    and a fine looking bitch where i come from they call that cross a 'bull and fox'. Thanks! Are there many dogs crossed like that over there? here an EBT cross is scarce.

    here are a few shots of the back. if anyone has any info on this plate, the artist, or the dog pictured on it, i'm very interested. thanks

    nice looking gyp, I imagine she'll be unstoppable at two or three years old!

    The avatar pic is of one of my females, Darby. Her sire is a Jack Russell, and her dam was an English Bull Terrier. She's a beast! Normally I keep her around 25 lbs., but in the pic she's at a mean 22

    the back of the plate is stamped in black CAULDON with England written smaller underneath. there is also a large stamped black 6. Finally, in red it says L 6742 B the dog sure has some ragged ears. Looks like a worker. I wonder if it's a specific dog or more of a generalization?

    I collect dog related antiques, and my wife surprised me with this antique dog plate. the back is marked Cauldon England and the front is artist signed G. Pedersen. I guess it's around 100 years old.

    Sounds good if they're all workers, but you might consider breeding her back to either a patt or a border rather than introducing a third type (russell). The 3/4, 1/4 cross is a proven breeding pattern that will produce the 3/4 side consistently with the 1/4 out to spice things up. So, if you bred the Patterdale/Border back to a patterdale for example- you'd have 3/4 patterdale and 1/4 Border. Or if you bred her to a Border you'd have 3/4 Border 1/4 Patterdale. This way you'll get more consistency. JMO

    What's with the merle? Adding the Merle coloration to a line of working dogs seems counter-productive. You're not just adding the "cool looking" coloration- merles are plagued with genetic defects.

    or a nail Either way it's not the right tool for the job

    It is possible to drive a screw with a hammer, but you're better off with a screw-driver.

    I think a breed, type, or even a strain, is pure when it breeds true to type for whatever the breeder sets as his ideal. I also don't think you can say it takes x number of generations to get a pure line. While one breeder may advance a line or breed very fast using quality animals and making informed breeding decisions- others may breed for years-a lifetime even, and make little to no improvement to their line/breed. So, there are too many variables to say purity can be had in a certain # of generations. Some people are constantly advancing, while others may be doing the same dumb shit for ye

    Maybe I'm biased- being from Kansas, but actually, Toto doesn't look half bad...

    thats 1 of the nicest dogs i have seen has she seen much mate? thanks a lot, she's a great locator, and she's caught a little of everything since I got her last spring. All above ground- barns, abandoned houses, culverts, brush piles, etc. she's a beast!
  15. KawValley
    I've posted pics of her before, but here's my JRT X EBT bitch Darby. two years old and 22 pounds
  16. KawValley

  19. KawValley

    great looking dogs. the black and tan had A LOT more black on it's head as a pup, eh?
  21. KawValley
    yesterday I took her to a nearby lake and she killed a 'possum. took her back today and my wife brought a camera but we didn't catch a thing. still took some pics though. ^The END
  22. KawValley
    she's not spannable, and really too big for most earths, but she's good for culverts, barns, abandoned houses, brush piles, etc. as far as what she hunts- anything unlucky enough to get caught
  23. KawValley
    Yeah, the dam was a show bred EBT that was given to some hog hunters because she didn't show well- "too terrier in type and overly dog agressive" Her sire is JRT from working lines, but I've no idea of the bloodlines
  24. KawValley
    I think he said Bull X Russell mate yeah, her dam was an English Bull Terrier that was eventually killed on hog hunt in Arkansas, and her sire is a little Jack Russell. My bitch is as crazy as they come, and if it moves- she wonders what it tastes like A very easy bitch to work

    The problem isn't the uninformed pet-owners or the dogs; the problem is the breeder that should know better, selling to pet homes to make money. JMHO
