Think about it logically, what do you think happens to the hair, does the panic set in at the follicle or mid hair just after it's been cut ? Does the hairs molecular structure change because it's been cut absolutely no where near the follicle ? It doesn't make sense because it's bollox

No it doesn't, how in Gods name could it ? I always shave every terrier in the garden if they have a coat that needs it, NEVER ONCE has it made a coat soft.........it's a myth made up by show shit idiots

When someone comes up with a remedy for nose hairs please get in touch, I hand strip those b*****ds and boy does that hurt, they grow back even when ripped out by the roots ?
-
So it never grows back then ? And why would clipping a dog change the direction of the hair growth or type of hair when all you are doing is cutting the hair ? The hair grows from the follicle in the dermis, how do you imagine that cutting what's above the skin would change the genetics or process of growth under the skin ? Surely it's more detrimental to yank out hair while hand stripping, each to their own. I've clipped every terrier I own since jesus was a kid, not a bad coat on the yard. Shaving dogs however doesn't keep them cool, it has the opposite affect.

That's me all but finished on the moles, roll on the wasp season and may the rats breed like only rats can.

If they were C section then as daft as it sounds the bitch won't recognise them as her own. Put a muzzle on her, let the pups feed while you hold the bitch steady and she'll take to them within a few days. I just lay my bitch down, put my hand on her head to keep her down and steady and let the pups help themselves

I had exactly the same a few years back, my bitch killed 4 pups in seconds after we put her with her pups......on the advice of the vet ! I got her muzzled and fed the pups by putting them with her while she was muzzled. I cleaned them and made them piss and shit for three days, she soon came around to them. You'll see when she starts to take an interest in them, just have a bit of patience.

I'm not having it, we all know each other through the network of the gossip circles, and I'll stick to my former statement. .........no such thing as a consistent line or family of Lakelands

I've had the good fortune to own a few that lasted into semi retirement, Bosun is right, after beating myself up about the earlier dogs in my career IMO It's much kinder to limit where and when you work them. They don't know they're old and tired, the drive that's in them will frustrate and destroy them watching you get out with the younger dogs, it's much kinder to limit their work and to keep their place on the team.
