My terriers push out of cover,with the big b*****d lurchers in attendance,when the lurchers are in attendance when the quarry as run to ground i expect the terriers to do their job of work,if it could not fulfill that part of its work id cull it,or the lurcher that could not graft with the terrier.You will never need to try a terrier at earthwork,it should come natural,again if it does not its a fecking cull,if they do whats wanted on your endeavours,fair play,id not feed one of them.

Are they terrier based?.IF they are id shoot them,terriers bred from honest hunting stock will bush better than piss poor breeding and also enter,if its a terrier id want it to do terrier work,above and below,if it refused to enter its a cull,end of. yes they are and i have no reason to shoot them, theyre bushing dogs, wouldnt want them dropping to ground every five mins. thats not what i want them to do, theyre job is to drive quarry out of cover for the lurcher and to mark holes when ferreting. theyre very good at the job and wouldnt want anything different to be honest. might not suit

I own bushing terriers,Bedlington based,if they did not go to ground id shoot them,if you want a busher that will not enter,then source a non entering type of busher,not rocket science is it?.

We are talking about beer,not the company you keep after drinking it.

Landlord as competed and beaten the best of British brews for over 50 years,there are some fantastic micro-breweries about now,especially in the Aire valley,its a water thing.English beer is as complex in flavour as any European Ale,the Europeans believe if its stronger its tastier,which is a fallacy,they also believe drinking a pint of strong Ale in an evenings session equates to a British drinking mission when copious amounts of Ale registers better than a few sips on stronger fare.When we equate the strength of the Ale before the amount sunk,then we are in European mode,thank feck i was bor

I remember a trip to Volkenburg in Holland and the locals with their favourite brew,a dark ale that was 14 percent,the locals bent my ear about the English drinking pissy beer that was about 4 percent,whilst they spent the evening sipping about 2 half pint bottles of their treacle beer, the English at the watering hole consumed a large amount of the local lager,the landlord was of the opinion he wished he owned an English boozer with English customers.

The beer that as won more rewards than any other,Timothy Taylors Landlord,im not putting this forward as im from Keighley,ive tasted beer all over Britain,Europe and Australia,the Australians have some sorted brews,the Europeans have many more,England as the best and Landlord is as good as you can brew it,nuff said.

The best ever fox repellant is wire,especially if it is made into a loop,lead works but is time consuming,terriers work well enough,yet they need to find them,wire works 24hrs a day,even if you piss on it.

I usually have a collar on one of them,even on land that i know well,on fresh grass it would be stupidity to not have the main mutt collared.The rest of the team,1 if we follow the restrictions of the Hunting Act,should be collared if possible,not everybody as enough collars,especially with a decent crew that work less restrictive.1 collar is better than none.
-
The majority of Bedlingtons ive worked have been far from mute,noisy feckers,above and below,plus ive rarely owned one with a jacket worth mentioning,something Bedlingtons are renowned for.I owned a dog a couple of years ago that would not rein in,hit a scent and tally-ho,then many hours to locate the ignorant twat,he,s now a pet,the vast majority of the ones ive bred and grafted are perfectly biddable and rarely get lost on their bushing forays.
-
IF,you knew what you think you know,id be worried,my bird does not own an hanbag,he owns a Snap on tool box,with pics of Bedlingtons adorning it.

To See one video of nuggets working their terriers is not a representation of how the majority of terrier lads graft and conduct themselves,the hunting ban came about because of ignorance and a prejudice of hunting and hunters,whatever persuasion or level of expertise the hunting was conducted under.The Bedlington is,at times,seen as the easy target in search for poor hunting practice from second rate hunters and 3rd rate jukels,the facts are the Bedlington suffers possibly less from the fools and nuggets than some more recognised breeds,possibly because there are less of them,the terrier worl

Im just back from London picking up a new truck and my shoot is on a farm that has 350000 free range layers and got a call from farmer they lost hens last night .....so will go and have a look at the usual spots ...so better get the water proofs on as you wouldnt put a milk bottle out in this ...pissin down up here ...this wont be much fun .then out with the night vision tonight I realise you live down in the sticks Mik,yet id have thought a good Scottish dealership may have furnished your needs,c,mon England and our London dealerships,or is it the dumb Capital was not prepared for a ca

Why?,the fecking breeding of any useful hunting dog is irrelevant,its how it hunts thats the most important factor.So a terrier that looks and works like a Bedlington as a little Lakey in the mix,whoopy fecking do,the majority of honest bred Lakey,s had some Bedlington in their heritage,wake up and smell the roses pal,its how it grafts and not how its bred.The Bedlingtons about that graft with any sort of honesty have Fell in the mix,they better represent the terrier of old that was called a Bedlington than the KC nonsense bred now,Im so glad they are not the type of dog that the nuggets adher

If its your own dog you can do whatever the feck you want to do with it,especially away in the countryside with like minded muckers and blunt shovels,politics is the domain of weak willed souls that have no place in an hunters lifestyle,hunt and be fecked or be fecked and hunt.
-
Politics and hunting are poor bedfellows.

Ill guarantee that input of yours as "NO FOUNDATION" borne from experience.Ive owned countless bushers over the years and i cannot think of any terrier entered right that would not make an excellent bushing companion.Yet the terrier that stands out for me is the Beddy and its hybrids,it as a certain edge that no other type offers,i base that on experience with bushers over 30 years and not crass naivety.Any dog bred to bush,Spaniels,Beagles and terriers will do the job with distinction,there is no "BEST" to be had,thats a fallacy better fitting the nuggets about,they all do a job of honest gra

And the farmer will then get somebody without a tickly cough and naive conscience to do a mans work,the sign of a good terrierman is their reluctance to take satisfaction from the dirtier tasks the naive shun.
-
Thats naive,shooting land is often "out of bounds" in the shooting season,it can only be entered when the shootings done,which is when the recognised season is over.Its not a task many undertake with a sense of hunting satisfaction,yet is part and parcel of recognised terrier work.

As a youngster i was out and about with various bushing jukels,some better than others,in attendance where a couple of old lads with their home made catapults.What i learnt from an early age is anything flushed out of cover was better covered by a gun or a lurcher.
