give a stranger a service and the litter come no good well its the dog that will be at fault regardles whether the bitch was any good to start with.They will also bad mouth you and your dog to all in their circle and outside it because they will never say the pups took after the bitch.The best thing to do is keep it among the lads you dig with then you know whats what and only breed when needs must.jmo. -
Is there such a thing as a working terrier show anymore,apart from the westmeath hound lurcher..terrier show last year the rest were crap.Dogs been walked around a ring that i would bet have never done a days graft in there lives.I remember the first show in ballinlough maybe 18 to 20 year ago,when NUTTAL JUDGED i was asked to put a terrier back in the trailer because he had signs of work on him,and that was by a well known terrier man fron the north,so just goes to show how long the working terrier world is f****d up by the show ponies with there kc shite.

think shes about 7 months Nice bitch bud.good size quarry for geting them started.

What age is the pup.

Yes I saw you win Waterloo cup with it No buddy i never kept coursing ghounds all trackers...WANKER.

Thats more bullshit mosby,any otter i have seen dead from road kill are in the 4ft range from head to tip of tail.Now goin back to your mates dogs you said the otter buzzed through THEM like a chainsaw leaving several dead.How many dogs were on the game and it must have had a ak47 not a chainsaw to leave several dogs dead.I have only dug the 1 and bolted 1 but the 1 i dug the terrier in question worked it as he would work fox or badger and it was a very big dog otter.They are better than fox but i would not count them in the same league as badger all pre ban of coarse.
-
Does it really matter what colour it is or what breed you associate it with as long as its bred to work.This thing off fell.patterdale.lakeland.beddy.border why not just call them all working bred terriers and safe all the arguements.
-
Mosby you say an otter buzzed through your mate's dogs killing several of them,how many were to ground with it and what were they.I personally think thats pure bullshit as an otter is not as hard as badger,or as tough skinned and if this did happen which i doubt very much then your mates dogs must be shite earth dogs.When you look back at some terriers that were used for diging otter,what you have said is pure nonsence.Ok their tough and as fast as fox to hit underground,but any decent terrier should be well fit to hold one at bay.JMO.

The old dog i had here was practacially blind and would latch onto anything that came within reach.
-
I would love to know if he still has stuff with that old black.n.tan dog blood in them,Has he ever mentioned him to you,he was another top dog,big but could get to his game no bother.I put him across the BLUE.N.TAN bitch i had but she never held which was a pity as she was a good bitch.Im sure RK could arrange a field for the show,he has enough of them haha.
-
Yeah GE kept a good line of terrier as long as i know him.He dug up here on one of his first times over with a couple of lads from athboy.He also had a dog called one eyed bob,seen him dug to and he was one hell of a dog.
-
That dog was as blue as you could get keven,stripped out or not.The dog did not need striping out as it had a tight harsh coat.He also had more in kennels the same.Dont know what the sire or dam was but i bought the dog at almost 5 year old and lost him about 4 year ago this year.GM said he was selling all of his adult dogs that time as he had plenty young stuff of them that had just started.I think there is 1 of that same litter up dublin direction not sure.I also remember the lakeland stud dog gm used about 15 year ago when he lived up in meath.He was a big black.n.tan dog also very hard,and
